A Harman EQ'd K 702 shuould sound pretty smooth in the treble so I'd try to use an Apple dongle as the DAC to see if your PC is the issue. That's my guess. The amp would have to be faulty to be the cause. Could Harman just be too bright for your preference?

The PC I don't think (please, correct me if I'm wrong) has any influence in sound after I connect a USB DAC to it, isn't that how it works? I mean, it is worth trying. The problem with playing from the phone is the lack of PEACE (I don't have anything equivalent actually, I don't use my phone to listen to music that much) so I'd have to compare them without EQ.

Exactly (unless the DAC is poorly designed and allows noise through). On the phone you can use Wavelet to get the same parametric EQ function. Also does the volume change when you turn Peace on and off since with Windows updates it can stop working?

Yes. PEACE is working normally. It's installed on all devices and every change makes an audible difference.
