Equalizer for music playback needed!

Exactly, the WDLive handles what it’s given and the output is flat and should be.  It’s up to you to tweak the EQ on your receiver.

I have had zero issues with sound coming out of the box.   You might notice this problem if you output multichannel audio on a 2 speaker setup as the WDLive does not have advanced audio functions.  Try using the optical output (digital) and you’ll see !

This box is meant to deliver full potential when using both HDMI and Optical audio out, you will truely appreciate the results !
