DETAILED LIST :
1.Beats Audio [Any ROM]
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1543351
This Link provides beats GUI that contains the beats headset icon,the beats boot animation,beats themed music played and beats wallpaper.
Works on all ROMs.
Sound Quality is a little enhanced with louder sound and increased bass.
Contains no additonal manual audio tweaks, sound quality is auto tweaked while flashing.
Works well with DSP Manager.
The beats audio aka beats aceport is included in this post and can be flashed separately.
2.SRS WOW [Only Andriod 4.0.1 or higher][My personal Recommendation]
Shared OP http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1616717
This Link gives almost real SRS Audio Effects as the OP Claims.
This is for those who find the beats audio a placebo.
Contains SRS WOW,SRS TrueBass,Android Equalizer,Android Normalizer,EQ Presets and a patched Music FX called SRS panel.
Follow the instructions in the OP to flash this.
For those who have problems flashing or too lazy to follow the steps, i have Maclaw's CM9 latest Nightly release with the SRS WOW effect.
Just Download the ROM, flash it and start using.

3.MegaBassBeats [ANY ROM]
Link to OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1620904
This Link gives you more louder speaker, more louder headphones, much more clearer bass and does not make crackling sound.
Flashable file attached.
4.ALSA [CM7.x based ROM`s]
Link to OP: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1653140
This link gives you the Advanced Linux Sound Architecturehttp://www.alsa-project.org/main/index.php/Main_Page
Remove DSP Manager app using Link2SD.
Flash the included beats_by_contradictor_V2.07_Alsa.zip.
Reboot and install the com.namakerorin.audiofxwidget.apk.
Start using.
Detailed instructions are on the OP.
NOTE/Personal Recommendation :
1. Flash any one of these.
Combining multiple audio enhancements may result in unstable behavior.
2. To test, use good quality headphones and try playing a FLAC file with more beats.
Always FLAC files are better in sound quality than Mp3's since they use lossless audio unlike Mp3's.
3. The SRS WOW on Maclaw's recent nightly release sounds just great to me, that is why I've included the ROM with SRS WOW for you.
I use Monster beats headphones and the SRS WOW just amuses me.
On higher end headphones[not earphones] like beats, try not to increase the bass at all.
Just keep the SRS WOW to Max and leave the bass to minimum.
Any other Requests please let me know
Thanks

FOLLOWING IN QUOTE IS LINE BY LINE FROM THE XDA ACID AUDIO PAGE
AC!D Audio provides you an overall better sound quality, more precisely:
● Bass are deeper, crispier and more powerfull, with nice effect without distortion and crackling
● treeble are less aggressive and more immersive (you'll enjoy whistle, whisper, instrument like piano, guitar,... will be much more natural and balanced)
● Voice is really more natural with better balenced EQ for a pure cristal sound for an awesome clarity
● Audio track quality will be enhanced and the improvement will be even noticed on your most crappy headset (even if good headphone are really suggested to enjoy all improvement of this MOD)
This Engine is A port of several Audio Technolgy, each of them are well know to enhance some specific audio part, our goal was to get them working simultaneously with a lot of personnal optimisation modification tweaks and unique features by our Team
Here is a short list of audio technology we ported and modded on this Engine:
● Sony Clearaudio Plus system (an amazing technolgy to enhance clarity of Bass and provide several effect like Clearphase, Clearbass, SRS surround,...)
● Beats Audio Engine (we ported latest beats engine from HTC one XL, and modded it a lot to be great handled by Clearaudio, it improve greatly Bass power and overal surround effect)
● Cyanogen DSP features (it helped a lot to handle better in app Equaliser)
● Dolby Digital Sound (overall better audio clarity with way more natural sound and some awesome features like SRS Wow and Dynamic Bass range)
● Sony Xloud (enhance noticably speaker quality in terms of clarity and volume, it help to ensure there is no distorion in sound even in headset, better balanced treeble and crystal voice)
● Eizo Rewire PRO series (an awesome Audio tool wich brings lots of effect and claim to offer a better balanced and natural Sound)
● AC!D Audio Parts (Huge optimisation in overall sound quality due to some optimisation, some tweaks, some audio rendering and resampling and even more... some Huge work have been done already)
Our Goal is to give an Engine able to increase Audio Quality of every Android Based Smartphone in every application you will be able to notice improvement

This Port is based off of the universal aroma installer on xda by team acid. In order to get it to work on our devices certain files had to be replaced in the installer or sound would stop working, also the script to add items to build.prop would not work/add the items

FAQ
Tested on Dirty Unicorn(Mazda)
Will not work on ANY sense rom(as far as i know)
May possibly work on a sense rom if you remove all HTC based EQ's/Audio services
Source of original files: HERE
MAKE SURE TO HAVE NO OTHER SOUND MODS INSTALLED ALREADY
THIS WILL NOT WORK ON SENSE ROMS, DONT TRY IT
Rls 1:
First release, buggy SRS and beats doesn't work
Eq presets are missing, true bass seems to effect nothing
Source: Here
Rls 2:
Added more equalizer settings/presets
Fixed awesome beats
True bass now decreases volume(on purpose?), so make your volume higher if using it
Eqs a bit buggy, toggle a few times if having issues\
RLS 3:
RECOMMENDED TO INSTALL OVER A CLEAN JB INSTALL
NOT COMPATIBLE WITH A DIRTY FLASH OVER RLS2
Updated to ac1d audio engine 5.0 with aroma

Add SoundEnhancements EQ(Still Doesnt work on JB)(Force Closes)
New source: HERE
While this release is an universal installer, only use it on the 3vo JB as this is all i am testing it with and can not help you on any other rom. The alternate options in the installer, xperia, walkman,samsung, etc have actually all been(i hope) modified to work with the 3vo, in case anyone accidentally selects them, im not recommending to select anything except for universal, but i did that just in case.
RLS 4
Fixed Audio during calls(no more robo sounding calls)
Fixed Stuff In General
Fixed options, select universal now, not samsung
Removed files in other options to reduce file size

Removed a bunch of files that really dont need to be included but were for some reason
Decided to keep musicfx.apk removed, i hate that thing

GSM USERS!!!!

RLS 14
Cherry Picks from:
Here
Removed Xperia only stuff from base(clearaudio+, etc)
Replaced with clearaudio from above url
Overhaul of aroma installer
FYI
the aroma installer now has 4 installation options at the beginning.
CDMA,GSM,Universal,Sense
The options, gsm,cdma, and universal were originally created because of the weird issues that the gsm evo 3d had that the 3d didnt, now theres no need but they're still options, no difference if you select any of the three. The sense option is just a first attempt at getting it to work on sense, but it probably wont work anyway.
RLS 15
New Base:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2248340
Pulled some files from v10 to try and get sound louder
Possibly made sound mono for gsm users? need testers on GSM

Awesome Selkie. Glad to see this finally posted here. Now everyone else can get this great sound on AOSP ROMs that I've been enjoying for the past few weeks.
I tested the 4A version of this mod with the walkman option on mazda's AOKP 3.4 and it seems to work fine so I posted in that thread that this mod is available for that ROM.

Can I flash over a previous mod or is clean install reccomended? Any way to remove\ uninstall mod?
Coming to you live from my Paranoid 3VO
Just found this and am a little lost. Will any of the options help for crappy Bluetooth audio? On ICS and before, DSP manger worked great universally, but now it only works in Apollo...

Here's how I'm doing it:
1. Flash ROM
2. Flash Kernel
3. Boot ROM
4. install Titanium Backup
5. Uninstall any audio mod (on AOKP removed Music FX, Awesome Beats, and Apollo.
6. Reboot to recovery and flash AC!D 5 v4A zip
7. Boot to ROM and Rock with my $*%( Out!
You can uninstall the apps, but I'm sure the libs and other files are still there. If you flash Awesome Beats v3 again it should work?
Would this mod work on our 3vo's

Clean install recommended if any audio mods were previously installed because most of them, including this one, do not have an uninstall option.
I have found that the AC!D mod and walkman player can coexist with Awesome beats on the two ROM's I've tested so if that's the only audio mod installed you should be OK.
If the ROM comes by default with other mods such as rockodev beats make sure to do the nandroid before installing these mods.

If you read near the end of the thread you will see that mod has never been tested with AOSP based ROM's, only Sense versions, and there were some issues with the led's on the capacitive buttons not working properly after it was installed.
You can certainly try that version of the walkman player, but make sure to post any problems you experience with it in that thread and I wouldn't recommend mixing that mod with this one.

I might have to give this a try tonight. Looks interesting
