[Q] GPE Beats audio on CM10 - HTC Droid DNA

So evidently I'm out of the loop. I didn't know until a few minutes ago that the Google Play Edition HTC One had intergrated Beats Audio. But when I heard this, I got an idea.
Could we port the Beats drivers to CM10.1/10.2 and all the ROMs based on it (Rootbox, Carbon, ect)? Wouldn't it, in theory, be possible since the GPE One firmware is essentially AOSP and therefore with the same structure and internal-working as AOSP? I understand that people have a love/hate relationship with Beats, but I personally (and I'm sure many others) like the sound of it, and that sound on an AOSP/CM10.2 based ROM would be awesome.
Thanks in advance for your responcess, input, and opinions.

Yeah it could work. Its just a global audio out enhancement that drives all levels a bit higher. Doubtful though that it will get added to an AOSP ROM besides the GPE port. Its just speculation based on how new features are added.

The GPE rom isn't just straight up AOSP, but a combination of sense framework and AOSP android. This is the reason that Beats works just like on a Sense 4.1 rom. I'm not sure if it could ever be ported to CM to be honest. It may rely on some of the Sense framework that's specific to GPE.

I'll have to correct you there. I did a little more searching, and found someone in the Wildfire S forums who had ported Beats from the GPE One to his unofficial CM10.1 ROM for the WFS. I asked him how he did so, and he said that you replace and add a couple files, and you can get it up and running.

Can you link me to that thread? I'd like to take a look!
But I also think that we still need to get our audio issues figured out 100% on CM10.1 & 2 for the DNA before we think about adding beats eqs into the mix. To my knowledge we still don't have the amps working correctly on CM.

Yea sure, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2283549 . And I thought the audio issues were only with the external speakers? If it's possible to pull Beats from GPE, which I'm told is Sense based, would we be able to use the Sense 4.2.2 ROMs for trying to fix the AOSP audio issues?
