iPod & Headphone question

/usr

Just ordered an iPod Shuffle, but didn't order any "decent" headphones, just because I wanted to try the ones provided. They aren't that great and I'm not too impressed with the sound quality.

I'm assuming that it IS the headphones, considering the same mp3 sounds much better on cd and could sound better on a home stereo.

Am I right? Do I just need to shell out some cash for a very decent set of headphones?

I recently got an IPOD Photo color. And I have to say that yes, the headphones make a ton of difference. I'm sure this is also the case with the shuffle.

Also, on mine (not sure about the shuffle though) if you scroll through the menu, you'll find the sound settings where you can tweak it, it's just like an EQ.

The shuffle has no settings to tweak as far as I know, unless you can do so through the software. There is menus actually on the player itself.

Ok my bad. I forgot the shuffle doesn't have a screen.

I've got an ipod mini and station and believe me the headphones make a big difference, apart from the fact if you bust them they cost you around $30 to replace!
