if your operational system is either Vista or Windows 7 then your music will sound bright, that's why I don't use PC as the transport any more. Windows Xp has a much more neutral sound, you should try it if you haven't already.
Really? I don't recall noticing a difference in this regard when switching from XP to 7. Perhaps my system wasn't resolving enough at the time (and it was a long time ago!). As I understand it, if you use something like WASAPI with Foobar2000, you bypass any OS specific sound processing, so this may be something to try if the OS really has that much of a bearing on sound signature.
