You have to rememebr the resolution of his monitor and size of it too. With a 19" lcd at 1280x1024, that mp3 player is huge, lol.

Sound signature feels distant, like you are not there with the artist, no warmth to it at all. Even cnet complained about SQ with N200. The reason I still have it, is that it is the ease of use. AAA rechargables, and it comes with a belt clip UM2's cord is not long enough to have the player dangle in the pant pocket.

I have also come to the conclusion that I really don't need the best of everything to really enjoy my music, groove to the tunes, and ... smile.

I have no desire anymore to endlessly chaise down equipment in (what I perceive to be) the endless pursuit of that last 5-10%. It is a very happy state of mind to be in, because for the first time, I am really enjoying the tunes.

For those times when I really do want to hear that last 10%, then I have my D335, which IMHO sounds sonically better than any DAP that I have heard with my Grados.

Good for you Kramer! While it is nice to improve the equipment we loose sight that it is because of the music we are here.

Man, that's what I say too. Makes me feel a whole lot better about not having the cash to spend on the best of everything!!!

"But if you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with. Do do do do do do do do."

In all seriousness, I also get quite a bit of enjoyment out of my current rig, even though I know that there is much better sound out there. What I've got now has not only substantially increased the time I spend listening to music, but also the variety of music I listen to. Certainly, this place has opened my ears to tons of great music for headphones that I'd never heard before.

Some of us prefer to get as close to the best that you can now, and then sit back and enjoy it. Chances are it will take a while for the cutting edge to become obsolete.
