I discovered that the sensivity knob on the speakers where set to max (-10), so I turn it to min (> +4dBu) and the high pitched sound almost disappeared, but the volume becomes quite low.
The 18i8 spec says max +16dBu.
It's only on the speakers, not in the records, so it's not that big issue.

The D5s as powered speakers don't care so long as they aren't being fed too hot from the sound card and even if that were the case, they shouldn't be making a high pitch sound assuming I understand the interpretation - It's just a bi-amp minus the need for a preamp with digital processing internally. My D5s are always full up, they have to be in order to proportionally match my other two sets of monitors (Adam/Mackie) to my satisfaction.
I'm more concerned about why they have the high pitch sound, mine don't do that. Any chance you can describe or demonstrate it?
Are you using balanced or unbalanced cabling?
