[SlimDevices: Audiophiles] Transporter Digital-In with DEQ2496 in loop

I am running Airplay using Airport Express into Transporter's digital-in. I wanted to do room correction on Airplay. Currently, room correction is applied using Inguz. I am thinking of buying DEQ2496 or something similar to insert it in the digital loop. Will this work?
