[QUOTE="Lentaigne, post: 1355405, member: 233224"] [b]Poor Sound Quality Imac I3[/b] I've got this exact problem. Sound is just rubbish. There's no clarity, it just sounds [I]nasty.[/I] if your problem is the same as mine it will have been caused by some error in your computer's antialiasing and / or audio filtering. Go to this website ([url=http://www.audiocheck.net/audiotests_aliasing.php]Digital Aliasing Test[/url]) and play the audiofile. If the sound 'swoops' - goes from low to high - there's a problem with antialiasing. Basically, your Mac - like mine - just ain't bothering. The sound should just go straight and direct from high to low. I have no idea what to do about this, but I've trawled through rubbish posts for ages trying to find the genuine problem with my Mac. Now I have. Someone ... a solution? [/QUOTE]
