How good does the music sound on the ipod shuffle?

Sounds great to me. However, I wear hearing aids and I may not be your best source for a review

I use JVC Marshmallow headphones and they also work great EVEN in the rain! You can get them at any department chain store for around $10-$15. They are comfortable unlike the headphones included with the iPod. Any headphone should work but if you wear them a lot, go with the JVC Marshmallow.

I think it sounds good. The sound is more of a reflection of your earphones.

It sounds great! This is a great player that has continued to work EVEN while it was soaked in the rain. It never misses a beat and continues to work flawlessly.

Not sure about the iPod shuffle but I have used it with my iphone 4 and iphone 5 and it works great. It comes with two cords: one is a charger and the other is the cord to play the music in the car. I think they are universal. And yes, it plugs into the earphone outlet of both of my iPhones. Hope this helps!

Yes. Plus, this unit has a DAC, which means that the inferior DAC in the ipod will be bypassed resulting in much better sound.

I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that. All I can say is that I am very satisfied with the new Shuffle.

it has a shuffle all option which works the same as a random option, when u first choose the music option from the main menu the first choice it offers is shuffle all

The shuffle is only great if you want to play similar genres of music and don't need to find a particular song. It's great to use while exercising though, or on continuous play while working, etc. It does have a button to shuffle the music if you want.

It will sound better than any dock as long as:1. Your music isn't overly compressed, which most people tend to do because the iPod headphone out is designed for garbage sound (portable ear buds basically) so no sense in wasting iPod storage space with larger files.2. You use the line out on your pod. Headphone connector will not sound good with this setup (or any setup really). Use the line out and the sound will be great though.

I am not certain as I didn't use the shuffle for that purpose. I found the shuffle to be inferior...spotty performance, headphones not working properly. The shuffle is currently collecting dust while I use an older but more reliable iPod. I would not recommend you purchase this model shuffle. Best of luck to you.

I don't know for sure. It sounds good, doesn't sound like anything is missing from the music.

I use my old shuffle for listening to books. It's small and cheap so I just keep it in my bag for when I need a book. In fact I have started loading only the book onto it and then when I am done with the book I loan it to a friend, ipod and all.

I still use a shuffle because I listen in the car and at night, and the shuffle is the one iPod that you can use without having to look at a screen.

I would say so. The surround sound is definitely not as good as a headphone or a system but it's decent. What you hear also depends on the quality of your music and I say I am enjoying mine so far.

This is my first ipod, so I can't compare to anything other than my older Creativ Zen V-Plus. I would say that for it's tiny size and ease of use, it has very good sound quality, no worse than my Zen which I think sounds great. The earphones that come with the ipod are fine, but I do think the Sony earphones I use allow for more bass to come through.

The bass is nothing great, but sufficient enough. Your source also makes a difference, plugged into my android listening to Pandora, meh. Plugged into my iPod nano,...whoa yea!

That sounds good. I am in the process of reripping the CDs that are WMA's - I knew the Ipod wouldn't play them, and I was worried about the sound quality with converted files. Thanks for the reply!

The sound quality is pretty good all around i hook up my ipod and play music from it all the time.

Using the standard Apple earphones, the Shuffle has astonishing sound quality; the best so far.
