Which ipod I should buy? - sound quality

I have bought ipod photo to replace my ipod 3G 15GB, i feel disappointed about ipod photo. It seems that it is quieter than my old ipod, and if I turn the volume to be louder, the sound seems distorted. Also, the detail of music sounds worse than before too.
So I am looking for ipod mini or ipod shuffle. I only consider sound quality, which one should I buy?
Espeically those with one or more ipod, please come to share your point of view. I know different ipod sounds a little bit different. So I wanna know how do they differ?

Well Ipod Mini And Ipod Shuffle have the same apple earphones but if your looking for a better device go with mini.. this is goanna cost you more but the shuffle is cheaper and it also has great sound but i suggest the mini it has a screen and holds more songs

Please advise which iPod I should buy

I'm a newbie when it comes to iPods. I currently have a 2GB nano that I take with me when running but I intend to buy a video iPod big enough to store all my CD's on it. I will not be using it to watch videos, I just need the big storage capacity. I currently have about 100 CD's plus a lot of downloaded music on my computer and I mean a lot.
Which one would you guys advise me to buy: the 30 or the 80 GB iPod?
Thank you.

What you should do is try and get a look at both. I
chose the 30 because I wanted to carry it around the
house in my pocket and it was not as bulky.
Suffice it to say it isn't bulky vs. the 30. Yes it is thicker by 1/8" or so, not like it is a bowling ball vs. a golf ball in difference - if you can afford the 80 get the 80, as it will surely be needed sooner than you think.
Here's the info:
Size and weight (30GB)
Height: 4.1 inches
Width: 2.4 inches
Depth: 0.43 inch
Weight: 4.8 ounces
Size and weight (80GB)
Height: 4.1 inches
Width: 2.4 inches
Depth: 0.55 inch
Weight: 5.5 ounces
So.....it is 0.12 inches thicker (under 1/8 of one inch) and weighs 0.7 ounces more which is 5% more. Holy cow! I can see the need for a wheeled cart due to this tonnage pulling one's trousers off ones body.

I am interested in buying a macbook laptop. I am confused however in which one I should buy for the type of work that I will be doing. I either am looking into getting a macbook pro or the macbook air. I am leaning more towards the air.

A basic MBA will be more than adequate. Take into consideration that storage may be a long term issue unless you are not averse to traveling with an external HDD.

IPod Classic 6th Generation Sound Quality

So I'm looking to buy the iPod Classic 6th Generation (80gb) because it's cheaper than the 7th Generation. But after some internet research, people are saying the sound quality is really bad. Is there any way to upgrade the sound quality, and just make it better?

iPod Classic doesn't have any wireless built-in, so you would need a wireless microphone system plugged into the iPod output (and which is the size of 2 iPod Classic) and a wireless receiver. so it won't be very comfy to "walk around home, and this stuff start around 100$, so you'd be better off with an iPod Touch, although it has less storage.

New ipod color lost clear sound quality

My new ipod which was a Christmas present lost its very good sound quality. It now plays everything "fuzzy" -- like with static. I have reset and restored (only once so far), but with no luck. The sound is still terrible. It is not the earphones, because I tested them on the computer. I have also had other people listen to make sure it just wasn't me.
Do I need to send it back to Apple for repair?

IPod Shuffle vs Nano sound quality

Hello.
I'm planning on buying the new iPod Shuffle. Is the sound quality the same as the latest iPod Nano?
~Matt

Haven't listened to latest (3rd Gen) nano but I do know that current shuffle sound quality is a bit less than that of 1st Gen shuffle and 1st Gen nano. But that's MY opinion, your experience may vary...

New Ipod Touch 5g, poor sound quality?

Hi,
I recently got given a silver ipod touch for christmas, after having had a 5G nano ipod for a few years. i had always had no problem with sound quality with that ipod. However, I have noticed that even with my Bose headphones and on my Bose dock, certain songs heavy in bass (seems to be a lot of hip hop), such as my Jay-Z and Drake albums, the bass is very bad and fuzzy and messy. It sounds terrible. I have listened to the very same songs through my Macbook Pro through headphones and there is no problem. All my music is from itunes/amazonmp3/CDs so I don't understand whether my ipod is faulty or whether this is just how the new Ipod Touch is? If so I am returning it pronto! I need my bass!

Try:
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Symptoms like app crashes, 5 sec to unlock and many more arent rare.
Just sayin.

Need help on deciding which Mac I should buy

Alright, so I have a very important decision I need to make and I really need help making it.
My two choices:
Choice 1: My first choice is that I have $1378 dollars to buy a MacBook. My choice is the MacBook air 13" with 128 GB hard drive, 8 GB Memory, and 1.7 GHz processor.
Choice 2: My Dad does not want his MacBook Air 11" base model from 2012. He is willing to give it to me. In return, I will give him the $1378 and he will buy himself a $400 laptop from that. Then he will buy me a 500 GB Thunderbolt hard drive and a thunderbolt to hdmi adaptor for the MacBook Air. The remaining money will then go to me.
Either choice I take, I need a computer fast enought to do serious video editing with Final Cut Pro and Multi-tasking. Also, it needs to last 3 years. Which choice should I take. I have one week to decide. Either way, my dad will pay for my Mac OS X Mavericks Update.

The processors in the new MacBook Airs are not that much more powerful than the 2012 models, the real difference is in the battery life. When you say your dad has the base model, I'm assuming that is the 4 GB RAM/64 GB SSD version. You would be cutting it close on storage space, but the external Thunderbolt drive would make up for that. 4 GB RAM is also cutting it close, especially for video editing, but I hear the flash storage on the MacBook Airs helps compensate for that.
If it were me, I would go with option 2, considering you should have a pretty good chunk of change left over once your dad buys his laptop and your Thunderbolt accessories.

Hello.. plz help me,, !! which iphone i should buy???

hello.. i am going to america... so iam thinking to buy a iphone 4s which i have checkd.. in store.apple.com 649 $ with unlocked.. version... Can i buy?
MY network is VOdafone IN

Keep in mind that warranty and support is only valid in the country where the device was originally sold by Apple or their authorized reseller. In the US, the only way to get an unlocked iPhone is directly from Apple.
With that in mind and the understanding that if a hardware issue occurs it will require returning to the US for support, is it still worth the effort to purchase a device in the US? Most find it is better to simply pay the premium to buy a device in their own country where they can get support if/when they need it.

Which Ipod Cleaner Should I Use?

Like many people I've got some minor scratches showing up on my screen, and after viewing all the different posts regarding scratches, I've only come across two cleaning solutions, but I'm not sure which one is better or if there is one I've yet to hear about. The two I've found are:
ICleaner http://www.icleaner.com/
and
Applesauce http://www.applesaucepolish.com/
Does anyone have any experience with either of these? Please post your results and recomendations. Thanks!

I personally am a fan of the sRGB on the Mac. I think the blue comes out very nice when comparing it to the others.

IPod Classic 160GB Sound Quality Questions

My question relates to this older thread found here http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1126861
Basically, it's that the new iPod Classics have inferior sound quality compared to older models because of the new Cirrus DAC, with reports of it sounding too bright/fatiguing/metallic/too much treble.
I love warm and laid back sound, so this concerns me and is the only thing stopping me from purchasing one. However, I am going to mainly use it in my car hooked up to a Pioneer P6100BT through USB which bypasses the iPod's DAC and uses the Pioneer one. Since I won't be using the iPod's DAC, will these sound issues not apply to me?
Thanks in advance!

The Apple Discussions thread begins in September 2007 - old 160GB iPod Classic.
This long thread suggests that the latest 160GB model has improved sound quality.

Ipod Classic sound quality

i bought a ipod classic but the sound quality sound really ****** and the volume is 2 low APPLE I WANT MY MONEY BACK !!

2 factors:
1. are you importing tracks at 128 bit (or less)?
2. are you using Apple earbuds or some other company?
Tracks at 128 or lower may sound tinny/am radio-ish.
Low-end earbuds may also sound "off"
128 bit is great for space conservation, especially on the smaller ipods (2-4gb), but the tradeoff is sound quality.
Since the classic has sufficient space, I would check iTunes prefs and reset track import quality to 256 or higher. Personally, I import at variable lossless. Typically runs between 950 and 1100 bit, which is close to CD quality.
