Hello. I have a question. I bought a DAC Hidizs S9 Pro. I have Windows 11. I know that on this OS, the driver can not be installed, but for the sake of experiment, I still downloaded (
link) it from the official Hidizs website and installed it. After listening to the dac with and without a driver for some time, I heard a big difference in sound and would like to understand what this difference is due to. This difference is audible even if you watch videos on YouTube. It seems that when the driver is installed, the bass becomes punchier and more detailed, and when not installed, the bass is a little blurred. It also seems that everything sounds clearer and more transparent when the driver is installed. I asked this question directly to Hidizs, but they could not answer me anything intelligible. Maybe you can explain to me why installing the driver on Windows 11 changes the sound of the dac so much. Thank you in advance.
