i know all about audio formats..sadly i cant re-rip all couple thousand of my songs as most of my stuff is downloaded/borrowed cds- most is high bitrate vbr though,
i know that aac is better and i can tell the difference but imo aac 160 isnt as good as mp3 320. if it was all lossless it wouldnt fit on my 30gb vid ipod so....
my fav stuff ive managed to find in 320- most of my zepp collectiona and floyd (together its like 500 songs) and the only low stuff are "fad" songs that my friends download when they come over (they dont know better)
mp3 isnt the best but i have to admit that it can be difficult to tell the difference between 320 and a cd (or atleast it is acceptable where as 128 is attrocious)
btw i cant in ear headphones, i like big and goofy best lol (more comfy, don fall out, dont get lost lmao)
edit: dont worry, i never buy bose- cant stand their over priced sh*t sorry i just cant stand buying stuff soley for the name (no i didnt buy my ipod for the name, i needed the smallest 20gb+ player and at the time, it was the best option - the sond hd series software sucked, i gave it a test drive)
i said before i wasnt going to be able to buy headphones, well i got an extra weekend of work...so im back in business. i went to some local stores and they didnt have the grados, would it be worth ordering them without listening first? ive heard the senns (the 100$ model, forget which one) and ive never actually listened to good headphones before and they blew me away.... i cant stand distorted/mucky bass...i get a headache really fast
