A lot of material is leaking out DolbyA encoded

I am sure that a lot of the pros out there realize that some of the older releases are leaking out DolbyA encoded. In fact, I have found numerous such releases (including two albums from HDtracks.) I have a site actually a couple of them with the HDtracks examples. I also have NUMEROUS other examples that aren't HDtracks that show before/after (and sometimes just after) DolbyA decoding.

New Computer?

I had a MacBook that was my trusty music maker for 4-5 years until it got a virus. So I got a new iMac from BestBuy but decided not to get 16 gigs of ram and to get an i5 instead of an i7 like my last MacBook.
I really can't tell but I think the quality of sound is diminished in my DAW. Is that likely?

Clipping with the Scarlett internal preamp

HI all, I have a Scarlett 18i8 that I bought so that I could mic my drums which it does fine but I noticed that when I went to mic my vocals I clip with the louder decibels. I haven't really experimented with compression and/or limiters) I ventured and bought a better mic to solve the problem. Not the best but a nice AKG C314 . But I'm still clipping when my vocals start to rise in volume.
