Title: Best MP3 player for sound quality?
Post by: BSD2000 on October 03, 2011, 04:34:58 PM
Recently, my Sony MP3 player got wet and the left channel stopped working. Between my Ipod Itouch and the Sony, the Sony had better sound quality. I'm looking to replace the Sony, and I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the Zune players, specifically, which one of the Zune models has the best sound quality - the hard drive based (30, 80, 120GB) or the flash based models (8/16/32GB).
I had a Sansa and Cowon in the past which were decent, but I hear the Zune's have great sound quality. Anyone have any experience with the Zune's?
Do you have any other suggestions for a MP3 player with good sound quality?

Has anyone heard the new HiFi Man portable audio players? They range from the HM-601 ($259) to the HM-801 ($790!). The headphone amp is supposed to be very good. I'm still looking for a new audio player and the HM-601 seems reasonable.
Anyone have any experience with HiFi Man products?
