I am as obsessed with the minute details of the sound emanating from my main system as the next guy here (and some would probably say TOO obsessed).However, I'm relatively indifferent to the quality of mobile sound, above certain threshold of course. For me, that threshold lies at 192 Kbps MP3 files, played back on diminutive Cowon U5 player through Shure SHR440 headphones. Granted, I listen on the train, where noise level is pretty high - but I don't feel handicapped in any way.
The cost of that playback chain is about $150.
Anyone feels the same way?
