To operate EKIO on Windows 10 Pro 64bit PC, you need to also install;
ASIO4ALL
VB-AUDIO VIRTUAL AUDIO CABLE
VB-AUDIO VIRTUAL Hi-Fi CABLE / ASIO BRIDGE
Please refer to my previous posts for input routing from Roon, JRiver MC and browsers through VB AUDIO Hi-Fi VIRTUAL CABLE into EKIO using ASIO4ALL. EKIO also uses ASIO4ALL for output into any of the available USB DACs via ASIO4ALL.
If you would have difficulties in I/O routing, please let me know in this forum. In any way, once the I/O would be properly established, EKIO is very reliable and stable.
Please note that EKIO's processing is all in 24bit 192 kHz; you need to set, by up-sampling or down-sampling, all the output of your players and browsers in 24bit 192kHz. (This is one of the reasons for my preservation of single amp & LC network system for DSD native playback up to 4xDSD format, when needed).
Even the sampling rate is up to 24bit 192 kHz, I highly recommend you to try EKIO's wonderful crossover capabilities and very nice sound quality.
EKIO is rather light and stable software at least in my case, on my audio dedicated silent PC;
