I'm thinking in buying a Sony NWZ-S739F (with 007 promotion for 120€, it's a very nice price and i don't mind the 007 logo).
But i'm always wondering what's the real difference between S639 and S739. Many pages tell the only difference is noise cancelling. But i saw included accesories and checked that S639 and S739 had different headphones:
Sony NWZ-S639F -> MDR-EX082
Sony NWZ-S739F -> MDR-NC020
Then i tried to see why, cause one person told me that EX model's SQ is much better than that NC model. I didn't believe that (S739 is around 200€ usually).
Then i wonder... Noise cancelling function is done ONLY by headphones ? I mean can any model have noise cancelling if you buy a NC model ? I mean NWZ-S639F + MDR-NC020 = NWZ-S739F ???
If so, i don't understand why S739 is so expensive, if its SQ in quiet ambient is worse than S639 with its EX headphones. And i think you could find a S639+better NC model for less amount of money than regular S739. And in that case you'd get a pair of headphones, one for quiet ambient, one for noisy ambient.
IF
(noise cancelling is done through that S739 model)
OR
(that's the only S model in which you can activate Noise Cancelling (and NC is finally done by headphones))
THEN
I'm very interested in S739
ELSE
I'd prefer S639+NC headphones if that offer i told at the beginning wouldn't exist.
What do you think ? Can anyone enlighten me ?
Thanks in advance.
