Audio file preview icon has changed. How to change back?

Hi, for some reason all of my audio file (wav, aiff and mp3) icons in the Finder window have changed from the black square with two tied quavers (8th notes) to the quicktime logo. They have been set to open with quicktime for a while, but the logo has always stayed the same. I can't figure out why this has changed or how to change it back to the previous black square icon which I prefer!


Hope that makes sense!


Cheers

Hi, thank you for your reply.

I have all my audio files set to quicktime as default, which is why on the 'get info' window contains the quicktime icon.

My finder window icons above have all changed to the quicktime icon as shown. This has happened within the past few days. Previously, the icons above would have been the black square with the two grey musical notes.


Thanks for your help
