sound on Sansa e200
skatanafas:
...when I tested it, I join my Sansa to active 2-way reproductors(SP-HF 1250X /40W RMS) to listen all differences and play 192kbps mp3(hung up/madonna-from my sister:) my music isnt good for it)...I dont know how describe that....with RB wasnt sound so rich....its like u have sound system 5.1 and detach center speaker and subwofer when i overdraw it..but differences was wide. sure i tray all EQ setups etc...
I sad already...maybe its only my problem!!!

2 Ndoak: Thanks for tips!!!!...i try it
saratoga:
"Isn't as rich" usually means you have the volume set differently. Since the hardware is the same regardless of the firmware, the only differences should be volume and stability, which Rockbox currently has issues with on the Sansa.
There was some talk today in IRC about how these problems could be resolved, so it seems like the current problems will be resolved relatively soon.
skatanafas:
believe me...i dont mean different volume set. RB can influence many sound setups so I thought that can influence resulting sound quality. I tray it now with headphones...EQ off in both firmwares and I swear RB is worse. WHY I?? >:(
pls how to use files xxx.path? sorry for stupid questions, I cant find it. Im rookie, i have rock box 3 days
Febs:
If you really want to test Rockbox's sound quality against the original firmware, I suggest that you do this:
1. Hook up your Sansa to the line-in of your computer.
2. Use an audio editing program like Audacity to record a clip of music played on the Sansa with the original firmware.
3. Record a clip of the same piece played on the Sansa with Rockbox.
4. Use Audacity to trim the files so that they both start in exactly the same spot.
5. Normalize each file so that they are precisely the same volume.
6. Use Foobar or a similar program to ABX the two clips.
You could also use RightMark Audio Analyzer to compare the output of the player with each firmware.
These procedures will give you much more accurate results than simply trying to conduct an uncontrolled, sighted test.
