Sonic Battle-Review: Gigabeat F20 vs. Karma vs. H320
Some
dude over at the Head-Fi.org forums has whipped up a RightMark Audio Analyser test of 3 popular DAPs: Toshiba's F20, Rio's Karma, and iRiver's H320. As he was careful to mention, as are we, this does not
prove anything, especially as to which one sounds better than another. For some reason, it seems that people do not have identically shaped ears nor an identical process for anylzing sound, so the question of which player sounds better will forever be a highly subjective proposition. With that said, measured results are still an interesting thing to ponder. The winner, going by best test measurements, is the Rio Karma. See, we told you that it rules, and stuff.

HEREClick "Read More" to see the rest. The H320's line-out came in a close second, followed by the F20 and then the H320's headphone out took last place.

Man, the guy must have had a lot of time on his hands, but I do appreciate the effort....Karma is always so tempting.
