I haven't read any reviews though. Just a thought.
That's probably what I'll look into if I can't get the problem solved.

I've now tried the on board sound and it's not as great as my Auzentech Xplosion. I have now submitted a ticket to Auzentech support with the problem. I hope to get this resolved soon.

I can't tell a whole lot of difference with regular content. Of course HD is amazing as always. But of course I have a 720p TV.
