This may not exactly be the best place to post this ever, since Audible files are far from hifi, but ...

I just tried using Audible for the first time. When I play the files on my Sansa C150 I occaisionally get a pop. It happens ever few minutes, sometimes, but sometimes a long time passes without a pop. The pop doesn't seem to exist in the file -- I can go back and listen to the same phrase and not hear the pop the second time. And this doesn't happen with mp3 files.

Any ideas? Is this a "feature" of Audible files (I've never used the service before) or is it a problem with how my player is handling them? I've been having conversations with Sandisk about it, but it doesn't seem like they've heard of this problem before.

I use various players for my Audible.com audiobooks: a Sansa E130, a Rio Carbon, and an Ipod Nano. I do not hear any significant pops during play.

I assume that you are using the latest firmware. Try reformatting the player and reloading all of the books.

I have done both of those things. There's no new firmware, but late yesterday I got a reply from Sandisk that, while not exactly acknowledging that it could be a problem, did suggest that it might be fixed in the next firmware drop.
