   I tried Silpheed, but while there is definitely channel separation, the   
   music is not a good stereo example IMHO.   
   Instead, I suggest Bards Tale 1 title music.

   I need to setup a test rig that allows easy comparison of this.

   I will investigate this further. I think I hear a hiss. The output level is   
   too loud for my headset so I need some way of turning it down.

   Have you done any more testing? Steven mentioned there were jumpers that   
   could affect the output. Has he explained their use to you?
