So it appeared the issue was related to the hardware i.e. dac, which admittedly was a rather archaic mbox mini 2. When I selected the 3.5mm output on the pi, I was able to apply eq and maintain connection with spotify fairly reliably. I also tried a beringer uca202 card with success. The fun part was then generating impulse responses in rew and applying some convolution eq via camilla dsp. Worked great to smooth out the low end in my 2 channel system.
