In the next couple months I'm going to take the plunge and replace my tired cd-player and get an MP3 player..
I'm thinking Shures or Ety's for the 'phones (anyone have an opinion on which is the better line?), with a portable amp (what do you call those DIY Altoid ones?)..
But as for the player, what would best meet this criteria?
80% of the time will be used at the gym..
Don't need an obsene amount of storage.. Enough for an hour, hour and a half's worth of MP3's, or WAVS, or whatever the best type of file is best for music fidelity and transfer quality..
Best build quality for the money!
Ease of use important!
Must be able to take tracks off the unit's HD, but transfering songs from the MP3 player back to other sources (PC HD's, etc) not neccessary..
$350 US, tops..
Thanks for your help!
