I don't have the same issue that you have identified; the spdif output being decent and there is no furring as shown in your picture. What I have found is that the output frequency deviation is a constant 100 kHz.
It is my prectice to relock spdif outputs or use a dac with v good clock cleaning and regeneration capabilities.
I agree that the 1.0.3.2 software is solid. However, the 1.0.5 drivers has been hacked such that the digital levels depend on the PC and instaed of 100, shows 78 or 156! To my ears the sound is more mellow and worse.
The 1.0.7 driver does not work on any of my PCs at all (firmware not recognised).
When using the 1.0.3.2 driver, the best sound is obtained by backing off digital levels to about 96.
