Thank you kindly for this very thorough answer to my question. I have tried your suggestion in the Music App and found the quality was great when playing Music. My issue is with streaming recorded shows in Xfinity DVR. I changed the Music Equalizer and replayed the same DVR recording and the "tin can" sound was gone so I guess the Music Equalizer applies to Safari based streaming services too.
The current version of Ventura is 13.6. You should update.
Thank you!!!!
You're welcome.
Glad I could help! Have a great day!
