Hardware EQ for Ipod 5th gen.

<< < (2/6) > >>

Hi Saratoga,
Yes, i boosted the bass.......on the two ipods,
and the result i sooo different
..........
I must add that I've had the Mini since it came out and bought the video a year ago (also because I can't fit everything on the Mini anymore)
But through iTunes they sound the same
But then again.......iTunes is kind of "flat" compared to RB!
I bought the video from "reputable" sellers, I must add

Don't do that, it'll distort.  The manual has some info about how to use an EQ:

http://download.rockbox.org/daily/manual/rockbox-ipodcolor/rockbox-buildch6.html#x9-1150006.8

Basically, you want to lower frequencies, not raise them, so either lower then explicitly or apply enough precut that you don't distort.

h.finn:
Look,
I'll experiment during the w-end (with the 5.5gen. that is, 'cause the other one's just so good).
And I undertsand your point...........still I don't understand this difference between the two!
The 5.5gen one even distorts a little (on the bass frequencies) on the equalizer preset that comes when you first install RB.
Sooo frustrating!

...............
P.S.: How do I know which one is the current eq? I mean: where do I look?
