Quit spilling your noob sauce all over the place. They committed suicide the second you made them penetrate the iphone. Thats your problem.
Edit: sorry for being an asshole. Just came to mind and thought it was funny I have no clue why. Try a different rom maybe

i will check again and see if there is an option. but the headphone sounded muffled

ALWAYS use a Tom with beats. NEVER use outside apps or other similar methods

Funny I actually was in a store testing some beats solo hd and they sound crappy, then moved on to the ludacris headphones, worse...then realised the song I downloaded was ****. Haha.
Used an old ice ice baby that was moved from disc to my phone and the beats one's sounded solid on my phone. Who cares if they are overhyped...no difference than Bose audio lol. They still get the job done and if you are a true audiophile then of course you won't buy beats, just like you won't buy Bose haha.
I remember back when cerwin vega was a speaker you could buy for your home, they didn't sound the Best, but you could play them all day long, loud, with no issues.
My Rezound with nils p sense 4 Rom sounds great on headphones. I don't have the beats headphones that came,with my Rezound but my wife's nexus ear buds sound good. Clean and plenty of volume.

It's just an EQ. Better to leave it flat unless your environment demands it.

Duh! They're BEATS! The moment you bought them you were stereotyped. Of course they sound bad. Sennheiser HD 800's all the way.

Sennheiser HD 800' are like $1500 !

Why's funny is I have a $1000 receiver and $1000 per pair towers...they are considered cheap by audiophiles and wealthy people. I'm sure headphones are in the same realm lol

I was just kidding. But if you're complaining about price you should be getting the overpriced plastic crap they call beats. For the sound quality you get out of those, they should be $40.

IPhone headphones

Do iPhone headphones work with our device?
follow me on twitter @Hometowns_Hero
If they have a 3.5mm plug then for sure. Now if they have any kind of controls on them then I don't know if that would work. But should be fine for just audio.
Just bought them... lol I hope they work they weren't cheap

beats by Dre? You're overpaying a lot more for THOSE than for iPhone headphones. All the Dre IEMs are is bass, bass, and more bass. Clarity be damned, we need more bass!
You can get better, far more accurate IEMs (in-ear monitors, or in-ear buds) for under $20. Try some MEElectronics m9s maybe?
Don't get me wrong. He IS paying too much for what the iPhone buds offer, but the Dre's are even worse when it comes to price/performance. Might as well get BOSE

Beats Audio, what is it exactly?

I've just plugged in my headphones (which are pretty good) in my amaze for the first time since having Beats Audio (on NRG Rom today) and the difference I can hear is just some kind of melted sound that looks like some equalizing with a lot of bass as I expected since Beats headphones have nothing but bass to what I read, and a slight reverb effect which is really annoying to me since I am a fan of pure sound. Is there anything else in this mod that makes it interesting?
I just keep it disabled and I enjoy my Amaze more each day with all the ROMs getting better!
Thanks!
Sent from my HTC_Amaze
To enjoy TRUE Beats audio, you have to buy Beats headphones. But to me it doesn't make a difference
I consider it a gimmick, I thought it was a special sound chip or something, but it turns out its just a couple of files in the os. And beats headphones aren't that good anyway
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Xparent Green Tapatalk 2
nope, there's nothing all that special about it, just marketing. DSP does way more for sound then beats, hell, even the eq that comes with cloudskipper has better sound then what beats puts out.
Also, I'm not a fan of things like since its a beats phone, you need the beats headphones. That sounds alot like apple, and I hate apple for that!
PowerAmp shuts everything else down.
Beats audio on a phone is a glorified bass boost with a sexy logo.
But don't sit here and act like beats headphones are no good. They're not the best, but they dont cost as much as the best either. Kevin Durant isnt the best either... does that mean he's not very good?

I have to disagree a little on the last point, go a bit on audio forums and you will see quickly enough that the best point of the Beats headphones is their look. I tried the little ones, the cheapest model and the only thing it had better than the 5$ earbuds I can find at the Walmart is a big bunch of bass. As much distortion and sound denaturation (not sure this last is an english word...). Sure the bigger models are better but out of bass power (not bass quality) for the quality/price Beats by Dre are far to be a great deal, for what my ears told me and what I read.

What kind of music do you listen to? For my part I listen mostly to classical and progressive Rock so sound clarity and details is a very important point, which I think Beats are not better at than my Audio-Technica ATH M50 for about twice the price on eBay.

Cool, then if you got good ears the good beats might be better than I thought. Will read again about them some day. When I feel like changing my headset.
If I have the chance to try a good pair of Beats I will come back here to go further if anyone is interested. Audio is often a thing in which developers are interested. Probably because it is complicated at the first look

Sorry man Beats are definitely not worth $300.
$125-$150? Maybe. Too bad the build quality is awful for a $300 product and the sound really isn't that good.
Not to mention when your battery dies you can't use the headphones at all..

Jaybird freedoms....i jog and they dont even feel like they are on. Plus they are loud and clear. I have a evo lte i use for an mp3 player and surprisingly the beats audio in the evo makes a noticable difference then when using them in my s3. I dont know why since there wireless but definitely notice a difference and i have a pair of beats earbuds i can say the jaybirds sound just as good

It's as if no one bothers reading the OP's post. He doesn't want the jaybirds.
To OP, I've heard great things about the Motorola, but honestly I would recommend going wired. No need to worry about BT. Try a tunebelt armband that has a Velcro strap for the dangling wire of the earphones. If you must have wireless, try the moto.

I actually DON'T recommend the Motos over the JayBirds... I have both brands, including both S9 and S10s, and still believe the JayBirds are better in sound quality and comfort. There really is nothing better right now, I don't think...
That's why people keep ignoring the damn first post and saying go with JayBirds, lol.
i see that jaybird came out with the new JF4 headphones which is 40% smaller then the freedoms but it has less battery time. They also didnt fix the reception issues.. oh well, ill wait and see for now guys.
I have the Moto S10-HD they are great. They seem to sit a little low on my head but otherwise very comfortable and have stood up to running in extremely humid weather. Even withstood a small rainstorm that popped up during a run.

iBeats worth it?

Hey guys
I am getting a deal on rezound. The one with iBeats included is like $30-$35 more than the one without.
I am not able to decide if I should go with the one with the iBeats or the one without. Any idea?
With ibeats definitely, best headphones I've ever had
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Personal taste I guess. I think they sound like absolute trash.
Edit: I guess I should clarify. They are bass heavy headphones, but they aren't your typical bass-heavies. They boost mainly mid bass (as opposed to low bass), and they actually suppress mids and some of the highs. They're very boomy, but it sounds like a muddy mess to my ears. There's no definition in the mids whatsoever, and the highs get lost in the mix.
I can kinda agree with strike. But with the right eq app ( power amp is what I use) it can be cleaned up nicely. And much better sound than your average cheap ear buds.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using xda premium
Yea, but for $40, I'd rather buy a set of mid-range Sennheiser CX 300s or Kilpsch Image S3s. For the $100 the iBeats would normally set you back, I'd get a set of Shure SE215s.

if you are not getting them for free i wouldn't pay more for them. The build quality is trash im on my 3rd pair from HTC.
as shrike said you can get a better pair for the same price. Not worth paying more for something that was just added as a gimmick IMO
i to use poweramp and its the only way to make them sound less bassie.
It has taken me 7 months with this phone to slowly perfect the EQ in power amp to get the maximum audio quality from the iBeats.

Well, for me, my desktop over the ear headphone setup is too big to go portable, so I got IEMs instead. As long as you don't crank the volume up, i don't think they will do much damage. But back on topic, OP, if you get the headphones you linked, you might experience some clipping and distortion at lower volumes, if this happens, I recommend a portable amp, like the Fiio E11 or something along those lines. It will boost the volume, and make the headphones sound a lot better overall. :good:

Going to agree. I have a pair of beats solos and they don't even compare to my audio technica m50's even though there's a 70 dollar price difference. Beats being the $200 set.
I have the Motorola SD-10HD bluetooth headphones and they are red and black. They actually work very well and have controls on them so you can adjust volume and skip tracks.

I'd have to agree also. I bought that wireless beats by dre and used them for a week. They were good but after doing some more research I returned the beats (way over priced) and got the over the ear bluedio wireless headphones for $146. Much happier with them especially at half the price.
