Hi, this is my first post and I would like to ask about the difference in sound quality between the to players I stated in the thread name. I currently own a iPod touch 2nd gen 16gb. However, I am rather Displeased with the sound quality. I m also a metal fan. My fav song is waking the demon by bullet for my valentines. I used to own a samsung yh-820 a rather old model... And on the samsung mp3 player I can get the feel of being in the performance, but on the iPod touch it juz seem flat, using the equaliser makes it worse. After researching the net for few days, I am quite interested with this two players, the cowon s9 and the creative x-fi2. As I am in Singapore I am able to buy the 64gb version of of it but I really want to know which is the best. Of course sound quality is the top piority... I have a tight budget though around 350 usd is what I can really afford... The x-fi2 would cost 230 usd which is within my range. But for the cowon s9, I am not too sure of the price in local stores as some forums stated that it was overpriced. So does the sound quality between the 2 players has much difference? I am willing to spend 3 hrs at the audio store to listen for the difference, but I want to know more about the sound difference before testing it. I am using a denon c252 headphone, quite a decent one.. I know the x-fi2 has a poorer touch screen
