Mac Core Audio has a clear advantage over native Windows audio driver. Hence, there are add-ons like Fidelizer, JPlay and Audio Optimizer to enhance Windows audio to match, if not exceed, Mac's Core Audio. When listening to AIR3.0 using an old Mac Mini (A1283, 2.53GHz Duo Core, 4GB RAM and 320GB SATA), I felt very heavy headed. After switching back to Win/AIR2.1.3/Fidelizer/JPlay, the heaviness was removed and I feel more relaxed with the music.
