I recently bought a stereo headset, Plantronics 590A, and I wonder what the rest of you think of the sound quality in your headsets.
I sometimes experience a low hiss while playing music with a lot of high pitches, like a lot of cymbals, crashes and high hats etc ( = Metal! )
Music with mostly base sounds just fine.
I solved this to some degree by adjusting the high pitches in the equalizer.
What quality sound do you have using A2DP?
I experience the hissing using both WMP and Pocket Player 2.72. Is there some player that is better or worse for use with A2DP?
Noticed that the hissing is significantly lower if the volume on the pda is set as low as possible and the volume on the headset is turned up than set the other way around.
Also, shameless bump...
Yea I am trying my friends motorola ht820 and I notice the same thing you said. It is still there even at setting the hardware volume low, any way we can reduce it more? It seems the treble is high

I use GSPlayer and TCPMP, with itech R35
I don't notice such problem
I know this is common pocket/WM problem with some devices
I'm getting this problem also.
I raised a thread here http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=59333 to try and get my ideas out on the subject but I seem to have gotten to cold shoulder from the forum.
I've been doing a lot of my own testing but I cant decide if its 1)My phone (o2 xDA MiniS / Wizard / QTec 9100), 2)my headset (Motorola HT820) or 3)something to do with the bluetooth bandwidth/quality (Because when I use the external audio jack the sound is perfect).
Does anyone have an idea as to what the problem is?
Thanks all.

Experiencing ths same problem with Plantronics Pulsar 590A and S200 with AKU 3.2
I would say it could be due to bleutooth A2DP compression like it sounds like a bad/low bandwidth encoded file...
I'll test with an acer n311 if it is a2dp compatible ?!
could like to test with, for example, a SE K800i to see if it isn't the MS bluetooth stack...
Humm... I'll test with the 590A supplied bt audio adapter too tonight. If the sound's good, then we'll have to wait for some fixe on WM2005 :'(
tested with the Plantronics bt receiver, the sound quality is just vrey good.
So the problem is on the pda side..
Need to test with an other pda...
Yea, I am really disappointed with the sound quality of my Motorola HT820 that I got on ebay. Where did you guys purchase your headsets? I heard there were some fake ones on ebay, I don't know how they can forge it but it is a possibility.
Could anyone with a Streak dock comment on the difference in sound quality between the headphone jack and the dock's line-out please ? One report says that the line-out has higher volume then the jack, which sounds strange to me since I thought a line-out shouldn't be amplified.
I'd like to know the difference in base noise level, sound level and audio quality. This would be usefull to all those who would like to hack their PDMI cable to extract a better sound source from it.
Also, if you can, please the type of headphones you used to make the comparaison.
Thanks in advance
So I was looking at different headphones and they range from 32ohm all the way upto 48ohm, then there are headphones with 100mW etc. I don't know much about these values in terms of headphones and how good a smartphone can support, in terms of current/impedence.
Any ideas how this actually works? Does the sound get lost if the phone doesn't support higher amounts of current.
How can I test the audio performance of smartphones? I want to test the speaker (or speakers), microphone, headphone jack, and Bluetooth audio performance? Also I would like to not have to spend a ton of money. Any help?
hello guys so i'm facing a little issue just bought new over ear headphones for use with my xiaomi mi 8 but the volume does not seem to get loud enough so my phone can drive these headphone properly due to not enough power being supplied to HS , so i was wondering if there is some kind of mod to increase output though type c port and i don't mean EQ like v4a and else
Use a pair of high-quality earbuds and /or a high-quality headphone to improve your Android device’s sound quality and volume.
