Thanks. I was using 4 but maybe I'll try Enhanced.

Thanks Blossom. Will have to give it a try for quality. I'm totally deaf in one ear so the stereo thingy wouldn't work for me.

Just got an email offer from Audible Use 4 Credits in 4 Days get $10

Bah! I just used that many credits in the last two days.

So not fair!

Thanks - added to OP

Do you have a link so I can add it? I don't get credits, so I never see these offers.

Enhanced - the audio quality is much better. The files are much larger, but it doesn't matter since I only keep a few audiobooks on my devices anyway. The one exception to that rule is my Sansa Clip Zip. Because it has a card slot, I carry extra cards loaded with audiobooks and music.

I think this will take you to it http://www.audible.com/int/exc/

I think I use 4. 1 and 2 are noticeably worse quality, but as long as it doesn't sound like a tin can, I don't much care.

I thought I had to use 4 because I manage my files in iTunes, but I don't like the way that it sounds. I'll have to check into using Enhanced. I'm so glad this question came up!

I have backups of all of my books (672) in enhanced format stored in iTunes. No problems that I've run across.

I switched to Enhanced version for Storm Front, after reading the posts last night, and it sounds a lot better to me! I was using the audio 4 setting and the sound was very quiet in my left earbud, I thought I was losing the sound in that earbud because of all the times the dogs had yanked it out of my ears

Now with Enhanced the sound is much more balanced.

I love the Whispersync for voice discounts, so glad they were pointed out on this thread. At first I thought they weren't available in Canada, but it just seems like the amazon.ca webpages aren't set up to display Whispersync information. I can look at the webpage on audible.com to find out if there is a whispersync option (it's a bit of a gamble if there's more than one Kindle version of the book) or I can log out of my Amazon account and visit the .com site.

Let me claim [again] (on Amazon), but did not let me redeem on Audible, guess I'll hook up a family member
