Do the Bass/Treble settings work now?  I must have missed that one.

How do you know if it is not placebo effect if you haven't AB them blindly? Also, as safetydan said, you have the music on louder in Apple's OF- the general masses tend to equate louder with better.

It's like when I adjust them to a comfortable volume, iPod FW sounds clearer, the instruments sounds clearer. I'm not stupid you know, some things you don't have to measure them using a digital software to know the difference.

Thanks linuxstb. You seems to know what I'm saying. I'll play around with the bass settings to see if I can get the same results.  :)

The only way to eliminate the possibility of your mind playing tricks on you (placebo effect: http://wiki.hydrogenaudio.org/index.php?title=Placebo_effect) is through blind testing.

I didn't say you are stupid. I also didn't tell you to measure anything digitally. All I said was to do an AB blind test to eliminate the possibility of Placebo Effect.

Sorry that I misunderstood you charles.

Anyway I tried the bass and treble settings. It does sound better but when I listen to heavy metal, the sound becomes distorted at the lower volume than the iPod FW. (before and after I change the settings)

No problem.

What is your setting in "Settings"-> "Sound Settings"-> "Volume"?
