I am also experiencing this issue. I can second that I believe it has to do with the transcoding of the audio on the server side. In my setup, I've got two players: a duet receiver and squeezeslave running on my media center pc that also runs SqueezeCenter.
Every AAC file I play on the duet receiver sounds fine (no transcoding on the server), but I hear a hiss when I play it via squeezeslave (which requires the server to transcode the AAC to MP3 before sending it to the player). I've tried upping the LAME quality setting, but it has no effect. Anyone have any ideas?
