just got an ipod classic, and all i can say is... its surprisingly good,
at 1st it sounded absolutely horrible and tiny, left it connected to power and running for 2 days, and well... it's really opened up quite a bit. its got more clarity then the previous generation, maybe a narrower soundstage, basing this on memory as my 5.5g video died a little while back.
Finding i'm liking the bassier phones a bit more as the classic is fairly lean but sharp sounding?? dont know what to call it. but its really not all that bad. Ksc75's sound alot nicer than i remember them sounding on my last ipod (unamped)
amp'ed not sure which i prefer, as the last generation seemed a fair bit warmer, paired with some warm phones it sounds rather nice.
For the UI and storage space i guess theres not too much to complain about, just cant help but think maybe i'm missing out something compared to a D2 maybe? which has been described as a detailed and slightly cold, which is what i feel the classic sounds like atm.
any comments?
