[Q] What exactly is Beats? - HTC Amaze 4G

I have the Beats mod in my cellphone, the audio is greatly improved from my experience (I am using a Motorola s10-HD Stereo Headset).
And I've read it's a disguised EQ with preset settings that uses the Beats logo.
For me it definitely sounds better than the Dolby Mobile and SRS EQ variants.
I want to know what type of boosts it has so I could try to mimic some EQ settings in my iTunes and programs like that to get a similar audio quality.
Side Note: I wouldn't think my Bluetooth headset would deliver good sound, but it blows my iPhone headset out of the water.

Power amp was the very first app I bought, after doing some research for a decent music player, downloaded the apk unlocker, tried it out, decided to buy it after it had all the nice tweaks I like, haven't regretted it to date.

Does the "beats" equalizer work with Pandora?

I listen to Pandora a lot and I plan on getting this phone tomorrow. I just was wondering if the equalizer works with Pandora and how the equalizer works in general with the ear buds. Thanks.
The EQ works for the entire audio output of the phone through the headphone jack, so it would affect pandora as well I would assume.

I've read reviews that say the Beats Audio is only available in the HTC audio app.
I believe Beats is only for the HTC music app, other apps will not have beats audio enabled.
just use Equalizer
https://market.android.com/details?...sImNvbS5zbWFydGFuZHJvaWRhcHBzLmVxdWFsaXplciJd
It does not work in Pandora. Only in the stock apps like the HTC music player. Maybe it will be added to other apps in the future, but I doubt it since it's rather specialized to one manufacturer of phones right now. I have heard of very good EQ apps like those posted in this thread though. I really don't think the Beats EQ setting is so special that it can't be replicated pretty easily.

I never listen to music on my phone with headphones anyway, just through the aux on my car stereo. even then I set eq through the stereo anyway. headphone wise I just use them with my ipod touch when I'm at the gym.
Picked mine up Monday.
Beats only activates when playing through the HTC music app and Headphones (any) are present. Sound is more Robust with beats activated, and much louder.
I was surprised at how much louder the audio became. Many times I've longed for more head room on my iPod or phone. Please be warned at High Volumes beats can cause hearing loss. I hope Dr. Dre and HTC put a disclaimer out there somewhere.
Maybe they only tested the software with the iBeats included.
I will checkout Pandora, never used it on mobile since it was not supported well on WM6.5. I did checkout Slacker, and it was the worst sounding crap I've ever heard. Anything that resembles bass has severe clipping. Haven't tried the beats earphones yet as I have a nice pair of Ultimate Ears Superfi 5 Pros, as well as a pair of Klipsch image S4's.

Actually it does work. Beats Audio is activated as soon as you plug in headphones. What you cannot do is control the EQ Curve in Pandora so you receive the default "other" setting.
If you get a sense 4 Rom it works great

Using the sgs2 with a high-end headphone.

I've been considering for a while to buy a good headphones and I've decided to buy an audio technica ath-m50. The only thing that is bothering me is the yamaha audio chip. If I buy those headphones, I'll be using them most of the time on my sgs2.
Will the yamaha chip make the ath-m50 sound like a cheap low-end headphone?
If you happen to own an ath-m50 I wold really appreciate it if you could measure the hollow of the earth cups, diagonally and horizontally maybe. I've read that people with large ears may find them uncomfortable. The length of my ears are just below 7cm(I don't care, they are small, my mum told me that)
I've read supercurio's analysis of the audio chip but my question still remains.
Waiting eagerly for any response.

Well, if you really want to use a pair of high end headphones with the galaxy sII, get a portable amp like i did. I got a fiio e7, and it powers the ath-m50just fine. Listening to them straight out of the GSII audio jack wont let them utilise their full power. And dont get an iPod if you want really high quality audio. :-/ (Just a suggestion )

I've thought of this, the only problem is finding a store that sells the audio technica ath-m50. I live in London I'm sure there is plenty of stores.
However this would not be much help because I'm not very experienced with high end headphones, so probably almost anything will sound good to me.
If you want to listen to boom boom music with heavy bass then the SGS2 is inadequate .Expensive headphones are not going to do that much .
However as a user who does not have any boom boom music i find stock player headphones or slightly upmarket low end Sennheiser headphones fine .
Power Amp for me strangely lowers sound output level .
jje
I've the same experience as JJEgan with Power Amp. It seems to boost dynamic range at the sacrifice of overall volume.
For getting the best out of high-end headphones, you could always try Neutron Music Player from Android Market. It claims to use its own "32-bit audio music rendering core", although it's debatable whether this makes a difference, given that uncompressed CDs only have 16-bits per sample. People seem to like it, though.
Just recently I noticed something when listening to music using Poweramp with a headphone.
When you click on something such as the app drawer, the volume of the music that you are listening to increases for fraction of a second then it goes back to normal.
It can be very annoying when you are using the phone while listening.

Tried Neutron at the weekend, and these old ears couldn't see - OK, hear - what the fuss is about. No difference from Poweramp with a very unscientific ABX on my Sennheiser IE8s.
Definitely the worst UI I've seen on any music player though - so hideous that it should win awards.

Senn HD25-1s and Ety ER4-Ps both sound fine straight out of the headphone socket.
Using poweramp, without any eq or tone control tweaks, just ~30% crossfeed.
I read all the reports of crappy audio on the GS2, so when I got mine and tried it I was very pleasantly suprised.
Whereabouts in Poweramp settings is crossfeed...Didn't realise Poweramp supported it ?

Beast Audio

hey,
I don't know how many people cares but i think the sound from the Audio Beat is great. I like the way i can feel the base and sound a lot more clear.
Thumbs up. What ya think ?
i went thru a ton of songs turning beats audio on and then off to compare the sound effects. everything sounds better when beats audio is on. im very happy with it
I agree. I have some studios I'm listening to right now and I didn't notice it at first in the notifications bar it was off then switched it on. I'm also using Poweramp I'm sure that helps also. And oh wow I just realized while typing this the keyboard in the notification bar as well. I was wondering how to change boards without going all the way in the settings lol

Tried Beats Audio with my Bose QC15's, and it sounds great! I didn't think it would make much of a difference, but leaving Beats Audio on certainly does sound better.
So you do not have to have Beats branded headphones to turn on the Beats "equalizer"?

was flat before, now its got some audible highs and lows.
isnt beats just an eq adjustment anyways?
would be great if youre just using the builtin media player, but if you got poweramp, you can tweak just the same.
Beats audio is a preferance thing. I hate it because it doesn't make the sound pure. I just buy better headphones, but if you do buy per say over priced and badly equalized beats headphones, then you do need a dsp to make it sound good
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
Agreed. Also with most headphones and car speakers you need to minimize the dynamic range so it sounds better. Add a mobile headphone amp and you'll really hear a difference.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA
Just wanted to add a little more info to the thread. As already stated there is definitely a difference with beats on vs off. Not sure if HTC deliberately made the stock setting flat to emphasize beats although their stock eq was never really great before they added beats anyways. Now to the extra info since no one else posted. There is a built in equalizer that's for some reason not easily accessible unless you were looking for it. If you go to Settings->Sound->Sound Enhancer not only can you change the profile; There are 3, Beats urBeats, Beats Solo, and Other. You can also change the eq from beats to a couple other traditional settings. And no they don't have any custom settings they're all preset. Using a pair of V Moda M80's other was the best profile and depending on what you're listening to you can switch between the different eq settings. Everyone can find what sounds best for them and their setup.

I am evaluating. Even if I keep it, it remains to be seen if I will move away from the Nexus community. Open source spoils ya and I'm not too happy on how its locked down, even if it can be worked around.
Re: Beats
It takes upgraded speakers to withstand the amp, IME. I have a laptop with 6 speakers and a sub inside and the amp inside the laptop even pushes them to the edge sometimes. I've actually come close to blowing out some cheap skullcandy over the ear headphones
I have also found that some music sounds a lot better with Beats turned off (although the amp still has a part in that).
Sorry, but Beats Audio over the built in speaker is totally pointless. It will not make a blind bit of difference. I'd recommend one of these and at least then you wiill get decent sound if portability is a problem.

I used Klipsch Image one and Klipsch M40's when I had my One X and would always, I mean always, turn off the equalizer because it would just make the sound muddy and drown out the speakers with bass. From what I understand, this is really just a software equalizer for the headphones.
Still never understood how audio quality and Dr. Dre = Monster branded Beats by Dre.

Unlike the One X, this has upgraded hardware too.
From HTC's press release:
Authentic Sound
The DROID DNA by HTC has a unique, 2.55-volt, built-in headset amplifier and dedicated amp for the external rear-speaker to help boost the audio signal to deliver crystal clear sound with less distortion, even at maximum volume. The combination of amplified hardware and the rich, authentic, studio-quality sound of Beats Audio™ allows music to be heard the way the artist intended, and enhances the sound quality while playing games or watching video.

Not that it's necessarily a big deal. All speakers are connected to an amplifier. It could be a 1 watt amp or a 2,000 but all speakers need a decent amount of juice to make power them, relative to other components.

PowerAMP with the V20 AMAZING!!!!

Takes that Hi-Fi Audio and Quad DAC to another level... Check out PowerAMP if you have not already tune the Bass and such accordingly but damn 10% Audio for me and I hear everything like it at 35% AMAZING! Plugged into my 5 Speaker Audio System with my SubWoofer AMAZING! TRY THIS APP FOR THE ULTIMATE AUDIO EXPERIENCE ON YOUR V20!
Ive been using poweramp for 4 years. Its pretty much the ONLY good music player app. The only one that comes close to it is player pro. Def worth the 5$ for the pro version.
i bought poweramp like 4 years ago, but i never use it anymore bc of google music. maybe i should just put all my music on my card again and use it. i don't have any headphones that would trigger high impedence mode though
I used to use PowerAmp all the time on my other phones but stopped in the V20 because gapless playback doesn't work for me.

I used the power amp with my 598 se and holy hell its like night and day. If I push the bass to 75 you can feel the air pushing from the drivers. I run at 50 for bass and treble and the sound is awesome. Thanks for suggesting power amp with this phone.

Not a Problem just picked it up myself a few days ago after messing with it for a couple of mins I bought it and It has change my Audio Experience with this phone like you would not believe... Makes the V20 feel like a Dream!
my coworker got me this little 5 dollar Bluetooth speaker from 5 below for Xmas and using it with Poweramp, it surprisingly sounds good. EQ to add some bass and it really pumps. pretty cool for a little gift.

This may be a dumb question, but is there a way to use Poweramp's EQ and audio settings for Spotify? I love the sound of Poweramp but all my tunes are on spotify :/
