can anyone recommend a good portable speaker? - Galaxy Note II Accessories

Hello everyone, sold my iphone and got a galaxy note 2, but the old portable speaker i have is incompatible. I seem to be having problems looking for another one also. Can anyone give me a suggestion for a good portable speaker for the note 2? thanks.

ive eyeing these right now:
HMDX Audio HX-P230BL JAM Bluetooth Wireless Speaker
http://www.amazon.com/HMDX-HX-P230B...eberry/dp/B007R6HUEE/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top
lots of positive reviews and packs a punch.

I have Big Jambox, and I love it.
Also last week, I saw and tested Soundfreaq Sound Kick for $99, I have to say I'm very impressed go test it out if you have Target nearby.

I'd be interested to know other suggestions as well.
I have narrowed down my search to only devices that support aptX bluetooth codec. Since our phones support it, it seems like a waste to not use it. Unfortunately, the Jambox and Big Jambox do not. I'm sure they still sound good, but I really want to take advantage of aptX.
Currently, my top choice is the soundmatters foxL v2. Runner up: Braven 650

I've got a Bose Soundlink. Great sound and good travel size but not cheap.

Bought that too. Cost me a bit more than what i need but the sounds for music and movie is phenomenal for phone and computer. Connect up to 6 devices

Good Quality sound = money.
I've got the original jambox and recommend it. I've paired and head the soundlink and would say the same - very very crisp good sound.
if you want loud + portable and good sound, the soundfreaq kick is a bargain around 100 bucks
beyond that, the logitech pure-fi (i have two), originally made for idevice docking is a really good sounding bar, rechargable and has aux in; i use it with a paired hs3000 and basically, everything i own is bluetooth.
goodluck! post up if you buy something!

I have the Soundfreaq sound kick.
Fantastic sound for the price.

After I did some extended research on internet and in the stores I have decided on Jabra Solemate (link)
GREAT SOUND ( I mean REALLY great and loud), better than monster, bose, etc
4 speakers
battery lasts like 10h
easy up to 4 devices can connect over BT
can connect to computers via USB and mini jack (works with phone as well)
the cover is a unique feature (let's the sound out undistorted, but the water / dust out)
very stable on any surface.
has a mic so you can use it as a conference device
CON
sometimes BT connection with my MacBook Pro is drooping (no clues why). It did not happened with the phone
I have the white version

Another vote for the Bose Soundlink. Battery life is great and it's very portable. You can fine tune the sound with an equalizer app for excellent results. I got mine at BJ's and it included the car charger.

Headphones! which to buy?

Hello, I have HTC HD2 with Android MIUI on board. And I wanted to get new headphones, because the only headphones, that i have alive, are my old Phillips (5 years)
So can someone help me ?
1. i need them to be in-ear
2. they have to work with my phone
3. they must have flat wire
4. them must have L-shaped plug
I found only 2 headphones, that are OK with me, but i never head about 1 of them.
What i found: Beats Tour and a-Jays, but Beats don't have L-shaped plug, so i am sure, that they will die after month of using.
a-Jays have several versions, from one to four.Four was designed to fit iPhone, but it has all i need, so will it work with my HTC HD2?
Here are a-Jays four:

And here are Beats Tour:
I'd try to find answers at : headfi.org . But don't forget to bring back your conclusions about your pick !
Get the aJays, I'm getting myself one soon.
Although they hinted that the headphones will work with the HD2 along with the buttons, they weren't direct. Here is their reply:
>Dear Faris,
Sorry for the lateness of our reply, it is vacation time in Sweden.
The product is design specifically for Apple’s own products and that is what we recommend you use it for. However, whilst some of the features (like answer calls / pause and play music etc.) might work with other devices, we have decided not to market it in this way.
Hope it answer your question.
Kind regards,
JAYS Support

Ämne: Will the a-Jays Four work with other smartphones?
Hello,
I'm contacting you regarding your product, a-JAYS Four. It says it was designed to fit and work with the iPhone, iPod and the iPad. Could it work with other phones like the HTC HD2 ?
And How will the buttons be functioning?
Thanks in advance.
looking forward to hearing from you.
Get these, them satisfy all your requirements except the flat cable and they have awesome SQ and are very well made.

Can I buy anywhere BOSE on a good price?
Hands down the Astro A*Stars. These are what I use on a daily basis, they're built for gaming, and work well on my PS3 as well (with their amplifier it does amazing surround sound), but they really pump on the HD2. I should note that I get my best performance from MIUI Music as well (I switch ROMs frequently), even though I love CM7, the MIUI music player (or try Uber Music) is noticeably clearer with these headphones and a few other I've tried. The in-line controls work well for play/pause on any ROM, volume controls are excellent, and I have literally stood in front of a fan and used them to make phone calls with total clarity. The mic is wind-shielded. My only wish for the product would be a skip button as well.

The lowest price on a BOSE headset is $80 at Sam's Club. Check this link out

i got my in-ears from deal-extreme, they come for $1.80 so even if they break its no big deal..
Quality really isnt bad at all.
I have the Shure SE 215. For me they are really perfect and sound awesome.
But it depends on what kind of music you like. Do you want much bass or is the clarity important.
On head-fi.org forum you can get some really good advice for in-ear monitors. They helped me to.
Dear, I have these headphones:Sennheiser HD 201
Good Sound!
Hello,
I would go for beats.
I use "Sony MDR-XB40EX" head set.
It's in ear, flat cable, L shape 3.5mm jack.
I love extra bass

This is clip type, there is another type which you hook on your ear set one, but im wearing a glasses, that why i think its not suitable for me. This babe i buy for rm99 which equal $34 dollar.
Just use it for 1 day, so far it is good. Receive call, making call sound is very clear and good. How about you guys? Any others good brand?
Heard about the one that can display name contact person, but i could not found one here.

Does anyone else notice each time if you left your tab and you are away for 20 minute and when you come back to your tab, it is not paired anymore? You have to mnually paired it again. Is this normal? Any others way to make sure its always paired automatically?

Using Jabra Stone and I like it, no need to worry to break the earhook when wearing tight jeans (keeping it in the pocket), the reception is much better than the original ones coz it fits my inside ears better than the original. battery is good since it always clipped at the charger

All controls work and they are comfortable for all day use and don't have a behind the ear form factor that makes a lot of bluetooth headsets very uncomfortable for glasses wearers.

I also have mw600, but the LG HBS-700 looks really interesting. The mw600 is OK, it supports multiple devices and has FM radio, but I didn't like the earphones just dangling around my neck. I also find it hard to control the volume with mw600.

Hi bro...can we hear music using wep 495 on gtab? if yes, how?

What Headphones/Earbuds do you use?

Everyone here will have their own opinions on which they would prefer, so I am not asking that because everyone listens music in their own way. So what do you use?
Personally I have used my V-Moda Crossfades LPs on my recent trip to NY. Well actually my 4 year old did watching Lorax on my N7 lol. But I tested out the volume before popping them in of course, but what I did hear was a clear dialog. From Dallas to NY she watched the entire movie using the V-Moda Crossfade LPs.
The crossfades are my fav headsets altogether for all different types of music and movies I watch on my different devices including the Nexus 7.

My work earbuds which I use on the Nexus and Sensation at times is the mid range earbuds-Shure SE215. Bottom line, great sound when you have a good seal but because I wear glasses, they tend to interfere with them but it's not too bad. Sorry, I didn't do a review on this one. Not sure why, but they are a very good pair of earbuds.
Last and not least, iBeats headphones that came with the Sensation XE's. Not a horrible earbud, very muddy but very bass heavy. Not my cup of tea but works without issues.
Honorable mention: Sony Ericsson MW600. Bluetooth stereo headphones. With this, you can use any of the above headphones/earbuds in this unit. Pair it to your device, in this case, a Nexus 7 and viola...track and volume controls (to an extent) included.

Previously I was using Ultimate Ears MetroFi 170.
I use Philips O'Neill The Stretch, which imo are pretty good for $35. These are the first headphones that have real bass, and I'd recommend them to anyone. Then again I really haven't used any other real headphones, so I can't really compare.

Be it a fad or whatever you call it, "I" personally wanted to see what are available at a mid range price. A few hundred is the "retail" price of my 'collection'. I personally never pay retail :silly: .
So I decided I wanted to test out a few of these guys out. I mean I can't really sell earbuds back on ebay...well I can, but I feel weird selling earbuds that already have been stuck in my ear lol.

jaybird bluebuds X

Hi Guys
I bought the Nokia BH-505 bluetooth stereo headset, it is great for music but awful for playing games as there is the problem of sound delay. So the sound of every click i make on the phone is delayed by around 1 second which makes it really annoying
I came across the Jaybird bluebuds X and the review about them seem to be great in terms of sound quality and comfort, but I am not sure whether they also have the issue of the sound delay.
Has anyone used the bluebuds X and can confirm whether there is delay or not, or even if someone can recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset that has no delay
Thanks
I have the Bluebuds X and I haven't noticed any delay. I just use them when I'm working out so I couldn't tell you how they perform when playing a game. For music they are pretty awesome.

Hi guys
Thanks for the feedback, but my main concern is the audio delay which you cannot detect when listening to music. Can you try a game and check whether there is delay. For example when you press the fire button in a game do you hear the fire sound immediately or do you hear it delayed by almost a second? Thanks

I swap mine with TSX500 last week, first I thought it doesn't fit, hard to put the bluebuds inside the foam, but after couple tries, it went in, better comfort, better sound outputs.
An Alternative
I use these:
http://www.lg.com/us/cell-phone-accessories/lg-HBS700-tone
Unfortunately, after testing them with Inotia 4, I found out that the delay is there for these, too. It's kind of strange, though, since there was no such delay before when I used them on my Sensation XE. And then again, when I used them with my Vita, the audio was delayed, too.
Anyway, if you're still interested, there's a newer version of these, the Tone+ or HBS730.

I ordered a mix pack to test out all the sizes. I ended up fitting best with a medium as far as I can tell so I gave the small ones to my GF and I may or may not use the large ones some more to do more testing to see if the larger ones offer better isolation and retain relatively the same comfort.

For example when you press the fire button in a game do you hear the fire sound immediately or do you hear it delayed by almost a second? Thanks

Hi,
I've these earbuds. Yes, there is 1 second delay in games(Ex : Temple Run). But no delay in videos.
I experience the lag during gaming as well using my BlueAnt Ribbon, and I believe it is a known issue for Android. I read somewhere that 4.2.2 is supposed to fix it.
these are the best sounding bt stereo headphones...period!

Either the Tx-500 or the TsX-500
I currently use a medium TsX-500 and it's fantastic.

You are the man! I'm using them right now and they stay in much better now, the BBx should come with these.....

I swap mine with TSX500 last week, first I thought it doesn't fit, hard to put the bluebuds inside the foam, but after couple tries, it went in, better comfort, better sound outputs.

Hi Guys
I bought the Nokia BH-505 bluetooth stereo headset, it is great for music but awful for playing games as there is the problem of sound delay. So the sound of every click i make on the phone is delayed by around 1 second which makes it really annoying
I came across the Jaybird bluebuds X and the review about them seem to be great in terms of sound quality and comfort, but I am not sure whether they also have the issue of the sound delay.
Has anyone used the bluebuds X and can confirm whether there is delay or not, or even if someone can recommend a good bluetooth stereo headset that has no delay
Thanks

I have had the BBX's for roughly 2 weeks now. I have only noticed a delay when my phone is "sleeping." Otherwise this is the best set of bud headphones I've owned since I bought my Soul SL99 last year. Now to get these foam earplugs everyone is talking about to finalize the fit!
Wow. I just checked for these on Amazon.co.uk and apparently JayBird think that $=£, as they're trying to sell them for £170 (almost $260) compared to their $169 price in the US :/
do you still need those little "wings" on the earpiece once you install the Comply buds?

What headphoes are you using?

What in/on/over ear headphones are you using on your note?
I am using jvc xtreme xplosives.
Cheap and good

The interwebz have been raving about the Monoprice 108320 and I got a pair and some nice tips, and I haven't looked back. These sound so good. And for the price, they are unbeatable. I would easily pay $20-$30 more for these based off the sound quality.
They aren't great to use with a phone though since there is no mic or control buttons. But they sound great!

I'm genuinely curious: how do $1000 headphones sound? I just can't even imagine spending that much on a pair of cans.

I love mine! I got the blue pair. They have the perfect balance of sound and it sounds AMAZING when playing HD movies. Also can't forget about the best in class noise canceling.

Hah. You tell me, I was laughing at my friend and his Denon D7000, I was using B&W P5 at that time, and I swore that I will never spend that much money for headphones.
Next thing I know, I just click that Make Offer button on Ebay, it was accepted, and here I got the Ed.8 on the mail.
It sounds much cleaner, much deeper wider soundstage conpared to P5, but does it worth that much? Maybe not, but I dont regret it ...
