Hi,
For about a year, I've lost most of the sound from this channel. It sounds very muted compared to the left. I have many native 5.1 FLAC, WAV and DSF\DSD files. I ignored it and I was satisfied with the 3.1. With the quarantine, I've been upgrading. I swapped out my soundcard, RCA cables, my amplifier, got a preamp, changed the speaker cables. Nothing changed the quality of the sound of that channel. I even swapped left and right signals. Still only the left played. Finally I tried Foobar2000 with the same files and equipment. Guess what, my long lost right side channel returned! What is going on? I have scraped the forums with a variety keywords and found nothing pertinent. Before I spend money on the upgrade, I'd like to get this fixed.
Current setup (but I had different sound cards and AV receivers in the recent past) Asus Strix ii, Emotiva XMC-1, dual Sunfire Cinema Grand amplifiers, Matched Paradigm Studio V2 5.1 with sub)
