Homosapien--one thing you might want to try is repositioning your speakers, if only just a little. I wound up doing so when I first put in the Ultimate Outlet, as I had thought that while the outlet made some improvements, there were some unusual side effects involving the soundstaging. Moving the speakers just a little snapped things back into focus. Maybe the extra detail or lower noise floor, whatever it is, brings out additional aural cues which upset the balance you had before. Worth a try, anyway. Good luck.
