Recommended headphones for WT19?? - Sony Ericsson Xperia Mini, Mini Pro, Xperia Pro, A

Hi, I stupidly broke the default headphones that come with this phone (live with walkman) and i liked them very much because the sound was great! but now I don't know where can I get new ones, or if someone knows about some good headphones for this phone, but that don't work via bluetooth... please.

Every earphone.
For me that earphone bundle sound suck.
Less bass with alot of mid-tone and high-tone.
I really hate its sound.
And almost earphone in the market can give you a mid-high tone.
Only a few that can give enough bass.
PS. anyway how much your budget?
And what you prefer to use earphone,ear-bud(in-ear) or headphone?

Well I'd pay 30 bucks for some good earphones, or headphones is ok for me.

I recommend you Philips SHE8500 - one of the best in-ear headphones in budget segment in my opinion. Enough bass, nice treble and middle and small cost. Also try DSPManager APK - set of sound effects and also good global equalizer - this one can radically change your sound to the best

well i'm using candy skull 50/50 ear buds. sound quality is awesome i would say :good:

Headphone :
-Sennheiser HD 201
-Sennheiser HD 202-II
IEM :
-dbE PR-18
-dbE PR 20-II
-Superlux HD381 series

As long as you keep away from crappy Beats by Dr. Dre, you will be fine.
They're expensive and quality is lower than a lot cheaper Sennheisers.

I used Sennhieser HD 202, I know it's cheap but the sound is so great. just stay away from Beats, it's crap.

+1, i have these as well (maybe it's an older variant, i have them for about 4-5 years).

now, i use nokia BH-503,,, the sound is great but, its drain battery faster. as far as i know its legend bluetooth headset. CMIIW.

i use yuin pk3, the best at the price and quality. if you want know more about eaphone, just check www.head-fi.org , i know yuin pk3 from that place, you can search what is the best for money in there.

Don't ever buy Skullcandy. You can get the standard Sony headset back if you search online for about €15

yep, you can't go wrong with Sennhiesers. GF took my stock earphones (she doesn't like in-ears) and gave me some brandless china in-ear earphones which surprisingly sounds better.
and for the love of god, stay away from Beats.

ive got a skullcandy smokin buds and im loving it:good:

Try these:
they are expensive and were kind of out of my budget as well when I bought(a older version of these) about more than a year back.. But they are totally worth it.. Nothings has come close to giving the quality of audio that these provide IMO.. The loudness, the bass.. The bass goes all the way without distortion..

Which earphones would you recommend for the X10

I would like to get some advice on which earphones I should get for the X10... I would like them for music... not too fussed if they have a mic or not...

They also have a black version. These earphones are pretty cheap ( I bought them for 20 euros, they sound good , nice deep tones and bass)
Ouch, Sennheiser. They make great headsets but for me those bass-tones is way too much. Personally I use d-Jays. Crisp yet powered sound. I love them. Edit: Forgot price. Lol. In Sweden I can get them for about $100 and that's pretty nice. But yeah, it's way more than €20.
Looking to get a set of BH-905's when I get a free bit of cash!
Seemingly I cant post a link to them as thats not permitted for newbies
Just to help you out, here's a pic of them.
Are you guys able to speak into the phone's Mic when using your own earphones during a call? Mine can't and I have to plug them out when a phone comes in.
Im thinking about getting the CX500 earphones... got a price of £29.99... which seems to be good...
I want to have bassy sound but want my mids and trebles...
I am currently using boss earphones...
CX500's sound good. I can't remember what mine are, but they are Sennheisers that have exactly the same buds as the Sennheisers Sony Ericsson use on their HBH-DS970 bluetooth headphones.
For arguements sake, the DS970's go louder than when using the headphone socket on the X10, but the headphone socket sounds nicer.
Been doing some comparisons Nexus vs X10 vs iPod Touch 3G with the same headphones.
Nexus goes louder than X10, quality doesn't sound as good, but it's rooted with Cyanogen which makes the volume louder.
Touch goes a lot louder than both devices, enough to hurt my ears, but does so with high quality. I can't decide whether or not the quality is better than the X10, it's very close.
My headphone tastes are bias towards bass, but I do like the mids and treble to remain...just like to have a thump also!

Is it a european or american touch?
The european union puts a volume restriction on the iPods sold in europe, therefore an american (or asian or whatever) iPod Touch would be louder than a european one.
(just thought that might be a factor in the volume department)
Not all european iPod's are subject to such measures IIRC. I know france is, and it is something I checked before purchase, as a 85dB limit would have been no good!

will be using them on my X10 next week

			
				
iems ike westone, shures or etymotic are great. just be forewarned they are pricey. my westone um1 were bout 120. amazing clear sound but the bass isn't very heavy
I'm using the first half of the standard headphones (MH 500).. So this gives me the microphone and allows me to take calls etc.. .then I plug in my JVC HA FX-300's (c. £50)..

I can't wait to get mine. I sent in the Rogers promo claim form on Monday, so it'll be a few weeks at least.
I'm using the included X10 headphones right now, which are decent. I'm surprised that for earbuds that don't go into the ear canal, they actually stay in my ears pretty well (most such earbuds I've tried don't).
I did take a quick look at the local shopping center today while I way there for some buds that wrap over the ear, as I find them more comfortable and they stay in my ear better. However, I couldn't find any headphones of any style that had short cords like the ones included in the X10. Since the X10 has the mic dongle (which I use) I don't want to have an extra few feet of cable hanging around.
Anyone found any decent headphones that are on a short cable like those included with the X10?
I am using MW600 too.
I find the volume control is not that sensitive.
I have to swipe a couple of time before I can get it working.
Is it normal?

What Headphones Do You Use?

Hi, I thought it would be cool to see what kinds of headphone setups we're using. Here's mine:

I love them- for under 60$, they are the best phones I've found...I've been through a few different sets, and have returned them all, until these.
And I run them through the Fiio E5 amplifier.
http://www.amazon.com/FiiO-E5-Headphone-Amplifier/dp/B001P9EQH8
This little thing is awesome. If you don't use one of these, get one! I can't believe the difference it makes in my listening enjoyment. On headphones, or through a 3.5mm to my car stereo, this thing gives a richer sound, more bass- (lots, if you turn boost on) and a lot more volume. I used to have to turn my car stereo up pretty loud to get the volume I wanted out of my portable sources, and it would mean that I'd have to deal with some degree of electronic hiss- That's gone. Also, sometimes I like to listen to music at ridiculous, ear damaging volume- and I would turn the volume all the way up on my Ipod or tablet, and it would be loud, but not really loud... Now, with the amp-I can turn it up till it hurts... and I'm afraid to go louder... It's awesome.
I bought a 3.5mm Monster cable with these , and I gotta say I LOVE the sound now..
What do you guys use?
Koss
I use Koss Porta Pro. I love wearing these headphones. Excellent sound and cheap.
I use Koss Pro DJ100's, which I bought at Best Buy a few months ago when it was on sale for $45-50. I love them. The sound is very detailed, with good depth, bass and soundstage. You really have to run them through an amp, though, otherwise they don't sound as good. I run them through a Fiio E7.
I also use Monster Turbines for earphones when I dont' want to carry my full sized cans around.
For portability I use the Sansa Clip+ with Etymotic ER4Ps. At home I use ER4S or AKG K702 with my HeadAmp Pico DAC/amp.

I have a now ancient Plantronics Pulsar 590E Bluetooth stereo headset that works well. There is a slightly noticeable audio lag when watching movies, but it's not enough to be a problem for me. Amazingly, this last week, I was able to get factory replacement ear pads when mine disintegrated from age.
Bye.

That amp he mentioned is decent for IEMs but if you want to properly power over the ear headphones you may want something a little bit better.
I went with the Pico brand because I couldn't find anything else that could have that much power AND output a flat frequency response.

Lots of serious eadphones around here!
I nearly spent the cash for the Klipsch image one phones today... my kicker cans have good bass, but aren't overly "punchy"... i listened to the KI1`s, and I liked th bass response but I wonder if the punch would become overbearing on certain music styles without constant e.q. tweaking...
What do you guys think are the best over/on ear phones for 150 or less?
Koss Porta Pro. They seem to be very popular.

I think, some users can't correctly set EQ. RAZR rocks. I got SoundMAGIC E10 IEM.
Using PowerAMP. It really roxxx. For the first time i used RAZR as player i was totally dissapointed. But I've done few things and I'm really happy.
Rule #1 settings -> sound - audio effects for headphones -> OFF(!)
I takes time to correctly set EQ, but it's worth it.

One question? How much volume u set? Over 90% it doesn't sound good, because of preamp.
If u got this weird sounds, u gonna better buy another headset mine's E10 rox vocals are clear and loud, bass is punchy, deep, low, dynamic and strong. I really enjoy listenin' on combination RAZR + SM E10 + PowerAMP

Skullcandy ink'd mic'd
Hi,
i bought a Skullcandy ink'd mic'd today which was mentioned as compatible with iPhone. unfortunately it is not compatible with my Xperia Neo. I have to push down the talk button in order to hear proper sound. other times it echoes. The same headset works fine on my laptop and desktop. just letting u all know so that u dont make the same mistake I did.
Edit : Read on another thread that this can be fixed by using an 3.5mm audio M to F adapter. From what I understand it has something to do with the pin configuration.
Can anyone confirm if this is true? Then I can probably look for this adapter online. Please provide any indian link for this adapter if possible.
Thanks in advance
sure it has to do with pinout sony made a stupid decision on this one
as with chargers there should be a pinout for all earphones.

Hi,
Thank you for the link.
The TRRS adapter in the first link says : "This adapter will not enable the mic/volume buttons of a 3-button Apple compatible headset to work with non-Apple devices " so I think the Mic wont work.

I just wanted to give you an idea what to search for, I picked some random shops. Good luck finding one!
If you are looking for earphones for the iPod or iTouch I can highly recommend Shure SE310's or Ultimate Ears Super.fi 5 Pro's. Both are excellent earphones for the money.
I use a pair of Audio-Technica CKM-55. They were on promotion and not only was the price reduced, they also gave a smartphone adapter free of charge. (works on every phone except the old Sony Ericsson Xperias and Nokia, the new Sony Xperias work from what I've heard)
That's really weird . Long time ago I brought an urban ears headphone . Once I plug into my Mini Pro / Neo V , the system will prompt a message indicate this is not a official device and refuse to work . There are some additional converter bundle in the package but none of them work (except the audio only one) .
Recently I flashed a 3rd party ROM , and , the headphone now works flawlessly with Nokia converter ! How amazing !
I changed the bundled headphones 3 times before I got tired of going to the store I bought the phone. One of the plugs would always get a lower volume then the other. So I bought these Phillips she9005 in-ear headphones I while back. Quality is good, and they are built a way which make the suitable when you do sports. You can get them with or without mic. I have the version without.

Im using skull candy Ink'D red, awesome sound.

sound over bluetooth and through 3.5 jack what do u think

i don't know what it is but the soundquality over bluetooth is not up to what i expected nor when connected to 3.5mm jack
I don't know what it is or the reason why i am experiencing this but it is not good
Initially i thought yeah lets buy a sony phone as it has walkman app on it and i read about clear audio, and to be honest it is not good
so then i bought every hailed player and played with all their settings, and installed even audio mods like viper4android and the end result it sucks
also the same applies to sound while connecting the 3.5 mm jack
it came to the point i had to buy an external dac/amp media player so i can enjoy music again.
I'm not what you would call an audiophile but I can hear a significant difference between low vs high bitrate.
And I must ask, there isn't any chance that you're using the headphones that came with the phone?
I'm using a pair of in-ear skullcandy's that I've had for around three years with all the phones in my signature and I can say with certainty that the Ultra have had the best sound.
I am sorry that you're not happy with the sound and I can agree that Clear Audio sucks and I've had it off since day 1, but fiddling around with the settings & equalizer a bit have gotten me near perfect sound.
What kind of bad quality are we talking about like 32kbit sound or like buzzing, crackling sound?
Can't really complain at all on the sound quality in this phone. :highfive:
Surprise surprise, look who's here (again)...

I'm not what you would call an audiophile but I can hear a significant difference between low vs high bitrate.
And I must ask, there isn't any chance that you're using the headphones that came with the phone?
I'm using a pair of in-ear skullcandy's that I've had for around three years with all the phones in my signature and I can say with certainty that the Ultra have had the best sound.
I am sorry that you're not happy with the sound and I can agree that Clear Audio sucks and I've had it off since day 1, but fiddling around with the settings & equalizer a bit have gotten me near perfect sound.
What kind of bad quality are we talking about like 32kbit sound or like buzzing, crackling sound?
Can't really complain at all on the sound quality in this phone. :highfive:

now i am using hi end headphones Audio-Technica ATH-M50 also I have a high end car system. All i can say is i tried flac files and most other formats, it seems the mids are too much in the face and I can't describe it well as english is not my main language but it feel sharp and not comfortable to me. I tired so many convolvers in viper4android and equalisers and once i start messing there with equalizers all the sound gets messed. Its really difficult to say all I can say it feels not comfortable to the ear and not warm and lacks depth with any player.
Please don't misunderstand me but that is how I feel compared to my previous phones i owned.
I compared the same songs with my dac/amp player and on it the same songs sound as they should be.

You can not compare a battery powered smartphone with a powered amp player or a car audio system.
I play my music from .flac files in 24 bit and it sounds very good even with the standard in-ears from the box.

can i ask does z ultra play 24 bits, which player do u use, and what settings in means of sound should i use and which to avoid.
my dac/amp is battery powered is the x3 fiio, and its so much better than the sound i get from my phone.
Maybe i need more learning in how to get the best sound from my phone, but i tried so many things and don't know why the sound is not to my liking.

The Walkman settings & equalizer should suffice, have you tried those?
Here's my equalizer settings, might be incompatible with your taste of music tho.

What the hell have you done to it? It looks like it got a brown foggy thing on it.

hmmm both equalizer settings did not work for me, again LordManhattan don't take it personally, I promise I will be positive
THis has nothing to do with the device, I know maybe I should invest in buying an aptx bluetooth dongle, as I am sure its the dam bluettoth technology that sucks big time.
As far the 3.5mm jack well the sound I get is as good as you can get from any phone.
My goal was to get great quality of sound over bluetooth and since xperia z ultra supports aptx, then all i need is connect an aptx dongle to my stereo and compare sounds

The HTC apt-x dongle has surprisingly good reviews...
