How do I use an equalizer with a Hegel H390 using Spotify wirelessly?

OK, I asked my sister when she got home to let me know what she thought.
Here is her response

This definitely sounds better, not so boxy if that makes sense.

I’m a firm believer that when a female can hear the difference there is a difference. 

Why won't the spotify EQ work? Are you sure you have it toggled on ? It works wirelessly for me via my phone for instance? 

If you have a bluesound set up you can use spotify via that device and bluesound has its own eq function too. 

*saugertiesbob The Spotify EQ does work it just doesn’t work with the wifi-ethernet-H390 setup and I don’t know why. It will work with usb out to my headphone amp.

Don’t get me wrong, I need very little adjustment to the Hegel, it’s nothing short of a phenominal piece of gear but I think everyone likes to hear more or less bass or trble in their music.

*jeffbij Yes, I use my laptop to stream Spotify to my modem device plugged into an outlet which has ethernet to the H390. It wakes the H390 up and begins playing the streaming Spotify. I assume the EQ only effects music using the USB output.

Thanks for the help guys, I’ll try Wiim Pro out or Pro Plus! (assuming they have an equalizer function)

The WiiM should work since:

1. The EQ is done internally on the WiiM hardware, and
2. it will be directly connected to the Hegel, either by USB or Coax (you can use the RCA analog output of the WiiM, but I think you will find the Hegel's DAC to be better.)

Thanks Jeff. How would I bypass the DAC in the Wiim to use only the H390 dac?
