Hi,
any audiophile Guru out there to suggest for a great headset - best audio quality possible - allowing for FM radio and music control to keep the touch HD in the case?
I am asking this since i realized that my JABRA BT620s does work reasonably well, WITHOUT wires being A2DP, but the price to pay in quality and radio is simply too big....

Well, if you are after sound quarlity, hehe, go for Ultimate Ear 10 pro.
some shure or sennheiser headphones.. they are the best. I have one of both.. different type of headphones..
shure is in-ear, and sennheiser are typical headset.
cheers.
I just bought the Jabra BT530, read great reviews of it.
But overall, they say if u want the BEST Audio Quality, then u should buy this :
Aliph Jawbone 2
try googling for a review on that, and u will get an endless list of them!
hope this helps!
Hi to all,
after some web googling, i decided to make a good but reasonable step and purchased the Shure Se110 (black like The Stone).
Not only the quality is stellar with respect to the standard headset, but it is pretty easy to wear and in particular the FM radio works very well!
The sound is pretty loud and incredibly balanced. they don't crackle even with the highest dynamic ranges...
It has only one defect, in some respect: you don't hear anything anymore, so make a good life insurance when you walk your dog...
When at home I use my Technics RP-F290 and while mobile I use my Sennheiser CX300.
I use these [BOSE] - found them to be excellent
http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/home-en...o-headphones/bose-on-ear-headphones/index.jsp
I see there is now a version designed for use with mobile phones - has a mike and some controls built into the lead
These will blow your head off
If you are an audiophile and want the best sound and build quality in the world regardless of the price :
WESTONE 3
Shure SE530
Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10
DENON AH-D5000
AKG K 701
Grado RS-2
Sennheiser HD 650
Denon AH-D2000
Ultrasone HFI-2200
Monster Beats by Dr. Dre
Sennheiser IE 6
Bose® Mobile On-Ear Headset
Bang & Olufsen Earset 2
I VOTE FOR WESTONE 3
I've got Shure E2c for my "in move" devices. They sound quite good and didn't cost a fortune

I'm looking for a quality in-ear headset in the pricerange(with the same audio quality of course) of the Sennheiser IE6, but with a small microphone in it, like the original HTC-headset.
Is something like that in the market that is compatible with the HD? (so just for the 3.5mm output, no bluetooth)

Shure SE530
Ultimate Ears Triple.fi 10
Sennheiser CX 380 Sport II
Sennheiser IE 6
Thanks for the reply's!
@lipa47: The Shure's look great! Does anyone know how the SE210MPA sounds compared to the Sennheiser IE6? And how is the cable quality in therms of durability? I see that the Sennheiser uses kevlar cable's.
@Nobelove: Sorry but i don't see any microphone's in those models?
Hey, how are you?
My advice to you would be to think about the HTC RC W100 wired remote control. You simply plug it into your device and its 3.5mm stereo socket means you can plug in any headphones you like. The sound quality from the mike is superb. It allows to control the volume, Forward/rewind, answer/end calls etc...
With regard to headphones, I use x3 types. I have a set of the latest Bang & Olufsen ear set phones which clip over your ear and are comfortable. I use them while cycling/jogging in London – I can answer the phone while on the move + can still hear ambient traffic noise even when listening to music/radio on a reasonable volume...
For flying I use the very excellent noise cancelling Sennheiser pxc350's - I thought the 450's were a little too flashy and not worth the extra cash for the button to talk to the air hostess...
I also have a set of the much smaller noise cancelling Sennheiser pxc250's which are very good - the noise cancelling works fine but not nearly as good as the 350's.
I have done a lot of research into this subject and would say spend money on your headphones. Also, no matter how clean you keep your ears, putting the in-ear phones in place after using them the previous day is not always the most pleasant experience.
I hope this helps.
Rgs,
J

here you go
Sennheiser MM 50 iP
and for the rest you can use this adapter or use HTC RC W100 as justin advised.
and to answer your Q. Sennheiser IE6 is much better in sound quality
Thanks for the great reply's! I love this forum
In the last few hours I've read a lot of mini-reviews on the Shure's; half of them were negative in therms of durability and sound-quality(compared to other high-end in-ears). So the Shure's are off my list.
The HTC RC E100+Sennheiser IE6 looks like a great combi if the cable wasn't that long. The cable of the IE6 is 1.2 meter... So I think that I'll order the IE6 without the microphone, too bad that there isn't a good high end solution for this subject from Sennheiser... The Sennheiser MM50 are too low-end for me.
btw. The HTC RC W100 has been replaced by the RC E100. From what I can see is the only difference that the E100 got an headphone included.
Edit: I've just found the Etymotic Research HF2: http://www.etymotic.com/ephp/hf2.aspx
Does anyone have experience with this brand? It's completely new to me, but it looks like an great option.
If you are an audiophile and a first classer who cannot accept or go for any less than spectacular audio and Brilliant sound stage then stick with this list

I can say that I went through Sennheiser: mx400, cx300, px200, px100, and I finally sticked with Shure E2c. I use Sennheiser HD580 in home and I can say that in terms of durability and quality (cable etc.) those E2c are pretty good. Well maybe newer models are not that good By the way output in HD is not that good, there is lot of hiss.
Have any one tried the Sleek Audio SA6 In-Ear Earphones ???
How do they compare to WESTONE 3 and Shure SE530 ???
I do own the Plantronics Voyager 856, excelent bass!
You can use the BT headset mono or stereo by clipping of one earpiece.
Which are the best earphones with built-in microphone for the blackstone?? Those who come with the Blackstone aren't that good...
sorry wrong forum please move this into accessories
Done.
I recommend the Moto s9s (bluetooth); worth every penny i paid for them.
Yes, Motorola SD9-HD has my vote. Comfort, sound volume are first rate. Battery life and Bluetooth range are also excellent. I was amazed at how close the sound comes to my $500 Shure SE530's (well, almost, since the Shure's are in a league of their own!). The bass response was a wonderful surprise. I was also very surprised by how nice Window Media Player on the Touch HD sounded and how well A2DP works between the two. A+ rating from me!
thanks for the answers but I was referring to regular wired-earphones...any suggestions about them?

I think the best solution is to go to your local electronics store and buy a headset adapter w/built-in mic for the iphone, they work on the HD and allow you to answer calls. You can plug in any headphones that you like and use them in your laptop or music player as well.

Those sure look nice!
I'm no sound guru but do know that even tho the frequency range is wider than the skullcandy, that will only be noticeable with certain types of music. And the impedance will definitely play a part as well. Not sure whether the difference in the size of the speaker itself will be all that noticeable on such minute vessels but it might. If you really want to know you could post on an audio forum I suppose. I suspect the largest difference noticeable would be the in-\out ear types and everything else would be minor in comparison.

Will this adaptor work for voice dial? I use Microsoft voice control so need voice dial. I tried a pair of Ultimate Ears with mike for the iPhone but you could not use voice dial...
I am looking at standard headphones if I can get an adaptor with mike that works. I have got it down to 4 in the price range I can afford.

Any comments on these please........
Hi kjt57,
I'm in the same boat... does your MSVC work with the standard HTC headset? I had to tweak the registry to make it work. Now it needs a long press on the HTC headsetbutton to kick in. I thought that it should work with every 3,5mm headset. Can you please crosscheck with the original HTC?
I'd like to use the Ultimate Ears Metro.fi 200v or the Shure SE210 with MPA-3C adapter, but MSVC is a must. I couldn't find a local dealer who has this earphones for testing.
Cheers

what about a hang up and play/pause/fwd buttons anything like that on it.. or is it just for music only and not talking?
I believe its just has a volume control on the headphone wire.
i have a Set at home Sennheiser cant remember the model but i dont like it.. i i want something with play/pause/fwd/mute buttons and get good bass and treble from it.. dont know which to get
I wanted a set of ultimate ears but I don't believe they make any models that have the mute or capability to answer the phone, like the HTC and some other models designed for phones....anybody have any good suggestions?
I would want some bass out of any pair I own...
jus orderd my Sennheiser CX500 headphones hope theyr better then ipod headphones that would be awsome!!!

The headphones from my girlfriends' Nokia N76 don't fit. Although they're 3.5mm, they're too shallow to fit in the jack.
I don't like In-Ear anymore, so I use the Sennheiser HD 25-II. They are simply amazing!!! I can recommend them to anyone!
I have some Sennheiser CX400 MkII's and they're fricking awesome with the HD. You'll need to make yourself a custom setting in Audioboost, but play around and you'll find your sound.
Anyone using after-market earbuds with their Note 3? Preferably one with volume control. I am looking for one to replace the stock Samsung earbuds. So far I have researched the:
1. Klipsch S4A ii (but I've heard the volume controls don't work on our Note 3)
2. a-Jays Five (not easy to find)
I'm using the old Apple ones, as I can't have those torturous in-ear plugs in for more than 10 seconds without developing a massive migraine. (an issue most women suffer from, but they only sell those torture devices these days.. Or earbuds the size of a fist.)
The mic and clicker work, the volume controls don't.

They go deep into your ear canal so you get great noise isolation. They are not for everyone though as some of the tips are uncomfortable. I got the custom ear molds done so now I have a perfect comfy fit though. They arenot bass heavy because they are suppose to output a flat sound without modifying the signal. That being said if you get Viper4Android you can pretty much make it sound however you like including head thumping bass Ala beats.
I've been very impressed with SoundMAGIC E10 Earphones. Sounds soooo much better than the stock headphones and at a reasonable price.

I had a pair of the Klipsch's, you're right the vol controls don't, it seems they only work on the iPhones. The Sound is AMAZING, but for me, I can't keep them in, they don't fit right and when they become loose or loose the seal, the sound quality goes WAY down. I don't have issues with most other bud styles though
Looking for suggestions of ear plugs / headphone to use with our S7's ? Microphone is not needed but just a way to silently listen to a program without speakers
DAC supported type C Headphone / 3.5 mm Dongle ? Or wireless via Bluetooth ?
Are all these dongle adapters compatible, like this one :

I couldn't say, that's the best one's for the tablet, but there are not bad....I can only make a compare with Dr Beat. On the tablet the ear buds live are better. Use the ear buds on a sony mobile, I received broken connection. Here the Dr.Beast are better. From sound the ear buds are better..but the Dr.Beast are louder without jitter, clipping ....
I've had these for a year and a half now and I love them. I use them with my phone and my Tab S7+.

If using bt go with the Buds+ or higher to take advantage of the SCC codec.
Or use a headset that supports LDAC.
For music listening though I heavily custom alter their sound profile with Poweramp's graphic equalizer.
