Run a music server I hate, but with eq built inĭelete the driver limiting the functionality of the DACĮxternal analog EQ. It makes it way to bright and brash for my room. But, when I installed the driver, it seems to bypass the all of Windows including the EQ. I was looking at some streaming for HD files and I had hoped a cleaner and more stable path. I had EQ APO/Peace running as I need something close to the Walker curve with a little correction lower. Currentlly, my library is local FLAC copies of all my CDs. I am using Windows Media Player as it is the ONLY player whose UI is intuitive and easy. I was running a Schiit Asgard DAC with a Windows 10 system music server. Hardware solutions tend to be more stable. and when the overall platform has issues, it can impact the sound. you have to make sure your CPU is fast enough, you have enough RAM, etc.

Software will be prone also to limitations imposed by the computer it is being run on. Levels of flexibility and ease of deploying upgrades goes from Software (easy) to Hardware (slightly harder) to Analogue (you have to replace the whole unit). Older style analogue EQ is based on circuits, and typically only have a single type of "filter" - this can be accurately reproduced mathematically by hardware or software EQ.Ī "Good" implementation across all 3 - using the same filtering methods, will sound identical ( to the same degree that 2 differing DAC's sound identical. so you are effectively asking " which cuisine tastes better, the one cooked on gas or the one cooked on electric".

Hardware and Software are identical - they apply filters via mathematics which is the same in both - however, there is a wide range of different filters that can be applied, with no two sounding quite the same.
