Sibilance


Some recordings I hear it, sometimes I don’t. I just listened to "Time" from Pink Floyd’s Dark Side Of The Moon through BluOS and my Bluesound Node 2i, upgraded CJ PV-10AL, Emotiva XPA-2 Gen3, and Maggie 1.7is. It’s very noticeable to me on "S"s and high hat on that song. Thoughts?

There is none on the album.

Real sibilance is due to a lot of energy in the 3000 Hz region where our ears are most efficient. It is also a region where a lot of rooms cause trouble. Female voices and violins are frequent affected. If you have the capability putting a 2-3 db filter between 2500 and 4000 Hz will magically make sibilance disappear. 

The usual culprits are speakers, rooms and the interaction between the two.  You can see this on a frequency response curve which can be easily generated with a computer and measurement microphone. You can also see the results with added sound deadening. 

No sibilance on any of the old quad torrents, the gold MSFL or the surround SACD.
Too bad for you.
I'd look at cleaning up my AC power (AC conditioning) and some vibration free audio stands.
