Hi all, i use my avr combined with nvidia shield tv to stream netflix, youtube, hulu, etc thru my tv and speakers (rf7ii mains). I noticed after about an hour of watching at avg levels my ears hurt. Oddly, theres a gas fireplace to my right and its about 4ft away from me. with the fireplace on it seems to create enough white noise to counteract some frequency or resonance coming from the rf7s, as my ears dont seem to hurt when its on. The speakers are approx 11ft away, i have carpeting, 2 couches, heavy drapes, and the treble is set to flat. Granted if the source is netflix (dd+), then i run the "straight" setting and im unaware where the treble is due to it being locked out in this setting. What can i do? Do i go into the negatives for treble and risk losing detail? Can i line the horns with something to dampen them for resonating issues? Center is an rc64ii if that matters. Everything is brand new and un modified so far.... by brand new, i guess 60 days old. I notice my rears have a rubber horn body with just the throat being plastic (RP160). Was this done to help with any harshness? Avr is an onkyo rz800 if that matters (doubtful since im not even pushing anything hard when this ear pain happens). I can watch tv in our bedroom (tv speakers) for hours with zero issue, but in my living room my ears just friggin hurt!
