Zune thread. All other Zune threads merged here.

Being that I work at GameStop, I was excited to hear that we were carrying a portable dap, and even more excited to hear that they weren't damn iPoos. So, on their launch day, I picked up a Black Zune. I got it home, tried it out, liked it, loaded all my music, and then listened to it!!!.... and found that it's not that astounding. I figured that, perhaps, the stock headphones weren't that great, but having my Shure E2c's connected to them doesn't help much, and even having the stock headphones hooked up to my H320 produces a noticabley better sound than my Zune.

I'm torn. I love the UI and design of the Zune, but my old friend, my H320 just destroys the Zune in the sound quality aspect. I guess I'm just going to wait and see if Microsoft releases a firmware update that addresses these issues. To me, everything about the Zune is perfect, other than it's sound quality.

Anyone else share the same thoughts?
