Do any McIntosh preamps have non digital filter for bass and treble?


It seems that the preamps of McIntosh all have digital bass/treble adjustments which are digital filters. Does McIntosh pre amps have any bass/treble adjustments that are not digital filters?

Any model with 5 or 8 rotary EQ controls, whether preamp or integrated amp has analog domain circuitry. That’s C51, C52, and the current C55. The digital part is a slide in module, only a DAC, and has no EQ function.

edit:  these are EQ controls, not filters. The uppermost frequency is 10kHz, +/-12 dB.
