Equalizer


Hi All,
So my Bryson Pi came in and I’ve played it now for a couple of days. I must say that in many ways, I find it to be better than I expected. The bass may be a little light for my taste and I was wondering if anyone might know of a way to boost the lower frequencies. The obvious choice, I’m guessing, would be an equalizer but that would mean some sort of eq software application and I don’t know if that would be compatible. My stereo is; the Pi running via Wireworld Platinum Starlight USB to an ISO Regen with LPS 1 linear power supply to an Ayer QB 9 Twenty DAC. I’m using Hi Diamond Interconnects to an ASR Emitter II Exclusive amplifier and Hi Diamond speaker cables to Quad 2905 ESL’s. I have a passive PS Audio line conditioner and various Akiko Audio Tuning sticks throughout. I will be adding my TeraDak linear power supply to the Pi soon. I still need to listen to my classical collection to interpret the cellos and double basses in order to get a clearer picture overall but with popular music, if I could get the slightest bit more low end, I’d be even happier! Any suggestions?Thanks!

...  aside from hearing data transfer noise and a slightly unsteady stream ...
What is "data transfer noise?"
What do you mean by "unsteady stream?" If you have dropouts, that's not likely to be caused by the streamer, but rather the quality of your Internet service itself.
cleeds, don't take me too literally, I don't know the exact cause or the terminology for what I'm hearing if it's not musically related.
Just bought a Rolls Bellari EQ570 Audio Equalizer to take the edge off of poor recordings. Has four frequency adjustable knobs and a bypass switch. Very solid build, knobs are  smooth and snug to adjust. Very quiet does not make any unusual noise or popping  when using the bypass switch. This will also boost frequencies if needed. I never use it to boost, only to cut back. I have it connected  to the "Tape In" and Tape Out" connections of my preamp.   I can totally bypass it with preamp selector switches. It is just enough to tone down some of the harshness from poor recordings. I'm very happy with it.
