Okay....................I am PISSED OFF RIGHT NOW!!!!
I usually like to do some critical listening with my system after I return home from a GTG.
During John's GTG we really heard a difference from listening in Stereo Mode vs. Pure Audio Mode. So I figured that I would give it a test here.
Tonight as the wifey is doing dishes I decided to listen to some music on the SB.
Something just didn't sound right.
So I started to listen to No Doubt's; Don't Speak...........it sounded horrible and distorted.
Now that my CD collection is accessible, I decided to play the CD version. The CD version played through my 25 year old NAD CD Player sounded AWESOME. (some of you know that one of the reasons that I want a dedicated room is for music listening because when I listen to music it sound pretty shitty).
Maybe the reason is not really the room, however maybe I have a SB and/or a music ripping issue?
A year or so ago I posted a similar thread about a similar issue with the John Mayer Continuum CD. So I did the side by side test tonight and the SB version sounds like shit and the CD version sounds great............... The SB version almost sounds over-driven and distorted.
WHERE DO I GO FROM HERE!!!!!
I am looking for real troubleshooting advice here. This is a very serious issue for me my friends.
Advice welcomed.................................. Sarcasm..........................go F*CK YOURSELF!!!
