Hey everyone, I've searched around, but can't really find what I'm looking for, so here goes.
I'm getting Ultimate Ear's super.fi 5's for christmas, and I'm wondering what settings to import my cd's with. Here's my scenario:
I have a 3rg gen 15 gig ipod, and for the time being, I'm trying to import using alac. However, that takes an awful lot of space, as you know. Eventually, I'd like to get a super-mini and a turbodock, but for the near future, it'll just be the ipod and headphones.
Will I notice a big difference in quality when moving from alac to aac? (keep in mind the headphones I'm using, etc.) I'm just trying to maximize space.
Also, is there any point in getting an amp? All my cd's will be imported using one of the above settings, but I also have a fair few albums downloaded, and they are usually at around 192 VBR... will an amp improve this? Do I even need to amp the super.fis?
Sorry about the abundance of questions, but I don't want to rush into anything without the proper knowledge.
Much thanks everyone.
