Probably daft ipod question.

[Goldalene]

I have an 160gb classic ipod which I listen to through headphones, a lot of talking but also music. What I'm wondering is, am I hearing something bright, warm or neutral? I'm trying to work out what I like, and I can't work out what the ipod is, hence the rather basic question. Would the headphones be a massive factor in this? (I use some Sennheisers.) Thanks.

The headphones you use play a large part in the sound of the iPod. The DACs used by Apple are known to be quite neutral and accurate.
