Harsh Sounding High End Audio Playback
blgentry:
Check DSP Studio and make sure you are not using settings that you are unaware of: EQ, etc.
Otherwise, if this is some subtle playback quality, I wish you luck in identifying it.

Birchman:
As this is happening with both my Windows and Mac machines on different amps with different type connectors with the player set to default settings I suspect that Brian's comment about this is some being some subtle playback quality is probably correct. It might be something that only a few ears can hear and probably has not risen to a level of concern as as I might be the first person to actually try to discuss the problem. Unfortunately for myself I will probably not be able to continue to use this player as I have found other relatively similar players that do not have this playback problem. Thanks everyone for taking the time to offer suggestions.
JimH:
Did you turn off all DSP Studio settings?
Something isn't right and it's probably with your settings.
If you're using DLNA, the files may be being converted on the server. You can change that in Media Network options.
Birchman:
DSP is off. DLNA is off. High end/ upper mid range is still overly loud/shrill compared to other players. Thanks for your concerned response.
JimH:
I don't understand. You said this above:
--- Quote ---I did try turning the DLNA feature completely off and then back on with no change to what I am hearing.
--- End quote ---
I can assure you that, with default settings, JRiver isn't altering the sound from the file.
Did you test a different amp? It's possible that the amp is a factor.
Or try converting to WAV?
You're experiencing something uncommon. It often ends up in the "Weird Problems" thread:
