I have some experience with the SanDisk player. My boss bought a 1GB model for his wife for Christmas, and I helped him rip some discs. I only listened to one song, and used the included earphones. All I can say from such a limited experience is that it sounded "pretty good," and the...

I've been using Grado SR-80's for quite some time now, but I'm planning on buying some new 'phones soon and am seriously considering the HD 600's. Does anyone have any advice for me, since I can't listen to them beforehand? I should say that I enjoy the Grado's but am looking to expand my sonic...

I know for sure that the Nomad Jukebox 3 allows for replacement of the battery, and can even accept a second battery for longer life... it pays the price in size however, compared to the iPod and Zen.

Yeah, like uh... I use the custom eq, advanced eq, and boost everything a touch with another small boost to the highs and lows. Cheers.
