Well, the skips have gone away, don't know why.
Now it seems as if there's a difference between playback from the card and the internal memory. FLAC files play back from the external card but are filled with pops and ticks when played back from the internal memory. This proved true for different types of music, but was especially noticeable with solo classical music, such as violin and piano sonatas.
Above I thought that classical music playback was disappointing but listening after burn in and through full size headphones makes a big difference. I was getting generally disappointed with playback of all types of music with the Ety4s and the Studio. A few days ago I went back to my Grado 225's and AKG 702 and found the sound of classical music to be superior. Not just for classical but for all types of music. Seems as if this player may be best for full size headphone playback.
