Hi,
Today I bought the Sony S639F player and I am impressed with the sound.
I played Goldfrapp's Black Cherry album and by selecting Arena in the VPT surround settings it breathed new life into the vocals and instruments giving them a 3D kind of sound. The vocals sound as if I am actually at a Goldfrapp concert and the percussion, bass and synths surround my head. This is the case with every album I have played on my Sony S639F. Other VPT surround presets on the S639F are Studio, Live (another good preset), Club, Matrix (enhances the sound) and Karaoke (I don't know why they called it that as I still hear the vocals LOL
). The Clear Bass on the EQ gives the bass more body while the Clear Stereo gives true stereo. The player also has video and FM radio but I'm not interested in that.
The sound on this player is so crisp, detailed and brings out certain sounds I have never heard before. I feel this player has a much better SQ than my Cowon D2.
I won't be getting rid of my D2 though as I will keep that for recording DAB and as a voice recorder as the S639F lacks the record functions but as an MP3 player my S639F will definately be used.
