Hey,
I have problem with the earphones...If i use original Earphones that is included, sound is OK, but if I use any others (pPhillips, Sony, Panasonic,but bulbs,whitch is inside the ears,nothink big..) the sound loosing bass and "power" .I would like to buy some earphones from Koss or Senhaiser, but I am afraid, that it will be wasting oney, because, i dont know, how to chose the earphones with eliminating this problem...

ALIEN, I use Sennheiser CX300 in ear earphones with no problems. I get much much better audio quality, and increased volume with good strong base. So I am not sure why you are having problems.

ALIEN , what do you mean by "the sound losing bass and power"?

Does the sound become softer?

Yep, its like a earphones are pluged into contact plug only by half of leght, but if I use that earphones on other device, it sounds good...better than original from MP4 player..

ALIEN , perhaps your player is unable to provide enough power to drive the earphone's speakers.

Though this is kind of werid, but usually any type of player should be able to drive the earphones. Perhaps you could contact your seller, might be a hardware problem.

I dont think so that problem is in providing enough power for earphones.I thing that problem is somewhere aroud the Ohms.. because earphone output is 5mW and it is normal rate, maybe the problem is in reduction from normal Jack to small jack...I dont know, probably i have to go to store and tr new eraphones befor I buy them..

ALIEN , typical earphones like Sony, Philips, Panasonic, etc usually are about 16-32ohms. Whilst the headphone kinds are about 32-64ohms. So any normal player should be able to drive the headsets.

I have a 2.5mm to 3.5mm jack which i use for my nano-clone, but that doesn't really matter much as the wire and plug resistance is near to negligible.

Perhaps try the earphones out 1st before you purchase them at the stores.
