Hi,
 
Today I am using a ASUS N552VX laptop with Bose Soundlink Wireless Headphones II and Bose Soundlink Wireless Speaker II.
 
I got my music in mp3 files 320kbps and around the 20kHz frequency range.
 
I am mostly using foobar2000 for my music and I am only getting clear sound at -14dB in foobar2000 or 20/100 in windows volume control or even lower on half of the tracks, but going above this makes the music "flat".
 
I have looked at Asus Xonar U7 and Creative Sound Blasster E5 of which i liked the E5. A feature appreciated would be a software that can change EQ and change settings of the sound.
 
I also have a Samsung Galaxy S6 which I will swap for a iPhone 7 when it releases which I would like to use this device for as well as for the laptop.
 
Do these dacs/amps improve the sound quality of bluetooth devices?
Which one would you recommend from own experience/knowledge?
Do you know if it is possible to heal this sore sound?
 
Cheers,
 
Henrik
