Hi everyone,
in the last weeks I read quite a few times questions about a solution when using Equalizer APO and a DAC (mainly Topping and other brands, e.g. D10 or D30 Pro, Loxjie D30 and so on) and the correct indication on the display (automatic switches of the bitrate and kHz dependent on the music file).
Common practice is the installation of ASIO or WASAPI (push/event) and setting the right output, pretty easy and everyone is happy, works with no problems.
I can only speak for myself and have to say that I find it quite satisfying when the indication (display) switches automatically to the correct bitrate and kHz, although I know that I'll probably won't hear a difference.
BUT if you use equalizer settings with Equalizer APO all the effects won't work as soon as you use PUSH/EVENT or ASIO.
To my understanding there are a the following compromises, please correct me if I am wrong, I am far away from being an expert:
1. don't use PUSH/EVENT or ASIO (no satisfaction when looking at the display)
Use EqApo set gain at -4dB (check boxes on premix and post-mix in the configurator) = good sound

2. Install an additional component in foobar2000 and use the settings from EqAPO (I didn't understand the process) and you can use PUSH/EVENT or ASIO?!?! But I also read that it's not bit-perfect?
My question would be:
Is there any way to get an automatic change of bitrate and kHz (noticable on the display of the DAC) and still use EqApo?
I think this would be interesting to quite a lot users who are inexperienced in this kind of topic.
If yes, would somebody please be so kind and explain it?
Thank you very much!
