I don't really have any digital sources. Listening to a few records today was pretty good really, but there was a bit of boom and some sibilance up top. My current active crossover is sucking volume too so I reckon I've pretty much convinced myself. MiniDSP it is.
I think you’ll like it, dragging the frequency curves around and hearing the results is good fun, unless as you said you lose the analogue feel to the sound. I wouldn’t know as I only stream music.
You could do the free trial of Roon and play with the DSP settings for digital sources to see if you like what it does.
