I've tried model 6stack-digout and have no noticable improvment in sound. An ubuntu live cd yields the same result. The sound is good in Windows7. My friend says the audio sounds compressed. :(

I selected node 0x0c in hdaanalyzer and see audio mixer [OxOb] in the Connection list, but I cannot select the radio button.

no, the motherboard has 6 plugs, but no digital outputs on the back. Furthermore, I muted the CD channel, the line in was already muted, but I still have crap sound compared to my $20 mp3 player. Something else is wrong!
Take a look at the block diagram of alc880 datasheet
does it help when you use hda-analyzer to mute the amp-in value from node 0x0b in 0x0c ?
