Could it be the AFX function is on?   This adds a bit of delay between L 
and R.     In using a pair of non-amplified external speakers connected 
to the rear SPKRS jack, I don't notice any objectionable echo when NR is 
engaged.   The setting which I use for SSB  is NRmF5--1.   This is mixed 
audio being part original audio and part being DSP audio.
