Sansa Fuze. 8gb with microsd, okay bettery life (24hours), one of the best SQs out there. AND....extremely cheap. I bought my Fuze at Walmart in Canada for $100.

I would recommend the Sansa Fuze only if you like to use your mp3 for music. It's sound is great and in my opinion better than the D2 even though I LOVED the D2. The biggest difference to me from the Fuze is the soundstage, it's much bigger and I really like the cleaner sound it gives .

Alright. After thinking between the Sansa Fuze, Sony Walkman, or the Iaudio 7 I took the plung and got the Fuze and I have to say that it's great. Better sound quality then my old Cowon D2, very straightforward and nice build too. I needed something only for music with no bells and whistles and...

I don't which is the best sounding but the player I had before was the Cowon D2 and I now have the Sansa Fuze. Truly, I love both. Both have GREAT sound quality but because of the bass roll off of the D2 I didn't really feel the bass compared to the Fuze which isn't good, at least to me. The...

I have the JVC Marshmallows and well I made my own custom eartips but they've broken. The original tips were way too small :|. My canals are very big for some reason even though I don't have big ears :P. Anyways I'm looking for tips which will give me a good grip in my ears. Thank you .

Alright. I'm still searching for an mp3 purely for music and have a hard time deciding which mp3 to buy. I've recently bought the Samsung P2 and I'm returning it tomorrow. Nice screen, features but I'm not impressed with the sound quality. Nice bass, but many details are left off compared to the...

Alright. I've been researching for a new mp3 player with sound quality being the main objective. I had a Cowon D2 and liked it but I keep reading about bass rolloff and about better sounding mp3 players in the market and I want to get a different mp3 player. I don't want Sony for many reasons...

Well I'm going to be buying a Sansa Fuze soon and would like a portable amp to buy. It doesn't need to be cheap but small...small enough to fit around your pocket. I've read that the FiiO E3 is good...but the Xin Micro is better..but I'm wondering if there is any others? Thank you.

I love the D2 but I keep hearing about the bass rolloff. How can I stop that from happening? The D2 is one of the best in SQ and I love i but I'm thinking of buying a Sansa Fuze.
