I think you missed my point which was that a DPM on the front panel of a power supply is no way to evaluate what is or isn't going on in a circuit. There are a large number of reasons why you may see the current display on the power supply change, and they don't necessarily imply audible artifacts. Do you have replaygain in the flac file? .wav doesn't have any tagging, so no replay gain. If there is a gain mismatch between the flac and wav playback one may sound "better" than the other. The effects you are hearing may be due to psychological factors. There are a couple ways to find out- look for visible artifacts on a scope trace (but then you have to decide if anything you see is audible) or conduct a blind (preferably double blind) test. You may be surprised to discover that the effects you heard so clearly are actually nonexistent.
