Hello,
I've been spending vast amounts of time looking at various other mp3 players other than the Nano which still is my number one choice so far that is. I have been reading about various issues regarding the sound volume being limited on European models and resulting in it being too quiet and I'm concerned that buying a nano may not be suitable for use with my £85 Shure E3c in ear earphones even though they have different covers to use from foam earplug like, to soft silicon tips. I've seen a program that can hack the limiter, does this work for the 2nd generation of Ipod Nano's??? I work in a fairly loud enviroment at work, so having something that's too quiet is no use to me sadly :-( but at the same time, it needn't be like thunder!!
My other concern is regarding the EQ. Does the nano have decent adjustable EQ settings that provides plenty of bass? I have tried several other mp3 players and they all seemed to either lack bass or have too much resulting in a garbled mess whilst pounding your ears!!! My other interest was the Sandisk Sansa E280 but I've seen various stories that it's a pain to work with the mac as it won't always be recognized when plugged into the mac's USB port, not to mention other issues.
So should I take the plunge?
