Wed Feb 22, 2006 7:34 am Post subject: Distortions in left channel |
 
|
Recently, with new headphones I discovered distortions on the left channel throughout the entire day on every single track. I have verified my headphones working properly by listening to high bitrate recordings of the same soundtracks I have stored here locally and no such distortion can be heard. So its neither my soundcard or listening equipment.
I am listening to the MP3 Pro streams, no difference which one.
Anyone hearing similar? |

Have you tried any other mp3PRO stations? Also, you can try the Ogg streams to see if that clears it up.

Just wanted to give an update on this issue. It has not changed.
After reading this forum I came to understand it could have something to do with the applied normalization to the streams.
Well, I am not sure if I should subscribe to the VIP streams if those problems may persist in the higher quality streams.
I am actually surprised nobody else here is hearing those. I have tried other 64k streams from other stations without any problems. So I am pretty sure its SST related. |

Can you explain what these distortions sound like?

Best I can describe it they sound like hissing or when you fold this foil paper from candy. |

Even when listening with 3rd-generation Bose noise-reducing headphones, I don't hear any distortion in either channel.

I've never noticed any distortions in either of the streams ever (and just to nitpick a bit, we don't have any MP3Pro channels anymore. Only AAC+ or OGG  ), not even on my brand new, dark and very expensive headphones.

You guys, maybe its really my terrible notebook aux out. Unfortunately I cannot listen to the ogg streams, cause they do not work here overseas.
