Here is my 20GB Zen Touch + Sony MDR-EX51LP (I use the small earbuds now, I lost the middle sized ones)

Okay...I need help with EQ. I set it up to: 100Hz: 4dB 800Hz: 4dB 3k: -2dB 12k: 0db (they go from +12dB to -12dB) I have no idea what all those things mean, this sounded pretty good, but PLEASE tell me what is the good combination for my earphones: 1000Hz: ??? 800Hz: ??? 3k: ??? 12k...

I got them today. Love them, great sound. I'm using the middle sized earbuds, because I hear basslines much better then. They fit in my ear and isolate the most of the sound around. Is that okay? Should I use the little earbud caps? Thanx guys for your help!

Okay, I love my Zen Touch but I hated the earphones I got with it from the start. So I've been using some Sony earphones I got with my discman, and they sounded a lot better. I've always looked at the MDR-EX51's and they looked cool. So now I decided I would go out and buy them tommorow. I AM...

I have it and I love it. It's small, cute, it has great sound quality, battery life is awesome, easy to use, screen is big and sharp, I love the material it's made off - so cooling. I'm glad I bought it. You should definately go for it.

Zen Touch 40GB - I have a 20GB version and I love it. Sound quality is great. Supports MP3, WMA and DDR WMA.

Yeah, I agree. But, Creative has been getting a lot of publicity and adverts lately and I think people are starting to finally hear about the alternatives to iPod. In a year or two the situation could change.

I had a 128MB Maxfield flash player, I had it for a year, and a month ago I got a Zen Touch and I'm loving it.

Does Apple pay you to post this? 5 exchanges? LMAO! Anyways, why don't you just go for a Zen Touch? It's not that much bigger and it has additional 15GB and it's really rare to see people exchanging them.
