Hello Head-fi forum,
I am relatively new to the audiophile world and have some questions regarding an issue I've run into.
My current setup are the M1060s and Schiit Magni 3 amp/Modi Multibit 3 DAC fed by optic cable (S/PDIF). My Audio source is FLAC files and HQ spotify. I also have a FiiO Alpen portable DAC/AMP that i leave plugged in to a USB port as well. This creates 2 separate S/PDIF outputs under my sound settings.
Enough on the background, now to my question. I've heard that the M1060's respond well to some slight EQ work so, using PEACE, I had planned to EQ them to tame some areas and boost others. When plugged into my Alpen this works just fine and I am able to hear differences in EQ done through PEACE as well through the Alpen device itself (which allows you to increase bass/treble directly through its mini LCD interface), however when I use my schiit stack source the ability to EQ through windows (PEACE) is no longer possible.
Is there an explanation as to why I can't EQ via PEACE when using my Schiit stack and, more importantly, is there a fix that enables me to do so (or is my only option to get a Loki?).
Thanks for anyone in advance who takes the time to read this and answer!
