Cnet says it has stellar sound quality through headphones... but it's true that cnet says ipod nano's quality is stellar too. Does anyone own this strange and cool looking Samsung dap?

I had the chance to audition the samsung mp3 player and the SQ is unequivocably miles ahead of the ipod. I was testing with my superfi 3s and was quite disappointed with the 8gb nano. I had to crank up the volume to close to max in order to make sense of the music. Worse of all, distortions were present. In contrast, the samsung player drove the superfi 3s very well and the sound was music to my ears. Even though ipod's design and player navigation is bar none, SQ suffers. Of course, you could always mod the ipod, but I would prefer a player that plays well straight out of the box.

I BOUGHT THIS CUTE MP3 PLAYER COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO AND SO FAR IAM VERY HAPPY WITH THAT. IT'S SHOWS RICH DETAILS(RICH MIDS,CLEAR HIGHS WITH PUNCHY BASS) ON MY SUPER.FI 5PRO, 5EB, SHURE E4C AND SENNHEISER CX300. ALSO FEATURES AND BATTERY LIFE ARE GREAT TOO. BTW IT'S NEW UPCOMING VERSION ARE COMING SOON(YP-K3).
