Sold off my ipod , looking for new mp3 player with sweet midrange.

Somehow i often felt that ipod's sound was kinda clincial when i was using them for almost a year. So i've just sold them off and now looking for another mp3 player. Any recommendation? I am using px200 II and sometimes my westones 2.  With the px200 II , the ipod volume seems limited, i often had  push the bar to 80% to get a decent volume. I am looking at either cowon iaudio 9 or Sony A series.

Ah, Zune HD has great sound

 

The volume might not be what your looking for, they do get quite low, yet to me it works great at 13-16, it goes up to 30

Well, I'm not an expert but I have a 4g Touch and just got a Cowon D2+.  In terms of quality sound, I find the Cowon much more pleasing.  I have D2+ loaded with Fac format jazz and it sounds wonderful.  Those that know more than I say the Cowon's claim  to fame is its equalization capability.  It really provide great flexibilty in adjusting the sound to suit your taste.

 

As an older model, I don't think the cost is too bad and it seems well built and solid.  I got the 16gb model and have added a 32gb SDHC card.

 

Good luck.

In the end i bought a new old model Sony A728. Sound pretty good but the ipod classic do sound cleaner and leaner.
