Have you listened to any other iRiver players? If so, can you compare them?
Thanks in advance.
Did you have time to make up any opinion on the sound on your demo?
The E10 isn't released in the USA yet, right? That's a shame, I wish it would be released all over the place so that they can rockbox it
Regarding other iRivers, I've only tried the T20 in comparison. My short experience was that E10 goes deeper/lower on the bass, something I like. It gives the music a great ground to stand on, at the same time it contains lots of detail. According to iRiver themselves, they concentrated the most on the sound when making E10 so it should sound a little better than their flashplayers.
Also, you have a couple of EQ's to choose from, and also a 5-band EQ on your own to play with. Together with my Sennheiser CX300 and just a little fiddling with the EQ, I've aquired a sound I find fantastic for a DAP
Hope it will be released in America soon!
