I'd say you have something else going on other than problems with the new
software.  I've been punching buttons on 2.059 for two days now with nary a
"blue screen of death".

2.  The only "fuzzy" audio I've encountered is on the internal speaker, and
only on my v2 Orion.  On an external speaker there is no fuzz.  I have no
clue whether I have something mechanical with the internal speaker at issue,
or if there's some electrical difference in the internal/external speaker
connections.

As to "raspy and scratchy", I haven't observed that at all.

Both versions have been working quite well.  I like the way they play.
