buffering, etc. Sounds like not an issue for you.  Regarding sounding
better, are you sure you're not comparing while using replaygain values
on your digital files (FLAC or WAV I assume). If replaygain values are
being used (check LMS > SETTINGS > Players > audio) this could account
for what you are hearing. With replaygain being used, most tracks will
have volume reduced (not increased).  And in blind studies, even an
almost imperceptible reduction in volume can lead listeners to prefer
the "louder" track.
