Is it possible for an Audigy 2 ZS to somehow take advantage of a 10 ba

Is it possible for an Audigy 2 ZS to somehow take advantage of a 10 band equalizer?  As you know, the stock creative graphic equalizer that ships with the Audigy 2 ZS is only 7 bands. 

I have the left and right RCA audio cables from my xbox going into an adapter that converts into a single 1/8" male analog adapter that goes to the line-in of my audigy 2 zs, which I have set to use the 7 band equalizer.

I have a Turtle Beach Montego DDL soundcard which has a 10 band equalizer and sounds better than the Audigy 2 zs, but it does NOT affect the audio from the line-in source as the audigy 2 zs DOES.  I can work around this by using a input plugin for Winamp called LineIn plugin v1.80 by Jasper Von De Gronde and also his output plugin called Low-Latency waveOut plugin v1.11.  This allows winamp to take the audio from the line-in and then pass it through to the equalizer of the Turtle Beach Montego DDL control panel and also Winamp's own equalizer.  It sounds great, but there is a small ~50ms delay which can become annoying.  The audigy 2 zs can use its own equalizer but has NO delay and has no need for winamp.

I am new to all of these driver modifications for the audigy 2 zs, so the biggest concern for me: is it possible for an Audigy 2 ZS to somehow take advantage of a 10 band equalizer?

Thank you for your time and I appreciate your help.

Wasn't there some software for to send the Audigy output to another card ... could this be usable for you (I have never tried how it works). - http://www.driverheaven.net/audio-general-...-soundcard.html

Another method:

Just get some ASIO capable VSTHosting software to input the signal, add some EQ plug-in (there are plenty of listed @ KVR) and enjoy.

Couple example configurations:

1.
Hermann Seib's VSTHost - http://www.hermannseib.com/english/vsthost.htm
KarmaFX EQ (18 band EQ) - http://karmafx.net/

2.
energyXT standalone - http://www.xt-hq.com/download/
KarmaFX EQ
