I do not know what you are asking.  Use full words please.

Considering this is the Audio Playback forum, I am going to assume that you mean sound quality.

If that is what you meant, see: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=6139.0

Sorry for that, I'm just not good at english. I'll try though

I checked your link but I dont get anything. Only thing I do get is that the graphs seem similar, so does that mean two firmwares have no big difference? ???

As far as I've read and understood.

Between lossless formats, the two firmwares are nearly identical.

Between lossy formats, that depends on the decoder. But I'm not sure how it compares between the two different firmwares.

Basically, the thread has determined (so far) that there is no audible difference between the 2 with stock settings.  However, with rockbox's features like the EQ and crossfeed, etc, you have a much bigger ability to make your music sound however you want.

Short Answers:

all settings off: same
with settings: rockbox > apple
