campekenobi Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 Assuming you meant to say "iPod's sound sucks, and it's not as rich"... I would say iPod folk were so busy working on the cute dial & marketing techniques, they forgot all about the little technicality of having great sound! Sony has been in the sound business longer than Apple. (all of this is mere speculation, and my opinion) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skmetal07 Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 maybe if u find a portable amp (or build one for that matter) and use the line out on the ipod then u should have (im making an educated guess from experiences of others i've learned at head-fi) much better sound quality, the apple one apparantly sux.

thepootleflump Posted December 13, 2004 Report Share Posted December 13, 2004 I unfortunately or maybe fortunately have never had the pleasure of listening to a an iPOD so couldn't comment on sound quality. What I can tell you is that digitally recorded matter via my MZ-NH600 sounds considerably better than digitally recorded material on my MDS-JE500 when played through the deck. Sony has obviously done some very good work on the ATRAC format over the years. The old deck is going in the bin It certainly won't be making any more recordings. I read a review ofsomeone slating Sony for continuing to utilise its propritory music format, ATRAC, rather than adopting WMV, MP3 and whatever format Apple uses, anyone care to suggest why.....hmmm let me think.

watcher666 Posted December 18, 2004 Report Share Posted December 18, 2004 It's not the AAC Codec that makes the ipod sound dull, it's the audio hardware in the ipod itself! AAC is quite a good codec! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
