SONY's SOUND OUTPUT

[suland]

Just wanted to mark that sound output on our SONY HD's is GREAT! I have recently listened to the latest IPOD and have been really disappointed! Why do they take this money for their products? They have made hundreds of millions on ipods and can't improve it?!!! I am not telling about the stuff like RCA or some other chinese brands as the sound output there is VERY bad! For those people who own them it's better to buy old cassette players as sound output is similar.

The only my concern is that SONY's output has a very light "Shhhhhh" noise while playing, but it doesn't arise as you increase the volume.

I never heard any shhhh noise from my NW-HD5 while playing .But my people have reported this in the forum.

I'm not quite sure what you're talking about there. I have an RCA Lyra and sound output is as good as Sony HDD players.

SULAND - See the recent post titled "A3000 white noise during playback".

As I posted in my reply on that topic the slight "Shhhhhh" noise, as you term it, seems inherent in ALL HD players, irrespective of brand/model.

Anyway, check out the above for more info.

I did have one BRAND NEW RCA LYRA 2780 a week ago and the sound output is VERY BAD. There is a lot louder "Shhhhh" and many other noises coming from the sound. Their DAC is lacking quality. All IMHO.
