I've never really heard of Sansa before but the seem to have a large fan base here and a lot of people use them. Just wondering why that is.
Buy one,you will find out yourself,you will like it.
I take dkft's FR with a grain of salt, I would trust my ears than that chart. The flat response is not true frequency response with headphones at load(or it is not measured data of headphone output, so it's not useful at all), I'm guessing he loaded with a resistor. Headphone transducer is an inductor, you will not get a flat response with that. I think at no load, any DAP will get a flat response. It's probably best to get an understanding of the graph, how it's measured, and it actually represents what you hear.
That could be the case, but I've seen his graphs state if it is a IEM that is loaded. It's hard for me to believe that graph is with transducer loaded. If you look at NWAVguy's FR graph, the flat response is the one with a resistive load, not the headphone. I would like to see FR measurements from another person other than dkft to see if his graphs are indeed measured correctly and reliable. NWAVguy's measurements have more credibility since it is all explained in detail, and he talks about how it was measured, etc. Just by looking at dkft's graph, it doesn't look like good tools were used, it makes a huge difference in the kind of measurement tools are used.
