@Dr. Walrus,
If you are in doubt to the theme of the thread, just look at the top for a hint. THe originator has made it clear several times that in his mind, the w810i is the best .mp3 player on the market, ever created. Did you miss that too? Anyway, the originator also talked about disassembling a pair of speaker and amp to create a headphone amp. Did that escape you as well? As for the CD sound quality, if you had bothered to read back in the thread, the sound quality issue was raised. If you are going to criticize, at least have your facts straight.

Ok,
The original poster is a colleague at work, and I've seen (and trialled) this project at various stages of development. Having discussed it with him at some length regarding the purpose of the project and the fact that he was dismantling a set of speakers that i particularly liked, i think it's fair to say that I am
right and you are
wrong. The modification was simply to improve quality on existing products without spending hideous amounts of money, and the quality (and certainly the volume) is indeed above that of a good deal of portable audio systems. The original poster feels that this is above any system he has had the pleasure of experiencing, which is purely subjective, isn't it.

Nice pictures by the way. If you read back I have said countless times that hearing is subjective, (point for me). I have also said that he can do whatever he wants to do as it is his money, (another point for me). His being a co-worker of yours is moot. Adds nothing to the discussion one way or another. As to you and him having debates at length about this, I hope it was not at work as this would make you both slackers. Soooooooo the moral of the story is, follow along now, I COULD NOT CARE LESS WHAT HE DOES OR DOES NOT DO. I am quite content with my Etymotic headphones as well as my Ultimate Ears so you will not see me purchasing (actually I rarely purchase anything from SE as I get most of my phones free because I do work for them) a speaker system and chopping it up.

actually, my point was that you said:
Quote:If you are in doubt to the theme of the thread, just look at the top for a hint. THe originator has made it clear several times that in his mind, the w810i is the best .mp3 player on the market, ever created. Did you miss that too?
which is why i stated i work with the originator and obviously this proved the above statement wrong. of course I'm not in doubt.
Quote:His being a co-worker of yours is moot. Adds nothing to the discussion one way or another.
i think it's entirely relevant, since you told me i was at doubt as to what his motives were.
Quote:I have said countless times that hearing is subjective
then we're agreed? how does the fact that you're waving a flag about it make your contribution to the discussion any more meaningful?
Quote:he wants to do as it is his money, (another point for me)
he didn't pay for them. and they are still also in working order. scratch that point for you and add two for me?
Quote:I COULD NOT CARE LESS WHAT HE DOES OR DOES NOT DO
you sound kinda angry for someone who doesn't care...
Quote:slackers.
i think the walrus i drew took a little more of my productivity time.

@ sapporobaby, I really struggle to understand why you ever responded to this thread? Quite simply your happy with the status quo, my question is why knock a perfectly logical enhancement for people whom require both a louder volume and in thier subjective opinion higher quality sound?
Oh and in regards to your apparent Relationship with Sony Ericsson, just maybe your not the only one? Food for thought...

Oh the humanity!!!!!!!!!
1. Stop struggling.
2. I do not have like or agree with your solution.
3. It is my right to laugh at, criticize, or provide support of your solution. I did both. The first by my own volition, the second because of the funny pictures people sent it.
4. Status quo? I have been screaming at Apple now for a year or so that there is not enough amplification in their devices to drive really expensive, high-end headphones such as the Etymotic's but after the stupid lawsuits they even put a volume limiter on it, so no, I am not happy with the status quo. Your device or solution works only for phones and is another added battery draining piece of equipment that someone has to carry. In my subjective opinion, the tradeoff is not worth it, so I will suffer with my non-externally amplified sound. By the way, amplifiers are readily available as an add on for the iPod.
5. Everyone here knows that an amplified sound, in most cases is a good thing and in some cases not, so you have 6 here and a half dozen there.
As for your SonyEricsson relationship, I say good for you. Getting the newest phones for free, for unlimited loan, or for a seriously reduced price is great huh? I know I enjoy my privilege.
So, are we over this yet? Can we close this thread yet, or maybe more funny pictures will be posted. Either way, I am over it.
