P.S. Can I get some feedback if this axctually works... I went through the full process but didn't really notice a marked improvement in volume!

Scrub my earlier post - it works a treat... I was listening to an audio book when I first tried it and didn't really feel the benefit until I popped some bangin' tuuunes on.

PlacidCasual - I hear what you are saying but most companies seem to be over cautious these days. I was really dissapointed with the top volume of my Walkman when I first tried it and I'm not the kind of person to usually walk round with earphones pounding to the point of brain-damage.
