Which one would be better?
RME ADI-2 DAC or the combination of a digital EQ such as Behringer DEQ2496 and an ordinary 'pure' stereo hi-fi DAC?
The person who asked me this does not want to use parametric EQ software on computer, because it would be inconvenient to turn on the computer every time someone in the family watches TV. A small computer(an about 10 - 11 inch LG tablet/laptop - I guess that model is not in production now. -) via USB cable and a TV via optical cable are the PCM audio sound source. He does not have, and does not plan to buy DSD files. His current DAC is an Arcam which is a 'pure' stereo hi-fi DAC (no parametric EQ).
