Looking purely at the sound quality of the players which one would you personally choose? do any of them to you lack in general sound quality? or are they all great players and just have different sound signatures?

I wish I had all 3 of them, but now I'm only waiting for my touch.

Lucky me I found this thread so I didn't have to post a new one. I wonder the exact same thing, well actually only between Touch 2G and Cowon D2. I also wonder about battery life time and output power between the two.

Thank you!

probably very few have spent any great time with all 4 products making this poll yet again pointless. i cannot comment as i have also not spent time with all four. i owned the d2 and the touch 2g and liked them both but preferred the touch 2g by far for sound and for sound quality

I only tried the P2 and touch, so i'm not voting. Comparing those two models though the P2 had a slightly warmer sound compared to the touch, but both had excellent SQ. The kicker for me was that the P2's screen is very hard to see in direct sunlight, rendering it pretty much impossible to use during the day.

the touch is a nice toy...

the d2 has the best battery and IMHO it the better sounding dap.

I have not heard the trekstor.

Between the Touch, D2, and P2, I would take the Touch. You can't customize the sound really at all, but the stock sound is quite great, and the addition of LOD possibilities is a very handy feature for amping.

I've read quite many of your posts and you seem to know quite much about PMPs. Do you know what DAC the iTouch 2G has - Wolfson, Cirrus Logic or maybe even something else?

I've listened to the touch and d2, not with the same earphones though. So far I prefer the sound of the touch 2g, it sounds more clear to me, for bass d2 is the way to go with it's BBE settings.

 

[shigzeo]

bbe is probably the best available sound enhancements though: as known with the roll off of the d2, you will only be enhancing the strong thump and no resolution in the bass. sad really as that would be amazing if the d2 had a good bass

But i think the screen on the P2 looks better! I see the P3 is coming out and i'm expecting more improvement.

If you can't see the screen at all, what's the point? I spend quite a bit of time outdoors, so sunlight legibility is important to me

Benefit of iPod Touch; You can add software for added functionality. That is, you can find hacks that allow the iPod to play other file types. Where? I'm not entirely sure, but I know they're out there. If they can crack an iPod, then can definitely add functionality.

Besides, the thing is sexy and the games are fun. What's not to love?

D2 for sure
