[QUOTE="rsbrux, post: 1175322, member: 49539"] Thanks for your suggestions. I have tried them all, but to no avail. The symptoms remain unchanged. All of the selections were intentional, but I confess to not understanding the wealth of options in LAV filters very well so I might have screwed up ;-} [LIST] [*]I selected DD and DTS bit-streaming because my AVR understands these formats, and can presumably do a better A/D conversion than the PC (or at least with a better S/N ratio). [*]I have no idea whether or not any of my sources are 7.1, nor do I know how to find out. [*]I previously had "legacy 5.1 channel" unselected, with the same results concerning background vs. foreground sound. I selected it recently, because my back speakers are really in back, not on the sides. [*]I chose the DPL matrix encoding setting in the expectation that it would give me better results with the headphones (Sennheiser RS-170), which are surround-capable, but have only a stereo input. In fact, I do get very convincing surround effects with the headphones on some programs, but I can't be sure that I have this setting to thank for that. [/LIST] Thanks again for your help! [/QUOTE]
