Also fixed - the extremely loud bass I complained about in another thread. The drivers on my sound card were sorely out of date. Not only fixed the bass, but it also fixed a lot of artifacts I was hearing on my highly-compressed death metal albums. I had just assumed it was a problem on the album end. I'm excited now that I know some of my favorite albums aren't unlistenable.
Funny thing: I can pop a CD into my bluray player, and then play the same song (lossless wma) from my computer. Both optical into the receiver. The computer sounds approximate 1E6 times better (like it has life). How to explain? both digital all the way into the receiver. I doubt it's the reader on the bluray - no problems with picture by any stretch. Maybe it's whatever device converts the bits into light for the optical?
