Hi, Posting on behalf of a friend. He's bought one of these for Christmas and is very dissapointed. Apparently it sounds like the speakers are underwater! He's previously used just a jack to RCA to play his laptop through his HiFi. But he's now got one of these and said it sounds awful. I can't understand why it may be this bad. Anybody any ideas? I haven't seen the set-up myself so I'm kind of in the dark..
