As I answered in the other thread, this fuzz problem could be the result of several things, so what you need to do is trace backwards through the steps you took until you find a step where the files sound ok. Then you'll know that the next step is probably the one causing the problem and some of us will be able to help you. For example, do the six individual wave files sound ok? If so, then it's something in your encoding procedure. Initially I thought it might happen if you're using hacked software, which of course can be unreliable but if you're getting the problem no matter which encoding you do, then it's probably before the encoding stage. Does the fuzz only happen after you've written the DVD and tried to play it? If so, there might be a problem with how you are authoring it. For example, audio for a DVD must be at a sampling rate of 48 or 96kHz. If your source was 44.1kHz audio from a CD or MP3s and you didn't convert it, everything will seem to be fine until you try to play the final DVD. Another possible problem that comes up a lot on here is that people try to make surround CDs and then play it back through an analog connection between the DVD player and receiver. AC3 and DTS data must go through a coaxial or optical digital audio connection between a DVD player and a receiver. It won't work otherwise unless the DVD player does the decoding, which many don't by default.

Anyway, these are some ideas off the top of my head. As I said, go back and find where the files last sounded good. Perhaps you could list your steps in detail here and then some of us will spot a possible source of the problem. Don't worry, we'll get this working for you! Lots of forum member here are doing this kind of thing successfully all the time.
