Currently in the process of loading up my new '160Gb' Ipod classic (christmas pressie from Mrs Toy smile) Problem is i dont think sound quality from the ipod is as good as from my old Sony HD3 walkman. Or is it my imagination?
Sound has a slight harsh edge, as if the input was to high from recording ?
Trouble is now i'm tuned in constantly listening for it.
Am i being paraniod or do others find the same? Hate to think the 30 odd Gb i've now loaded isnt right.

Some files have been converted from atrac but then a lot is newly imported. (256 bitrate)
To be fair i think the sound is slightly better on newly imported tracks but maybe i'm being overly critical.
Not using the ipod headphones but some decent ones, (not sure of make tho.)

I'm guessing the 'Sony HD3 walkman' is an mp3 player not a tape or cd player.
