I've been looking for some real review of the most recent ipod classic 120GB, and here and there I read of people finding like me that the audio quality is rather low. Wikipedia reports this:
According to certain tests performed both by hearing and through computer analysis of the sound, the 6th Generation iPods lack sound quality in the mid range, and produces less spatial information (i.e. stereo sound plays 'inside your head' instead of 'outside') due to higher impulse in the treble compared with 5G.[5] Apple has not yet commented on this problem.
A firmware update, 1.1.1, released by Apple for the iPod Classic is said to, among other things, improve the sound quality. [6] However, no details on these improvements were given on the Apple website.
Another later update, 1.1.2, is shown to correct bug fixes, but is nonetheless another minor update.
That really depitcts what I am hearing. And, the volume lever is rather low, as I said before.
