Thats really the bottom line. How do YOU percive the sound?
It matters not whatht specs say. They are a guideline. The true and BEST most expert specification is what your brain percieves as "pleasant" .
Thats why I actually brought up buyingfeatures over "hair splitting" opinion. on sound quality. There is nothing wrong with buyng features when they are not at the expense of sound quality. I do not hear a major difference. Lucky me!
I once worked in a job I hated. We have all been there. But one of my coworkers LOVED doing the same job. He was content and happy, I was envious of him because he was exactly where he wanted to be, no matter how much I pointed out the lack of ambition he just smiled and went on....finally telling me I was a slave to ambition and would never have enough.... I see technology in this manner. Many have to achive (what they percive) as the bleeding edge specs. IT bever ends. The roses go unsmelled.
Thats why I am content with the Iriver/ETY 4p combo Its a "job" I am totallly content with after having both, Would I even care if the noise floor was -80db as compared to -120db . On paper it looks pretty bad. But in practice when listening to most music...it makes no difference except to the very few who will swear they can hear it!!
And all this listening to lossy music as well!
