Thanks!

I am sitting here listening to streaming radio (Swiss Classic, 
Berne) through my stereo. However, the sound is kind of muddy. If I 
listen to it with earbuds directly off the headphone jack in the 
R3240 it sounds great. But something must be off.

I plugged it into the Aux jack on the back of the stereo. On the 
front panel this can be selected with either the Video or TV/Sat 
buttons. Each button can be altered with three "sound fields" -- 
virtual dolby, cinema or music hall. Virtual dolby sounds slightly 
better than the other two, but it's still muddy. The rest of the 
settings are the same as when I listen to local stations through the 
tuner or CDs with the CD player -- that is, bass, treble, etc. are all 
set at the midpoint.

The volume is also pretty low, although I can bump up RealPlayer 
or the stereo. It sounds better if I bump up RealPlayer more than 
the stereo. 

I tried a few other stations and all are muddy. I suspect there is 
something that is not matching properly, but I don't know what it 
might be.

Are there any other alternatives? Maybe someone sells an in-
between device that would compensate for whatever is wrong?
