Hi, I own a Zen Mini MK3 SSD now for about 9 month and beside some minor software issues that are solved now I am very satisfied with it. I noticed however that cd's ripped by the Zen Mini directly (FLAC) sound a little less sparkling / bright / open, compared to the same cd's riped by my Macbook (AIFF) and then imported to the Zen Mini. It is as if there is a slight shadow over the sound, or a thin curtain. Does anyone recognize this or is it jst my imagination? Thanks for reacting.
