Hey guys, I'm looking into picking up a Zune 80, now that they're a little lower in price. I have a Zen Vision M that has been good to me, but I'm ready for a change and just looking for something a bit more sleek, with a bigger screen.
Anyway, the problem is, my collection is ripped mostly as 128 kbps mp3's, as I did most all of it before I knew any better. Now, I hear the Zune sounds great even without an EQ, but I'm assuming this is primarily with better quality files (192+)?
With my ZV:M, I've always used the EQ to "unflatten" things, and I've been pleased with how it sounds. And though I want to move on to the Zune, I'm not going to go back and re-rip my entire collection. Will my music sound worse on the Zune than what I'm used to?
I'm no audiophile, but if I turn the EQ on the ZVM off, to me, things sound kind of dull and lifeless. Is the EQ off setting on the ZVM an indication of what the Zune will sound like?
