Best sound mod for HiFi earbuds? - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys, I just bought Shure SE315, but music doesn't satisfy me. Mid and High tones are wonderfully clear, I can hear full range and really clean bass, but I ear em very low.
I love powerfully bass, but this audio software doesn't satisfy me.
Which mod do you advice me for my high fidelity earbuds?

Sony phones optimized for Sony ear/headphone in my experiences especially listening with stock music player, you got best experiences with only Sony that's all I can tell you. Not sure about if Viper will improve it but you need root to use Viper sound.

X10 sq

Are you guys satisfied with the sound quality of X10 through earphones.To me,it lacks bass.What is the best earphone for this phone.I am currently on ep630 from creative.
I agree, the sound quality is slightly tinny.
I use Klipsch S4.
I am using Skullcandys (the big, golden one) and they are awesome :3
Our speakers (both) are a shame for x10 ... no bass, low volume and so on...

Well for me X10 has great sound quality, and bass. I can even say there's too much bass (and I like bass ). Just get good music player like PowerAMP, set the right equalizer, and You can get very decent results
I'm using Phillips SHE-9550.
Im using cm 6.1.2 xtremes. It came with a DSPmanager. It boosts volume, you can add eq effects, compression, bass boost. The rom has a great music player too. With lock screen buttons ( play ,forward,back). Kinda off topic but i use my phone as a music player more then a phone.
Im a producer and its the closest i can get to my studio sound.
My headphones are sennheiser cx 200.(got them for free..long story)
Oh and next time you want new headphones, check out your local music equipment store. Look in the studio section. Better headphones then your big box store has. Better prices too. If you feel the need to buy beats by dre. Slap yourself and go buy studio monitors from the music store. Sealed monitoring headphones if you want bass that makes your eyes vibrate. Word.

[Q] Speaker Quality

I'm thinking of picking up an Xperia S but am wondering how the quality of the speaker is. Is it loud enough and is the actual sound quality decent.
I remember previously having the X10 and the sound output was very tinny.

I find it good enough to watch a movie or hear a few songs.
Sure, it still sounds like someone talking down into a trash can, but what can you expect from such a small speaker.
I use it alot at work if we lack a radio or just want some musik to tag along. It gets the job done, but you dont get the high end hifi experience from it.
It's quite loud, and the quality is surprisingly good for a phone.

well, the sony talks about 3D sounds in the handset but I didn't experience such a thing. But the sound quality is pretty decent when comparing to other devices. Obviously you can't get surround sound with this kindda speaker. But in contrast to other sets, XPS's sound quality is outstanding!!

[Q] Best earphones for the Wolfson chip?

Hi guys,
Any ideas what would be the best music player (MP3) app and earphones to go with the S3?
I'm currently on the stock earphones, and it sounds kind of flat, even with live 7.1 switched on.
Any good recommendations?
Sony EX510
Sound magic e10
monster turbine gold (these are quite expensive but they sound amazing and have a lifetime warranty)
http://www.head-fi.org/f/103/portable-headphones-earphones-and-in-ear-monitors
The best will cost you more than the phone itself. It all depends on your budget, but that link above will guide you. Probably the best forum on earphones out there.
Best app?
If you're an audiophile and want the best sound quality then it has to be neutron player but that has a horrible ui.
Poweramp would be my second choice where the ui is more friendly and mainstream and the sound quality is still noticeably better than the maintstream music apps out there.
P.S every single person in that earphone forum will slam you if you even so much as hint that beats headphones sound good.
Monster Beats Solo HD + Play Music (v4.3.605.392829 (jellyBean)
very nice
I prefer earphones such as the AKG K324(P)
to fat headphones.
However the best earphones only bring so much if the Samsung-software has limitations.
You should get the Siyahkernel which ports the old Voodoo from S1 to the S3 and bring an awesome quality boost. Enabling Dynamic Range and setting Bassboost to "small speaker" further increments the experience.

This thread here is a review of 200+ earphones grouped into different price brackets for easy viewing:
http://www.head-fi.org/t/478568/mul...00-monster-miles-davis-trumpet-added-06-19-12
Pick your price bracket and read through the reviews of the earphones that fall in that range. The people in that forum are way more experienced in this area than the majority of posters here who will end up recommending you the wrong thing.
It's like going on a car forum and then asking them whats the best rom to use on your phone. The majority of posters would be of no actual help to you and you're better off asking people who are more knowledgeable on the topic.
Switch off 7.1. Majority of music for consumers is stereo so just 2.0. 7.1 would modify it further from the way it was meant to be heard. Also if you haven't done so already make sure your mp3's have a bit rate of 320kbps or are in a lossless format.
1. Ultimate Ears Triple fi 10 Earphones
2. PowerAmp[1] Pro[2]
3. Your music in .flac
My combination exactly.
We have dif ears and taste in music... no one can tell you what's best except your ears... Source (S3) is already good sounding, what you need is a good medium (no lower than 256kbps mp3/aac or even loseless FLAC) and a good player app (Poweramp)... Headphones? its for you to decide... Music to my ears might be noise for you (example: most of people likes bass, a lot of lows... not for me, i hate artificial bass thats why i hate the Hiphop Genres and alike... im more of classical/jazz guy, so i have to choose what headphone that suits to my prefered genres) .. Hope this help

Best Headset for S2

Hello,
I am in need of best quality music headset for my S2. Few years ago I was using Nokia 5800 XpressMusic and it was awesome to listen songs. Observed that S2 doesn't have that much sound quality.
Please suggest a music headset with loud bass and music clarity.
Thanks

First of stick with stock headphones and install viper sound mod found on xda and then here the bass. Viper is sooo good for sound quality.
Maybe you should check in the Accessories section?

Best headset for Xperia Z2

Hey guys
Last week I had lost my xb90
So now I am looking around for a new headset i found these three
1- Sony MDR-NC31
2- Sony MDR-NC750
3- Sony Xba-a1ap
I had never try the Digital Noise Canceling headset so i am just confused about them..
Can anyone tell me that there is any difference in terms of sound quality between Sony NC31 and NC750..
Specially after updating to (MM 6.0) because Sony clams that NC750 will support Hi-Res audio..
Please reply
Thanks..

Thanks for the reply
Dose there is any difference in between NC 31 and NC750..

i've heard the nc31 doesn't have that good bass. which you probably love seeing you had xb90. it's why i bought another extra bass earphone instead of the noise cancelling ones. the reviews said NC works like magic but the bass is low

i'm using mdr-xb50ap. it's amazing. xtra bass but also a good amount of treble if and when needed. you can certainly get better ones with the budget of noise cancelling earphones. i wasn't sure about them so i settled for this and i'm quite happy. and sorry i took quite a while to respond.

I'll recommend MDR-XB70AP (INR 2500/-) ebay offer price.
@ present i'm using SONY XBA-A1AP (INR 6500/-) bought from ebay.
I got the SOUNDMAGIC E50 which are amazing looking and it`s an amazing feeling with that memory foam technology for a better feeling and more clearance and a better bass. a must have is the BASSULTIMATE v10 +beta33 SOUNDMOD for the Z2 MM! MUCH BETTER HEADPHONE EXPERIENCE WITHOUT ANY CRACKLING
I have used
SoundMagic ES18
Sennheiser cx180
and now Sony MDR-XB50AP.
I've used:
-Sennheiser Cx300-II Precision.
-Sony MDR NC31EM.
-Sennheiser MM30g.
-JBL T100A.
-HTC Black In-Ear.
-HTC Max 300.
-Sony MDR NC750.
-JBL T280A.
If you want good bass; I'd recommend Cx300-II;
if you want good mids; I'd recommend T280A;
if you want good upper tones; I'd recomment T280A;
However, if you want to listen your music the better, louder, richer, clearer way; then you need an HTC One M8 or another upper HTC device with the black In-Ear HTC earphones. Sony is really bad at audio quality.
As for the NC31EM and NC750M, the so called "noise cancelling" cancels the noice by making some "hiss" sound at a very low decibel so your ears think it doesn't hear anything from the outer world.
However, any of the JBL or Sennheiser in-ear phones have better noice cancelling than these headsets. Their microphones are on the ear sides, so the call quality is terrible.
As for the music, they don't give anything promising in their price-range, they're just "SONY" .
The mids are very loud, I mean VERY loud, compared to upper and lower tones, they just eat your ear on high volumes, even without modding volume levels.
So you'll be wasting your money if you buy one of these.

Wait, what? The Sony's are amazing at audio quality, I should know, I have an Xperia Z2. HTC's skewer the audio towards more bass, heck too much bass, they ruin the mids and highs completely. It was worse when they had the Beats Audio tech, but it was improved with the M9, I can only speak on audio of the M9 because that's what I had experience with.
I played 'With Love' album, some Above & Beyond, a couple of songs from Monstercat, and some Frank Ocean, and the HTC's boosted the bass way too much on all of them and squashed the Mids and Highs. The Xperia by comparison was more accurate, it did put less bass than the HTC, but didn't squash the highs and mids to get there. Granted, the HTC did sound louder and the Xperia was quieter in comparison, (used with Sol Republic Tracks V8, LG Tonepro HBS 760 and Samsung Level Active Bluetooth In-earphones. Heck, I even used a Logitech G230 Gaming Headset.) but in terms of how the songs project I'd prefer the Xperia because they sound more real and not artificial. Also, the Xperias have SIGNIFICANTLY more granular tweaking with the audio quality.
My friend swears by her NC31EM used with Xperia Z3 Compact, they do block out almost all noise (except when screaming directly next to her) and the sound is well balanced and there's a good kick of bass...
I'm using xiaomi hybrid, good sound quality per price but when I turn on fm radio all I hear is headset's microphone sound... ?

I liked Senheiser CX275s until I get the following from TIZUM. This one outperformed the all earphones i used. Excellent bass and clarity. I found it awesome and got for 799INR only
