Improve Linux audio playback quality?

Based on the way he worded his post it does apply; even if he were comparing HW eq to SW eq it would still apply, but this really doesn't concern you.

If I thought this were a more egregious offense the post would have been binned. Instead I took it as an opportunity to state that this forum expects more in the way of the presentation of preferences as they relate to sound quality, in the event that AHD did not read TOS8. While it is wholly possible that this is an exception, most noobs don't bother reading the TOS and then act surprised when we actually enforce them.
