Berry,

Actually it is quite complicated to define what is wrong with the
"sound" of something...  What makes audio "fatiguing", exactly?  I
can't say, and no amount of listening to it, or playing with the EQ has
fixed it in my case...  

I used to work in a recording studio, as a mix engineer, (way back
when), and recently was in charge of the construction a Dolby
certified, (almost fully digital), mix down room for movie sound design
a few years ago...  This was one of those rooms within a room on rubber
bumpers sort of thing...  So I know a bit about audio.

Nor does using some non certified soundcard does not sound like the
path to pristine audio...
