Never underestimate other peoples ears. This subtle differences are IE. 
often the thing that makes esses annoying or not and I have sometimes 
recived  negative feedback about it. Mixing is often to be near the 
borders and it's easy to do it wrong.

I'm not complaining about LAME here, I'm saying that I have to improve 
my mixes, that's my conclusion and I have no problem with that. Even 
when this problems are seldom, that doesn’t mean that I should not try 
to improve.
