Ok, here's an update then.

The reverb situation that I mentioned happens when I am in the line in window, 
and continues when I Command tab away from it. I use headphones all the time on 
this MBA, and need the volume up full. As I have said, the higher the volume, 
the greater the reverb. However, if I make a Skype call, once I get a 
connection, the reverb drops out and all is ok. Or ok enough, what happens is 
that when I speak, there is a slight delay before sound reaches my headphones. 

I don't like having my ears blocked by headphones without hearing myself back 
in them, this is a typical radio broadcast scenario that I have been use to in 
the past -
