Behringer DEQ2496 as EQ Only?


Could anyone please offer expert advice on how it might be possible to configure or daisy chain a Behringer DEQ246 with an Antelope Zodiac + DAC?

For years, I have used the Behringer on my desktops, for television, computers and background music. The DAC is OK but EQ is useful.

Now, I have switched / upgraded to the Zodiac + DAC which is a better DAC and is more useful device for switching sources and adjusting the volume.

So the question is whether I can somehow get the Behringer into the signal chain, but for the EQ only?

There was something I found on the web or youtube that suggested making special cables, but this made no sense to me or to the company I sometimes use for cables....

Thanks for any ideas.

Cwlondon, what is your experience around the overall resolution with and without the DEQX ?

sorry I meant the DEQ2496.I did use it as an EQ only but had to use Optical cables into and out to connect my transport to the DAC. to me the resolution really dropped and preferred direct in without EQ .

But then getting the EQ right on a 2496 is not very user friendly so maybe did it wrong !
