Not certain if I've tried listening to other uncompressed soundtracks using my PS3 since removing my switcher, and never had a problem with uncompressed sound before, but watching Ratatouille it seemed to be messing up the mix dramatically horribly, as non centered voices and effects were ridiculously muffled and sounded like they were under a blanket. Switching over to the DD soundtrack it sounded amazing, one of the best mixes I've heard from Pixar. I checked my PS3, I currently have all of the 5.1 options checked off up to 192Khz, I assume that using my PS3 via HDMI to my Denon 3806 this is all supported, and since I do not have a 7.1 setup all of those options are unchecked.

Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? Will have to put another uncompressed disk in and see if that has similar issues tonight.
