Or is it bit-matched? Sound cards have an option to do bit-matched playback, and im guessing wasapi or asio have to be utilized by the media player in order for that to work. Is it worth it over the normal mode with sound resampled, remixed or whatever happens. I figured out how to get wasapi in media player, which i think pybasses windows mixes, dont know if its any better. Anyway, lets say i dont enable bit-match and use the soundcard's EQ, wont the sound still "enter" the card cleaner with wasapi and thus better even when the card itself doesnt output it bit-perfect? Also I read in the thread below that all volumes like the sound card's and software must be max for bit-perfect to work, is that true? I use x-fi, and im a fan of crystilizer, so im wondering if bit-matched is a better alternative especially for DVDs and FLAC.
