I currently have a 16gb Ipod touch which is full. All the music is ripped at 128k AAC. This is only about 90% of my CD collection and I would like to increase the sound quality. I am unsure what to do next.
I am considering:-
A. Getting an Ipod classic 160gb and re-ripping everything at 320kb AAC leaving me loads of space to grow.
or
B. getting a Sony or Cowon 32gb mp3 player and ripping at about 192kb AAC thus leaving me a bit more space than I have now.
Which will sound better? I am aware the Ipod is not the best sounding player on the market but will the higher bitrate make up for it? I dont use apps,wi-fi or play videos so that is not a consideration. I also have no axe to grind using Itunes either.
Headphones are Quite comfort 3's or px100's (looking at SR80i's).
