So, as with iOS4 Apple 'fixed' the EQ distortion problem....they haven't resolved this with a firmware update for the classic yet? Or have they? 

Hi quick question to anyone with a 7G iPod. With iOS4 and the iPhone/iPod Touch, Apple tweaked the eq settings so the long standing distortion issue was finally fixed. Has this been resolved with firmware for the iPod Classic as well?   Thanks!

I love you long time lurker here. My iRiver with the Rockbox have been around for years. The portable headphone progression has gone:   e2c - cable fault e5c - left channel fail se210 - lack of bass se102 - cable fault se535 - hope?   Have always loved the Shure sound signature...
