I cannot choose a right word for it, but it is like when you're enabling a huge boost (e.g. 5x) in your player settings/eq (as i understand, in such a case a high peaks will be cutted because they won't fit inside an allowed max.amplitude; sorry, i can't choose better words). Such "tinkling" or "wheeze" persists on almost every album i've tried to listen to (of course, i've tried lossless; more precisely, it was FLAC) and it seems that the issue doesn't depends of the volume - the distortion can be easily distinguished even on -50 volume, and makes some music (e.g. Death Magnetic by Metallica) totally unlistenable.
This is a refurbished 30GB (MA446LL) unit with Rockbox v3.2 installed; all settings are factory default (although maybe i've changed something unintentionally).
Is it the issue with my specific unit, or is it a common 5th.gen problem? Can i fix it someway (of course, without upgrading it to iMod)?
Thanks in advance, and, please, forgive me my bad english...
