SoundMAGIC PL30 Adjustable Bass Earphones
I let them burn in for a good 8 hours or so. I have to agree with alot of what Jant has said. These are excellent phones for the money. Very fun sound signature. With the se420's i would have to eq a lil more bass and treble. The pl30's i use no eq, they don't need any. Wish i would of found...- plywood99

Why no love for Sansa View...
Yeah the interface is kind of basic, but that is not a problem for me. I was interested only in its ability to play music well, and it does that in spades. The bonus of expandable memory is nice and the unit has a good adjustable eq. For some reason they did not label what frequencies the eq...- plywood99
