Weaves_ Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hello All,I didn't want to hijack the "Sony vs Ipod" thread, so I thought I would start a new one. I have HD5 and E507. My songs are compressed at Atrac+ 256k.I use Shure e3. I just purchased the Shure 310 (new e4 model).Here is my dilemma, I cannot tell much difference between the HD5 vs E507 when using either of the headphones. Does anyone here have the older models and any of the newer ones?Is the newer sound noticably different (at 256k)?ThanksWeaves Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pata2001 Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 I can only say that the E00x series have noisy/hissy output. Sony probably use cheap components for those models to lower the price point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shinji Ikeda Posted May 15, 2007 Report Share Posted May 15, 2007 Hello Weaves,I do not have the NW-E507, but NW-E403. The sound quality of both the NW-S706 and NW-A808 are superior to that of the NW-E403. The sound is noticeably different (at 96k). I suspect that the sound difference greater at 256k, however I will test this for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
