Is there a noticeable sound difference (dialogue, voices) between the 220 and the 420? I have the 220 with my Samsung and it helps somewhat.

Like you, I have the 220. Can't tell a big difference. If I had it to do over again I think I would go ahead and go up to the 420

I also have the 220 with a Samsung TV. But my room is fairly small (home office 10x10). If you have not done so, set the TV speakers to "mute" so that all of the audio comes thru ZVOX speakers. The 420 would be better in a larger room, since the unit is more powerful than the 220. You might already know about the "dialogue enhancement" button on the ZVOX remote, but just in case, give that button a chance to improve the sound quality. I believe it is "off" by default. So consider the bigger ZVOX if you have a large listening room.

The sound quality should be the same for all three versions. The difference is that buying the android version for an android, or the iphone version for an iphone will give you a nifty volume slider and a play/pause button. So if all you're really looking for is the sound quality, I'd go for the cheaper ones. Ya feel me, homie?

Well, I downloaded an app for my phone but I do not trust it. My mild speaking voice is registering at 90dB on the app. I can give you an estimate though. Talking is between 50-65dB and I can talk to my wife without raising my voice while she has it on high. So, I'd guess it falls around 55ish.

I think the specs are very similar, if not the same. As I recall, the frequency response graph at the Headroom Web site shows perhaps a slight rise in the bass over the K701. Subjectively, the sonic signature is very similar, with perhaps a tad more bass. I like both 'phones, but have a slight overall preference for the K702.

never used a DT-400... but speaking for the DT-210, there are 3 speaker settings... #1 the normal audio speaker is mono, but has a Deep Bass Boost switch and actually sounds great.... #2 mono earbuds, and #3 stereo earbuds.... in the Allentown area there are probably 20 to 30 local FM music stations available... they sound absoutely awesome in stereo with the provided earbuds... if you have a favorite headset/earphones I'm sure the stereo sound would be incredible.... but remember we're talking a 3 inch radio... not an elaborate Pioneer stereo system costing thousands of dollars.... I'd have no problem walking with this radio, but that's me....

Thanks for the info. I ended up keeping my 1st gen & doing the upgrade for $10. I love it! After using it the speaker seems like it would be worthless & it is very easier to adjust the volume anyway.

Hi M., sorry I didn't get right back to you...Yes, I'm surprised that people aren't commenting. Sound is not an insignificant element! Soooo... Does the 210 sound more "lively" and "present"... more Sony-like!? :-) If so, I certainly should have bought THAT one recently when I went to Sangean (El Monte, CA) distribution and swapped 400's, after I lost FM reception on my old one!Thanks,Alan

Not sure how it is compared to the 500 ,but the 410 sounds pretty good but had a lot of trouble setting up. I was on the phone a few times for while with sony about the wireless. I run it direct with rca jack to dvd player. The wireless kept dropping.

Yes, we have both also and they both play fine. Only difference I've noticed is sometimes the SD audio is a little quieter, but still able to hear it just fine.

Even though I haven't listened to both, I thought I'd reply anyway. I combed thru the net for reviews on both. There are many for the 10.1 and only a couple for the 10.2. None compared the two. Obviously, 10.2 will produce more bass, but I was afraid that larger woofer wouldn't handle the upper midrange as well. No review discussed that, so it's my own supposition. I bought the 10.1, and the bass is very solid and goes lower than I anticipated. Very happy with it. Hope this helps at least a little bit.

Just my opinion, there is likely not to be any big difference, assuming you have a recent/decent mob. The sound card will give you more bells and whistles to play with - echoes, equalizer, etc. However, quality of sound is not likely to be noticeable. Hope this helps.

3602 is good but definitely 3908. I own both first having the 3602 then upgrading to the 3908 and they both were the money! Great sound range on the 3908 and it can get really loud

The new M50x have a bit more bottom-end and bit less top-end than the older M50. This translates to a slightly different listening experience that in my estimation is an improvement of the new over the old.If you open each link below in a separate tab, you can switch between the tabs and watch the changes in frequency response.Here's the M50x graph:http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID;[]=4313&scale;=30Here's the M50 graph:http://graphs.headphone.com/graphCompare.php?graphType=0&graphID;[]=2941&scale;=30

Honestly, I can not compare as I have not tried the other. Obviously, it has lots more power. As a previous audiophile, I can tell you that although "sound bars" are convenient they do not compare with real amplifiers and reals speakers. I can tell you I am happy with the sound, and the digital input works well with my 60 inch 1080p 3D TV. My only complaint is when you use digital input you have to use the rinky dink remote that came with the sound bar to control the volume. My advise is don't skimp on sound it is just as important as the picture when it comes to watching movies. Honestly, I can not compare as I have not tried the other.

The 420 series has the Runtime Extension Technology with dual-mode accelerator switch for high performance or longer run time. It also has up to one hour of runtime when using dual mode switch in run-time mode. The 220 series does not included this new technology.

I heard from other people that the Fiio E17 has slightly better and clearer highs, not really noticeable, when listening to certain music like classical, ballad, etc. The E18 has better lows, which make music like EDM, R&B;, Hip-Hop all more enjoyable. I do believe it was said that the E18 does have a bigger soundstage, but that really depends on the capabilities of the headphones/speakers connected to it. Overall, if you already own the E17, then the E18 is not really too big of an upgrade, seeing as they are essentially similar. The E18 does have some features that the E17 does not, but they are more gimmicks/goodies than actual upgrades. And that goes both ways for the E17 as well.
