[Q] Beats Audio against SRS , Dolby Mobile etc.

can you explain me the advantages of beats audio?
imho SRS sounds much better than beats audio. much deeper bass and high tones are clear.
maybe it only give better sound an beats headphones?

Good question, I'd like to know too...
OK just found this:

This review is a pretty good analysis of what Beats actually does on a HTC phone (only one I've seen on the internet apart from speculation about the magical Beats)
http://www.engadget.com/2011/10/13/htc-sensation-xe-with-beats-audio-review/
Basically, if you dont use it with Beats headphones you get a crap experience unless you're into Top 40 Sine Waves Under 400Hz.

Thanks I will check that out.

Same here. I like SRS better than others effects. I'm using Westone UM2.

I use srs, beats sounds a bit tinny to me

If You are using HTC Innovation headphones, then SRS wil be the best one fitting you.

If you are using HTC headphones, you gave rocks in your head.
Sorry, but they are really bad IMO.

Take it from a sound engineer: beats audio is nothing but marketing. The actual sound quality you get is no better than a standard consumer product. In fact, it may well be worse, since they crank up the bass response for no real reason.

In certain cases, the sound hardware must put into considerations as well. Such as headphones accessories.

thanks for your professional meaning. how do you rate the other settings like SRS, dolby mobile etc?

Beats practically made no difference on my phone. What does is, DSP manager. But you need your phone to be rooted for that. And trust me, You need to hear it to believe it!
Makes your sound, specially beats, better than any ipod ever made.

I think so. SRS is wider and louder than Beat.
Or maybe I need Beat earphone to run with it

I thought all these sound enhancement things were in the kernel
and that sense roms are based off HTC kernels with SRS
so therefore AOSP roms dont have SRS
Therefore none have beats or dolby
Please correct me if im wrong
All this has come from surfing around other forums, with kernels that say they have beats integration and rezound sound drivers etc.

Personally I don't like srs, beats audio seems to me that doesnt' change anything...
I think that beats driver does something only in phones that have a native hardware support...
BTW, I'm using ue-600..

there is a way to install the Beats Audio, which I RockoDev for all roms in Incredible Gingerbread S, and probe some zip but remain on bootloop to initiate or otherwise do not allow me to use the native player I get FC

Headphone volume

Hi guys,
I know this seems strange, but I'm a bit concerned about the loudness of the headphone volume based on reviews. I hear it is really loud, this seems like a bad thing to me?
On my s2, I am running dorimanx kernel so I can lower headphone volume, as it is too loud to listen to music on lowest settings. I also use power amp as it is quieter than other players. I listen to metal, which seems to be more of an issue than other styles of music due to the density of sound. I have tried multiple headphones, so not an issue there.
Has anyone had any experiences with the one that can calm my fears?
Cheers guys

No it's fine if you got power amp you can turn it down quite low I use power amp I don't have any problems at all

It's really loud, especially with the Beats in-ear headphones. I was surprised that it was such good quality though. Deep bass and hi treble. Excellent earphones.
I would root the device and get an app that can give you -100% to +100% control of your volume. If you install another ROM, you will lose the Beats EQ which is responsible for processing the audio and you will lose quality.
Good luck!

Thanks! I've heard that the quality is great. I haven't come across any apps that allow this? Have been using custom kernels for this. Would you say that on lowest volume it's not too loud? I have noise canceling cans, not inner ears.

Xperia V (Sound Problem)

Now i'm very disappointed of Xperia V sound for listening music because when i played with Walkman Player, sound are not stable.When i taste with Clear Bass +8 or +10, sound output is low volume with not stable. Sometime sound volume was increase level but sometime decrease with not stable for listening. Original Walkman Player 4.1.2 on Xperia V is very lousy with not look like My Old Xperia Neo. Why ???? When i used Sony Ericssion Xperia Neo, Everythings r very good & taste with Clear Bass +8db or +10db, sound
is very good taste for feeling. Now i changed Neo to Xperia V, very disappointed for listening for songs of music. And then cannot use Xperia Neo headphone on Xperia V.
How can i do Xperia Neo sound quality on Xperia V??? I don't like sound for listen my new Xperia V.

I have the V, too.
If you give so much bass to the sound, it is no wonder the system will try best to limit the volume for preventing damage to the tiny speaker, the headphone or your ears. Especially in conjunction with a cheap headphone that might be quite annoying, yep. If you like bass then buy headphones that deliver bass without the need for pumping it up artificially.

Thanks Bro! do u know how to stop limit volume for preventing damage to the tiny speaker?? i don't want to need limit the volume for clear bass.
It's depend on limit from system or headphone bro?? i like more my old xperia neo headphone but V is not support for Neo.
Thanks

Acid Audio: Good all-in-one-package. Very popular. But some say, it's a little unstable. (And I'm not quite sure if this one worked for me )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177709
Viper Audio: Lots of settings, but more a convoler. Some say it sounds a little unnatural, others love it.
Btw I recommend xHiFi version, it's better imo. ^^
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
PureXAudio: Clearest sound of them all. Also has a great bass! Using this one myself.
Make sure to only flash the lite version, as the full one only supports Xperia Z!

Have fun with trying them!

IF this even doesn't work, then try download poweramp...

When everything fails, then try viper4android.
