You can pick up some logitech Pure-Fi mobiles from ebay they are extremely loud and have bluetooth and aux connectivity
Best on market at low price: X-Mini
http://www.amazon.com/X-Mini-Capsul...2?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1311115794&sr=1-2
Got them few months ago and can´t be happier Just don't expect much bass from them, remember they're portable and cheap!!
The X-mini line also has a single speaker solution - even lower cost. Amazon carries these worldwide, or if you are in Europe you can also try pixmania.
I personally recommend this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B001UEBN42/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1311406581&sr=8-1. I own one and have a second on order. The beauty about these little beasties is the have a headphone jack and socket, meaning in theory you could plug an infinite number of these speakers together for more sound. Each has their own battery and usb charger. I paid £12 or something for mine and couldn't be happier.

Fantastic, portable and cheap.
Bought one and when I heard it bought 2 more (One more for me and one for a friend)
Another vote for the X-Mini from me.
Awesome volume and sound from such a small device. Plus you can daisy chain them together!

I own 3 and use them daisy chained. Infact its surprisingly loud. Il tell you a good tip for them, say your in your bath room lay the speakers across the side of the bath and the bath will actually act as a big bass bin. I works really well and it makes quite a big effect on the sound. Perfect for shaving or wash time!

Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone had bought any sony ericcson bluetooth stereo headphones recently, which were they and are they good?
Cheers Ben.
Bought some knock off Nokia BH-503 for less than $20 on ebay. THey work. A little static but all the bottons work well. Pretty comfortable. But I think it makes me look fat.
Plently of cheap ones you can try on ebay.
I've got a pair of Sony DR-BT21G stereo bluetooth headphones and I'm really impressed by them.
I've previously used Nokia and Samsung bt headphones.
Pros:
- Best sound I've heard
- Comfortable
- Thin, so they don't stick out much
- They look like good quality headphones
- Reliable, they reconnect quickly and consistently
- Battery life is incredible. I think last time I charged them was in 2010.
Cons:
- Will cut out sometimes if a bag or something is put in between your phone and headphones. Not as bad as some (Samsung!). Fine if your phone is in your pocket.
- The foam is very thin and over time mine fell off in my bag, so now there's no foam.
- Bass is clean and clear but not rich and full like normal headphones
- Some slight static in quiet songs at higher volumes
Sony Ericsson HBH IS800 are a very good option. Although you don't get volume controls with then but they are light weight and also the smallest one available.

I'm using Jabra BT 620s since I had my SE k550i
Worked awsome till I changed my phone to X10i.
Headset never worked well either on Eclair nor Froyo.
Keeps lagging the music even while phone is fully charged in my pocket, not always connects with BT and even if so, I can hear dead air only. No firmware updates released.
Not recommending
MW600 works really well with 1.6, 2.1 and 2.2
Having switched from the iphone, one of the things I miss on the Note is the ability to control pause, skip and volume using a three-button remote.
Fortunately, I found a DIY on instructables which solves this problem. Today I was able to get it working and verified that it works on the Note (i717). I also tested on a friend's skyrocket, so I believe most Samsung devices will work.
Here's how to do it:
1. Get the iLuv remote from Amazon. It's about $5
2. open the middle pod of the remote using a knife or razorblade. I just used one of my kitchen knives (carefully).
3. solder on a 600 ohm and 220 ohm 0604 resistor as shown in the picture. make sure the orientation is right (use the white printing on the circuit board as a reference). It will not work if backwards.
4. test to verify it works. On the note, the + and - buttons control the volume. The middle button will play/pause.
5. snap the plastic case back on. I held it together with some heat shrink tubing.

$5 is for the remote and works with ANY headphones.
The included headphones are poor sound quality IMHO (I tried the headphones that came with my friend's skyrocket).

I agree, I got the Samsung freebie headphones with both my captivate and infuse, and I could care less that ATT chose to not include them with the note. If somebody can buy a brand new galaxy note but not a 20 dollar pair of ear buds that sound halfway decent, something is wrong in this world. Haha.

Ifrogz vertex's with fiio e5 headphone amp. If you like bass can't beat the combo like having 2 12" woffers on the sides of your head you can feel them vibrating. The head phones are $40 at Wal-Mart Probly find them cheaper online & $20 for fiio e5 amp on amazon. I'vs tried Probly 10 different kinds of head phones from $20-almost $200. Ifrogz vertex best sound/bass available IMO very clean lows and nice highs for the bass you get. Not as crystal clear as some ear buds highs but u get no bass. & the amp is a must it's a cell phone it needs some help let's be honest it just isn't putting out any power. Get a head phone amp you'll never go back. Feed those 40mm drivers, running just off the phone anything but ear buds are starving.

Hello.
Does the speaker so bad and weak like they say in all reviews?
Can someone maybe could upload a youtube video of the speaker playing some music?
Thank you!
Google 'mobilegeeks YouTube'.
Nicole and Sacha have done some great comparison videos
It is by far the weakest aspect of the phone.
Let's just say if you had this phone in your pocket and you werent in a very quite place, you will NOT hear it ring.
I was at a mall with average number of crowd, nothing too loud, typical mall noise and I completely missed the ring and only noticed via the vibration.
Bluetooth earphone is a must or like me, don't use it as your daily driver phone and more of a tablet/media consumption device.
Speaker low? I own this phone and speakers are louder than my HTC Sensation XE, Nexus 7 and Asus transformer prime. Was really surprise by it at first use as people said it was poor. Or maybe it is poor for people who like to hear music in public place?

According to GSM Arena's test, the Ultra's speaker can be compared to the Lumia 920 and iPhone 5's speaker. Check under "Ringing phone, dB".

Wondering about the same thing - the speaker volume is noticeably lower than what I was used to on my previous Note 2. Hope i a.m not stuck with a defective unit! I too have missed a few calls simply because i could not hear the ring.
Btw, the Note 2 had custom ROMs which allowed you to boost the speaker volume (medium boost or high). Would be great if we could install a patch that did the same on the XZU
This phone only has one mono speaker and as it's waterproof, it's behind a skin to keep the water out, so yes, it is lower than stuff like the note 2. Every single review I read and saw warned of this.

Yeah, it's technically a loud speaker. But it's just poorly placed, recessed, and water proofed. For hearing the ring tone, it's fine. But listening to music or playing videos, it's definitely one of the big negatives for me.
In fact, if I don't place my hand around the speaker to reflect sound, it would almost be unusable in certain situations. Which is unfortunate given its large video friendly screen.
Bottom line, either don't have high expectations for the speaker and/or go the external speaker route.

Okay,
Much has been made about the sound quality or lack of quality speaker(s) on this device. For the folks who are running high end iems, headphones, DIY joints, Koss titanium modded drivers, Full size cans etc...
What is your personal setup for audio listening pleasure??
Also don't forget to include amps etc..

As a portable on the go setup??
Some folks are over the secondary hifi setup that is sometimes carried around.
If you can keep it to a source device, amp and iems or headphones. That's pretty much carry anywhere without it being obtrusive.
I use JVC HA-FXC80 with comply foam tips. They are cheapish but give off an amazing sound. For the price nothing can touch them. Same goes for my pc headphones HA-RX700. Inner earphones last me a year or so because I run/bike with them so I don't bother getting an over the top pair that I know aren't going to last anyways.

Price only matters when dealing with the elitist of the hobbyist, if the headphones bang then they bang... I had a pair of Koss clip on's and with the mod those things were really nice. The cost was less than $10, but they out performed on a regular basis headphones costing $50-70 easily.
Once you try custom molded iems you will never go back to regular in ear phones. I have a pair of JH16's and can't say enough about the quality or response or sound etc.... Are they expensive? Yup, are they worth it? Yup... But I also have cheapies that I love as well... Just depends on my mood... And what I am listening to...
Beats Mixr
I initially tried the original earphones guess what....threw it away. No choice but to use my Beats Mixr and so far no complaints..:angel:

My chain looks like this:
Note 3 loaded with FLAC --> HeadAmp Pico USB DAC/amp via USB OTG --> headphones. Mostly use my T5p with it, sometimes my UE900, sometimes my LCD-2 when the mood takes me and I'm not near my desktop setup.
Well I use beat mixer..and they are working quite well...till now no problem with them...but the original Note 3 headsets sucks not far true to the expectations....
