I dont understand why the Lokius will not work in improving it ... For me then it is a problem about the speakers/room relation ...Of a bad synergy between a good dac and the rest of the gear interaction ...
I dont think that buying more costlier EQ will work better than this basic good one for sibilance...
In general looking for more resolution is not always the best way, sibilance may invite itself by exagerated high frequencies band coming from bad synergy or from a bad choice in some design ...I myself always asked for more musicality and more clear spatial localization acoustic qualities first, never for more resolving qualities first, because i hate fatiguing sounds ...My two systems dont lack details at all but they are never in my face ...They are there waiting for my attention ...
Borrow another dac...

A Schiit Lokius didn’t help but perhaps a unit with more bands????
