Not surprised that you do not like it. Why? Highly compressed source signal. Entry level DAC and amplification. Lamp cord wires. Plus, you likely have a good deal of RF problems. Do you have all your wires neatly bundled (i.e., a bad thing)?
Finally, you put a dipole speaker into a box.
The Cinema is extremely revealing of low quality components upstream.
If you are on a limited budget, I would return the Cinema and upgrade the front-end first.
