My current setup is a Rockboxed Sansa e260+microSDHC, and I'm happy.
BUT, I heard that I might be sacrificing sound quality. If so, I need to upgrade.
My requirements:
-If I can't expect a serious upgrade in SQ, I'm happy as-is.
-No HD players less than 40G. The 32G SDHC cards are coming out.
-Rockbox, or EQ/audio tweaking of comparable quality.
Don't need video. (On those screens? Please.) I like battery life, but I'm not rigid over it. AC adapters are nice, but this will be mostly a mobile unit.
I use IEMs, so I almost never amp.
I'm thinking <$300 USD. I don't mind paying more if quality is commensurate to price. Sound quality, that is. I don't care for pretty bells and whistles--a battered stainless steel cube would do, if it sounds right.
So, should I go shopping, or is it Sansa For Life?
