Voices sometimes have a "rattle" quality to them

208.166.196.102

The audio part of my home theater system is:

Pioneer Elite DV-37 Progressive Scan DVD player
Denon AVR-3802 A/V Digital Dolby receiver
Boston Acoustics MicroSystem 9500

Often when watching DVDs, especially older ones (but not necessarily older ones), the voices from my center channel speaker have a ringing, sort of rattle quality about them, especially for higher pitched voices. I rarely hear this when watching TV (RCA DS4220RE Digital Satellite Receiver), but I do hear it sometimes on CNN. I had noticed the same problem on my previous mid-fi set-up (Sony electronics, Polk Audio speakers). I have the Cinema EQ turned on in my receiver to reduce brightness in the sound, but I don't know what else to do. Is it a problem with my settings somewhere or are my speakers just poor quality? Any help is greatly appreciated.
