Hi, my problem is the amplifier is giving very metallic tinny kind of sound, equalizer adjustment don't help. I'm using Pioneer S-IS22 3-way 100W 6 ohm speakers which appear more than decent. My old system used to be a laptop with AC97 codec and Thomson Altima 380 stereo which looked like this.
.
So all I'm trying to do is find the same balance here, but nothing ever compares to that system. Now i'm feeding the sound from a regular PC with Ip45 chipset which has some kind of VIA codec. I wonder is the problem in the receiver, maybe the caps have dried up or something? I also noticed that listening to music from the receiver in the headphones provides much better richness , although still not perfect. And my headphones are nothing special, cheap Sennheizers HD180. Any advice?
