Sound Quality Issues with DSD64 on some files only

Hello - I play DSD files form my local SSD drive win win10 NUC - into Chord Quest DAC.

Most of the songs (DSF files or ISO ) sounds good,

But on some songs - there are audible click’s or muffle weird sound ALONG the music.

When I check the same files with the same hardware - but switching from Audirvana to foobar2000 player - All Sound good.

Two “problematic” songs for you to test :


Here is my log file
