I think the audio quality is sometimes an almost "esoteric" thing. If you like a player, it "definitily sounds better"... I think it's funny how people claim that GSPlayer sounds better than MortPlayer or vice versa (though not in this thread). Both use exactly the same code for the playback itself...
Another point is, the result doesn't only depend from the decoder. E.g. the encoding and hardware differences are important, too. For example an interpolation might result in good sound for low bitrates and a bad sound for high bitrates. And if the volume is pushed to its limit (in certain frequences), it might sound great on one device while the other starts to rattle or use clipping...
