Could anyone tell me whether there is a difference between the Panasonic CT480 and CT580 as far as sound quality is concerned? Or is it only optics?
I'm now looking to buy the best sounding PCDP out there after I tried the iRiver2 (Rio Volt 250 equivalent) and was thoroughly disappointed.
First of all the sound is not detailed at all (this could be partly the fault of the mp3s, but when I decoded the files with winamp and wrote them back to a CD, they sounded more detailed even in a cheap SONY portable).
Then there is the annoying hiss which makes it impossible to listen to quiet tracks with sensitive earphones (I prefer the MDR-A34's from sony).
Otherwise the iRiver2 is great, the user interface is a wonder and the player has everything you could hope for. I feel so sad that the sound quality is lacking.
I'm starting to really appreciate my SL-S320 that was stolen from my desk
