The filters sound great
I recently purchased some convolution filters for the Sennheiser HD800 that I really enjoy. To my ears it seems smoother than Oratory's Equalizer APO 10-band EQ.

The problem
However, I have run into a snag. The FIR filters work great in Jriver WDM driver for stereo music however Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone-X are not passed through Jriver. So my enjoyment for games and movies is limited.

Convolver solution?
Is there a convolver that will pass 5.1+ audio and still allow Dolby Atmos and DTS Headphone-X for headphones? It will also need to have a similar functionality as the WDM Jriver driver. In other words it will need to work with Netflix, video games, and streaming services.

I think I found the solution to my own problem. I didn't know that Equalizer APO allows convolution filters. Equalizer APO works just fine with DTS and Dolby spatial sound for headphones.

Also, for some reason the lipsync delay is practically non-existent unlike Jriver at a higher khz sample rate. Perhaps Equalizer APO it can more effectively use the CPU?
