What's the best ipod for music only?

It depends on your ears actually.. To me, and coincidentally for quite a number, the best sound quality has got to be the ipod 5.5 generation (30g or 80g) since they use a better audio chip (Wolfson). I used to have a classic but traded it in for the 5.5 gen. The sound of the 5.5 gen is warmer, more natural, 'acoustical', and has more depth. Listen to big speakers when comparing this generation to ALL other ipods and you'll know what we're talking about. Cheers.

I don't use the iPOD, either. The stereo and radios have great sound and it is easy to switch back and forth from steroe to radio, especially if you use the remote.

It does not require an iPod. If your phone has Bluetooth you can play it off that like spotify. You can put music on a USB as well. I'm not sure what the max sampling rate is.

Fussy About Clock Radios,If you are looking for an iPod that does not need headphones then I suggest looking out for an iPod Touch. As far as I know they are the only type of iPod that headphones are not a needed item, but the sound quality drops to only okay.iPod docks do have speakers. They also charge your iPod (depending on what type of dock). Some docks can even function as an alarm clock. I hope this helped.Godspeed!~SWWPD

I'm going to ask you one more question if you don't mind. If I just want the best player I can find to listen to music and don't care about lists, album art, interfaces or anything else. I just want to put my songs on the player and listen to them in the order they come up, which do you recommend? (Can you tell I'm an old lady and just love to listen to music? LOL!) All that matters to me is good sound, ease of putting songs on the player, number of songs I can add to the player and how long it will play music on one charge. Even the Cowan 160 GB player sounds interesting to me.

Protip: No player (as far as I am aware of) requires proprietary software.Proof? I have an iPod nano sitting on my bed, now, that has music loaded onto it, none of which was loaded using iTunes. I used MediaMonkey. If your proprietary software forces you to buy new versions of songs you already have, then scrap the software, because chances are, it's not actually proprietary.

I have about 23gb in music, and closing in on 100gb in movies. I have the 80gb Video iPod. If you're like me, you're gonna wanna wait for at least the 128gb iPod

Here's another viewpoint for your consideration. You might want a nice big classic with tons of storage for *all* your music and other files (I have a 60 GB with tons o' songs, podcasts, and photos). I am currently considering a cute little shuffle or nano to hold a small subset of my total collection, for taking out on walks or whatnot when I want some of my music accessible and don't want to lug around my heavy 60 GB 'pod. So there's a possible reason why someone might want 2 iPods. :-)

I would get an iPod classic, put all of your music on it and then get an iPod dock by Klipsch or Bose

NO. The Apple iPod is everything an Apple iPhone is EXCEPT a cell phone. If you need a cell phone, buy the iPhone. If you want a powerful hand-held mobile computer with hundreds of applications, but no cell phone capability, buy the iPod.

it has a usb port which you might be able to use for that. i forget if it has an aux in, but anything with an aux in can be used w/ an ipod

I never tried to use ipods with it, but it has an AUX input, I guess you can plug any music player into it.

I have Ipod Classic. It works great. Good volume and clear sound for my aerobic class. Love it. I hope someone with Ipod touch will give you a 'Yes" as well.

For me, it's the old iPod shuffle. Tiny, solid, batteries seem to last forever.

I prefer anything to iPod...so I am hardly the best resource; however, I liked this player so much that I immediately bought another one immediately. Sound quality is excellent, videos are okay but the screen is small (I do not use it for videos anyway so it did not matter), and it is easy to use.

Currently internet radio is the only thing I listen to using my Pure dock. I do however use the digital out to my own DAC and when one listens to a decent music stream in terms of kbps, the sound is great. I was considering purchasing a dedicated internet radio/digital content streamer component to complement my hi-fi but with the PURE dock and my iPod Touch, I no longer need to. Just remember that the sound quality always depends on the quality of the source.
