Choices of Headphones

Other than the original HTC headphones, what choices do I have? I have tried some nice headphones but the Mic doesn't work out right. People who r using Inc S, what headphones are u using?

What's your budget? Check out this thread from head-fi forums (http://www.head-fi.org/forum/thread...beyerdynamic-dtx-71-ie-dtx-101-ie-added-05-20) All the reviews are sorted out by price range. The best headphones I've used are Monster Turbine Pros and Klipsch Image S4s which are both in the under $200 category. Don't fall for the hype and stay away from Beats.

I use Bose MIE2 phones, nothing quite like it as I hate the ones that go inside your ear canal. Price 80 quid.

If you have the cash, the Sennheiser MM450 and MM550 are pretty much top of the line for bluetooth sets, and for IEMs I've found that most Ultimate Ears sets give me the sound I want (though they can get pricey for more professional models), but the mic doesn't work all the time for some reason. For example, they work with my girlfriend's IncS with a stock Froyo setup but not with mine running CM7.

Maybe this help.
I take this picture from a application called Electrodroid..
Pay attention on RED square.

Sorry i have posted this in the wrong place.....

looking to pick up a pair of Beats Tour soon, considering our HTC devices can utilise ROMs with the feature implemented

I'm using SkullCandy Full Metal Jacket.
they're loud and have nice bass + a mic fully working on the Incredible S. Also comes with a case.
if you've got an iPod the mic has a button you can use to shuffle songs.
they're RRP $90 in AUS.
Google it, you might find some better prices.

I have the Monster Tour headsets - got them cheap as well from Ebay. Though I am not too pleased with the sound. I am on a stock rom, with no beats software, probably that is why. Am seriously thinking of buying the Bose MIE though.

go for it ... i got the mie2 and its INSANE with both beats and SRS

I'm using my UE 600vi from my ipod, they sound great!
But have u noticed a sort of white noise at low level of volume?
It's pretty noticeable when you are in your bad with low volume during silence between tracks and in certain parts of songs when there is only some background rumor/music.
(obliviously it happens with ipod/original htc earbud)

What's about Philips O'neill The stretch?

For sure they are expensive. Sound are good. Pretty decent. But I'm not an audiophile and not wanted to wear plain-looking earphones. This is the reason why I bought this.

[Q] Earphones experience, pls

Hello, all
Recently, I lost my stock ear phones. So,I'm looking for replacement.
I'm planning to use about 100 $ - 150 $.
Any recommendation? pls,
Please share ur experiences.
What I expected is .. for music and control calls.
Beats by Dr.Dre like (iBeats , JustBeats ) work on htc incredible S ? ( on Nik's Custom Rom with beats).
anybody did try?

I have iBeats and they are awesome! Works good on IncS just the control panel doesn't, but that's not so important imo. But they doesn't sound that good with htc beats software. Try DSP-Manager from CM7 and use that with stock htc player - awesome sound, really!

beats anything are overpriced for what you get.
Perusing the sages' writings at headfi is recommended. They have a few recommendations for earphones in your price range.

I heard lots of musicians or sound engineer saying so. But I guess that if you listen to electronic/dance/techno/dubstep... music for which you want great bass they can be good!

iBeats have this control panel thing(don't really know the English name). It's attached to the headphones itself. It doesn't work like it should, but you can play/pause tracks, I guess... Of course you can do everything propably on your phone itself...

Even under that criteria, there are still better options in the price range.

I use klispch s4
They are in your price range, and have excellent sound quality
I wouldnt go near beats, they are overpriced and a fashion statement
If you want truly good sound, go for a company that has experience creating speakers and headphones
Not beats or skullcandy
Just my 2 cents

I assume is like the optimus. In that case, if it helps anyone relate, think Atrix style rumble rather than a very compressed wave vibration on the galaxy services.

I went to my local o2 early in the morning they didnt even had it in their computers at the time waited for a while and the lady there just sold it to me sim free. Some o2 stores still dont have it in stock tho

How's the sound? Is it loud as the HTC phones or low? I had mytouch 4G and it was very loud but the LG G2X is very low. I have to use the Volume+ for the LG G2X . Thanks.

Is the display washed out as engadget claimed?

What headphones do you use with your Nexus 7?

Hey everyone. I'm just wondering what headphones/earphones/ear buds/ whatever you call them, you use.
I currently use some old apple earphones I found in my house, and I'm wondering which headphones others use, and if anyone can suggest some too.
Thanks!

Head-fi.org is your friend, I still use pre-logitech ultimate ears buds, but cannot recommend them these days as quality has definitely declined. I would also stay well away from beats, Bose and any other sold in big box stores phones that are north of $100 as you can do much better for the same money with better brands. That said get on headfi and see what they recommend for the music you listen to/where and how you listen. Good luck with it!

I wouldn't subject my poor ears to the Tegra DAC... That's just cruel.
If I was it would be on my ATH-M50sLE though. Cheap but good. Gets a bad rap for its popularity though.

I agree with the post who mentioned head-fi although it is a big audiophile community there are a ton of suggestions they can give well within whatever budget your shopping in.

None. I have a kickass pair of bluetooth headphones that I use with my android phone. But since google destroyed bluetooth audio playback a few months ago on the nexus 7, I can't use those headphones with the tablet.

I usually use my Panasonic RP-HT46 headphones.I like these because they fold up and have an angles plug. I have had them so long, the foam deteriorated, so I bought a pair of super cheap Sanyo's just to use the foam. Sometimes I will use my Sony mdre9lp ear buds, but I usually use these for running.

I use a pair of maxell (I think that's the name) earbuds that I got from OfficeDepot. Not bad for $5. Got my mom a pair too.

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!

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 ...
