Alright, would appreciate some help with info on the Sansa Clip.

Alright so I should be getting one in the mail soon, V1 Im sure. Recertified from newegg. Anyway, should I upgrade to the latest firmware or use rockbox? Is RB even worth putting on the clip? Also, whats a surefire way to make sure it's V1? Also if there's anything else I should know you guys can post it.

Rockbox gives many things the original firmware doesn't my favorite being gapless playback. The only way to tell if a Clip is V1 is to look at the firmware.

So rockbox is stable and everything? Oh and I take it you can look at the firmware version in the settings somewhere? And if it's 1.Xwhatever it's V1 and 2.Xwhatever it's V2?

^^^^

Its pretty stable from what I've read. You are correct about determining the version.

Hmmm, reading around it seems rockbox on the clip is still buggy. I think I'll update to the latest Sandisk firmware and try that out for awhile. What's your opinion on the SQ of the clip? I know alot of people say it's really good, but one more opinion can't hurt.

I had a Fuze which sounds the same as the Clip. It sounds pretty good. It is best when you leave the EQ off.

Alright cool. Yea I don't really mess with the EQ, hell this crappy pearl I'm using I just leave it on flat because it just has presets. But this pearl was fine for awhile, but It's kind of horrible. Anyone who has used a 1st gen pearl knows what they're like heh.

You can also visually check the original clip's firmware. The V2 has the SANSA flower-like logo showing through the hole opening of the removable clip. The V1 instead shows you "SanDisk" and the flash drive size.

HTH
