Hey guys,
I'm wondering if anyone of you can help me out. I'm thinkin of getting a newer, smaller 8gb mp3 player. my choices are the sansa e280, a second gen 8gb nano or the creative zen v plus. I currently have an iRiver H320, which i love very much, because the sound quality is awesome and the bass boost is very powerful and clear. One thing that I am worried about with these littler players is their sound quality, and also how good their bass boost/equaliser is.
I borrowed a friends first gen nano, and the sound quality was pathetic. When I put the 'Bass booster' EQ setting on, it was nowhere near as good as the H320's. it distorted too (even on a low volume!). So I'm wondering if anyone knows how the second gen nanos fair in this regard.
The sansa uses a portalplayer chip (i think) like the first gen nano, so is its sound quality the same as a first gen nano?
Also, if anyone has had both a H320 and one of the other players above, I'd be interested in your view on the sounds quality compared to a H320.
Its a shame iriver dont have a small 8gb mp3 player out.
Cheers very muchly,
Kebab
