Hey guys,
So I just replaced my 2009 iPod Classic with another 2010 iPod Classic. The last one got some cider on it, and the click wheel wasn't working right, so I had a friend at the Apple stores switch it out for me.
Now this is probably my imagination but it feels like the 2010 iPod is tinnier, a little thinner, and doesn't sound quite as good as my 2009 iPod. They're both the Classic, and I don't think there's been any kind of generational change. I just got this thing yesterday so maybe it needs to warm up (or maybe I need to warm up to it) but it sounds DIFFERENT.
I may be going crazy, I don't know. I bought the 2009 iPod Classic because I heard that the sound quality really improved due to new Cirrus DAC chips. I'd be really sad if I swapped out my slightly malfunctioning iPod for a worse-sounding one.
Does anyone know anything definitive on this? Or am I just nuts?
