I want to buy a mp3 player and considering my limited budget these models seem like a good option. Is there any difference between them in terms of sound quality? Everything else in their specifications is pretty much the same I think, so I'll just pick randomly one of them if the sq is the same.

I had the Muvo Slim and the Muvo TX FM and they sound the same. So, I wouldn't be suprised if those two players are identicle also.

Greetings to Bulgaria. It seems that apnk and I have both had good experiences with the Creative flash players.

I'm in the U.S., and the V200 is not as common here as the other Creatives ... but if I remember correctly, it's the one with the built-in USB plug (sort of the Zen Nano-style "bodywork" with the Muvo-style plug built in). The Zen Nano / Zen Nano Plus is as a result even smaller (no built-in plug -- uses a USB cable to transfer songs).

I'm confident the sound quality will be the same in the two models. If the price is the same, and you need to choose one, I'd go for the Zen Nano / Zen Nano Plus (I have that one, and the smaller size is nice -- using the USB cable is not a problem for me ... if using the cable might be a problem for you, pick the other one). Also, it's possible that there are fewer firmware issues with the Zen Nano / Zen Nano Plus.

I think you will be happy with your player. Consider getting a warranty or replacement plan, though, if available to you, in addition to what Creative offers, just to protect your investment.

To clarify, I don't listen to the radio much, so I have the Zen Nano. It cost a little less money than the Zen Nano Plus, which has an FM radio receiver.

apnk, LaBreaHead, thanks for the answers, I think I'll take the Nano.

I'm baffled over the fact that someone would actually chose the model that requires a usb-cable over the one that doesn't

To tell you the truth I don't care very much if the model is with or without usb cable, a little smaller or a little bigger

To me these are very subtle differences, sq is my only criteria. And sadly, price

I just found that there is IRiver player available in a local store for roughly the same price, the models are T10, T20 and T30, whatever that means

Do you think the IRiver sounds better than the Creative's models?

You can get the creative players very cheaply on ebay, new or refurbished...

The new iRiver’s (T) series sound rather generic, so maybe Creative players could take the SQ edge.

I suggest that you demo both units, and decide which one you like best

Cheers!
