ur confusing me here.
you like the sound urself, but the people around u complain about it.
so you are going to replace the sound files. all the 9 folders...now..I hope you created a back-up all of them.
I say get headphones. I didnt like the idea at the begin but now I cant play without them.
get small discman headphones if you dont like the oversized thing over ur head.
if you find those small ones annoying in ur hear...get some stylish big ones. that are comfy enough
