i'm looking at maybe buying a set of buds/canals for around AUD100. would this price point give a noticable improvement in sound quality over the stock buds?
i mainly play 192kpbs mp3's.
thanks.
The HD2 buds are crap, as with most prepackaged ones.
EDIT: However, the remote is useful. If you have a soldering iron you could solder the cables just over the remote to a pair of new ones that fit better (I did it with the extra iPhone cable that came with my Beats by Dr. Dre (Monster), great success!)

Cool! I would LOVE to try these too with my Beats... but I would rather get an extra Beat's cable to do it... can't bear to cut the ones I got. The Beats cable remote will still answer calls and pause music... any idea where I can order an extra?
The 'earbuds' that come with the HD2 are even worse than the Apple whites. Which should tell you everything you need to know.
They are horrible. It's like sticking a fruit pastel in your ear.

I don't know where to buy an extra in your case, but they do exist. Saw them at an Apple store where I live. I'd guess eBay is a good bet.
well i ended up buying some over-ear headphones. i mainly use them when the tv is being used by someone else and i want to listen to music/games, or for watching movies later at night.
i couldnt really hear alot wrong with the stockies though. they got a bit untrolled during mid-range heavy stuff, at loud volume, and not very strong bass, but i thought they sounded ok. horrible size and shape for my ears though.
i went with sennhieser hd25 sp2's. they seem pretty good overall and keep out backround noise at home.
Do other headphones work as antenna for the radio?
i have an issue with my HD2 that if i plug in a normal set of headphones (standard 3 pole 3.5mm jack) the phone starts randomly making calls
has anyone else had this ?
i would love new headphones as the standards are utter crap

the ones i bought do. very well. id guess, like most fm radios, any piece of conductive metal would tranmit and receive a signal.

no unless you can find another pair with a fm reciver that fits into a 3.5mm jack
so a normal set of headphones = no
The receiver is not in the headphone itself, so that should not make a difference at all.
i tested the stock earbuds today and i can't say that they are very bad in sound quality. but the music is not loud enough for me! will some other earbuds gain some level? sorry for my english...
the stock earbuds dont get loud enough for me sometimes, but they fit snugly for me and i like the design. i especially love the little remote on the wiring.
unfortunately, they dont really make the earbuds any better. i have had my hd2 for about three weeks now and my left bud is giving me sound issues. i gotta twist the jack a few times and wiggle it around to get sound back into it. its quite annoying.
do you guys know of any good earbuds with the remote on it?

I have some Etymotic HF2 haedphones and they work with the radio.... No problems with them. Sound quality is great and athough not bass heavy they are very open and natural with very clear seperation. They do work best with the foam ear tips over the silicone ones supplied and looking at getting some Comply foam tips as I want to use these on my bike and also keep out the road noise. The standard ones are OK and work very well.The sound is better for me using the foams so the better shaped Comply ones are my next purchase......
The Etymotic HF2's have been much better than any one's I have tried so far and comfortable if you are used to wearing ear plugs....

someone on page one said it will be possible to solder ur own buds to the remote. i am going to try that (will make some picture's) and report back, maybe ill even create my own topic if everything works out ok
I dont understand how you guys can listen to music on your HD2 - the headphone output is extremely noisy!!!
Whether I put in stock earbuds, Westone UM2s, or Audio-Technica CK100 trips it's just crap.

its perfect with my philips in ear buds! i did used audio booster bass booster tho
I do not like the headphones that came with the HD2.
I have had sony and LG phones that had a 3.5mm jack right where the mic/answer/pause/etc clip. So I could use any set of headphones I wanted.
I know I can plug directly into the HD2. But I would like to have the control to answer the phone and talk with the mic using my earbuds.
Anyone know of a universal 3.5mm cable with the mic clip etc. that works with the HD2?
Thanks

How would it be, if you would use the "search" function?!
There are quite a lot threads around talking about this subject, I can't see any need for a new one!
Hi all
I have oddly shaped ears so in ear headphones, like the ones that come with the HTC 7 Mozart, are not particularly comfortable and the right one always falls out!
Does anybody know if there are any third party products that have the three pin 3.5mm jack connector with the in-line media controls included? I am thinking of over the ear headphones.
Cheers

if u dont mind shelling out some nice dough there are very good ones from Bose and Sennheiser (Were developed for iphone but works like a treat with Mozart)
Checked from a buddy of mine who has the bose one
Can I just get any of those "made for iPhone" headsets or will the mic and buttons not work with a HTC phone?

The Mozart is quite obviously quite different to the iPhone, hardware and software-wise; thus, if the headphones are specifically made for iPhone, you can be pretty damn sure the buttons won't work for anything other than the iPhone.

Yeah. cauze the inbox Headphones of the mozart are really crappy i took the headphones of my womans Samsung wave. when i first connectet them it was horrible cuz u need to plug them out a litle bit. but after i figuered that out its like a charm. but still: buttons not working.
cheers
HTC has wired heasets for the Mozart as well, including a (single) button for accepting/ending a call. You an plug in your own headphone as well for better sound so it only delivers the mic and the button if you want... About €15 on eBay...
I tried the iPhone headphones with Mozart. You can play, pause, answer, hang up, and launch voice control.
The volume buttons don't work however.
Does anyone know if there are high quality in-ear headsets from shure or sennheiser etc. with working volume buttons (+take/end call, play/pause music etc.) ?
/EDIT:
I just ordered the Etymotic hf2 (etymotic.com/ephp/hf2.html). These have support for WM7 and are supposed to have really good sound quality and isolation. I'll comment about their quality and functionality with my Mozart when I get them.
BTW, there's a nice $60 rebate on the ruby and cobalt versions of them... I ordered the ruby ones.

now-a-days all the earphones come with 3.5mm jack
i would recommend you to try over ear headphones instead of in-ear for more comfort!
you could do what I did:
take the original HTC headphones with the built-in microphone
take apart the controller and remove the wires to the speakers
replace the speakers wire with some good speakers - Creative in-ear
result: headphone with microphone, controller volume and answer acces with great speakers for music too
Try beats audio earphone and they are preety awesome plus have different earbuds suitable for your ears too...

Try dr.dre beats headphones they are awesome dude, top quality for sound. Best ear product in the market.
I use a set of Jabra Sport corded earphones with my Mozart.
It only gives play/pause and voice control though (all in one button). It has it's own volume slider that is independent from the phone.
I'm very happy with the audio and build quality of them, but not quite all the features you want.
The fit is one of the best I've ever had, no ear fatigue and they actually stay on when running, or hanging upside down, they went for a swim and survived as well.
I occasionally use them with a Sony MW600 BT thingy, it gives the music change functions, but adds another independent volume control.
Hi Guys
The headset that came with the phone is perfect at all levels except one.
It has excellent bass and sound quality, volume control, and good quality mic
The only problem is that the headset has in ear plugs, and my ear canal is quite narrow so it keeps falling. I've tried to push it inside but it keeps falling. I've also tried the smallest plugs but still they fall
I was looking on the web but could not find a headset exactly the same as the original one but with different ear plugs. Has anyone come across another option that has all the options available in tue original headset but with different ear plug. Thanks

Have you tried the Samsung EHS71 which uses BA drives.
This review gives you a idea on the quality, but I normally take it as reference, and try them personnally to see if the sound is what you like.
http://www.topreviewshop.com/samsung_ehs71_earphones_mic
or you can try the sony XBA-2VP as a alternative.
The OEM headphone are absolute garbage. You better off replacing them with some other junk at Walmart that might actually sound just a little better.

Interesting; my phone did not come with headphones. Not that I care.
Buy The Klipsh S4; I heard those IEMs are now $35 bucks
Thanks but none of the suggestions have volume control, or they are in ear. I am looking for headset that is not in ear

i want to buy new In-Earheadphones can you please suggest me some

I'm no expert when it comes to headphones, but I've been using the JVC Xtreme Xplosives (In-Ear). They are comfortable, very cheap (they cost me USD $18 several months ago) and the sound is awesome with the included amplifier in the One.
JVC has In-Ear, On-Ear and Over-Ear headsets within the Xtreme Xplosives line. You may want to check them out.

I didn't know you were looking for a headset with mic. I'd go to Amazon or other online retailer and look for price/reviews on them and get one.
Do you have any idea about Bose MIE2I??? Is this product compatible with HTC ONE?
I personally prefer Shure headphones over Bose when I've tried both. I've used Bose QC20 (in ear) and QC15 (over ear) - to me the active noise cancelation deadened the sound of the music making it much less vibrant.
I've also used Shure SE110, SE210, and SE425 (all in ear). They all had better sound than the Bose due to not using active noise cancelation (a properly fitting in ear seal is all the noise cancelation you really need) and all allow you to have an in line mic. The 110s were OK, but they're old now so you probably can't find them. The 210s are probably the worst headphones they've made - don't bother. The 425s are excellent and I currently use these. Be aware that they have a pretty neutral profile so if you prefer over emphasized bass like from beats headphones then you probably won't like these. The 425s are priced similarly to the Bose ones.
As a side note, the best investment you can make for in ear headphones is getting some custom fit sleeves for your ear canals. It makes a world of difference to any headphones in both noise isolation and sound quality
