If the Classic's output stage more closely resembles the 1G Shuffle (Apple's best output stage so far) as Vinnie suggested then it
theoretically should sound better than the stock 5.5G. Hopefully someone with an un-modded 5.5G can compare to either verify or deny this.

We don't know anything about the DAC and probably never will as it's an Apple branded part. It may very well be the same DAC inside. It could be better, it could be worse.
