Windows 10 brings significant updates to the Audio stack but there are some builds of W10 that sound better than others. The best sounding W10 till date is the 18362.30 build. Yes, there's a lot of bloat in Windows 10 but all that can be stripped out later resulting in an even better sounding W10.
If I were you, and if this was a dedicated music player machine, I'd install a stripped down version of W10 on it. I found these stripped down builds to be perfect - https://www.sasnet.eu/2016/05/windows-lite-project.html?m=1. Create another partition on your machine, install this on that partition and take it for a spin. If you don't like it, delete the partition. You have nothing to lose!
