Distortion

[Greg]

Hi,

I'm hoping someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm getting a little distortion on the left channel on particular tracks via Tidal. The volume level makes no difference as even at low volume it's evident.

Most music play absolutely fine with no issues, but every now and then I'll come across something that has the distortion.

I've changed cables, PC's and power points.

Any suggestions?

Thanks

Could it be the recording itself? There are numerous poor recordings out there, particularly with distortion in the upper register.
