I don't know if was because of something (drivers or PC setup) I changed or just burn-in, but my card has definetely smoothed out compared to the way it was a couple of weeks ago. Still not super silky smooth, but the worst of the treble harshness has been tamed and it's much easier to listen to. Many people consider the V6 harsh (I don't) and the V6 pairs pretty well with this card.
BTW, there's a new driver posted on the Via web site -- 3.10d
