The Ep11....i hated this unit, piece of junk. Mine died after 2 months of use, worst of all, it sounds like ****.

Bagman, you can't go wrong with any of the new units, you may also want to look into a deck if you have an old deck, like the JE320. I have a Type R deck and the sound quality is marvelous.

Magicthyse,

I'm always baffled by people describing Sony MD units as lacking in the sound quality department. I have the MZR50 and E75 player and they sound great, very crystal clear and drive my Sony 7506's and Grado headphones without any problems. In fact, my MD+headphones rival any discman+headphones i've tried.

The ones you've had are fine. Try the N1/E501/etc and you will notice a difference.

me too - i have an mzr900 and the ety er4p. the combo sounds great. admittedly, i don't do a lot of comparison, but you couldn't fault the sound for a portable set up i don't think.
