Hi.
Sometimes sound becomes distorted when i play mp3s. I use the handsfree that came with the phone.
When sound gets distorted....if i lower the volume ...about 2 bars lower sound becomes clear but volume is to low...
When everything is ok, i can set the volume all the way up without any distortion. I play the same song to make the test.
I tried with another motorola handsfree (it plays in mono) and when there is sound distortion, i can hear it with the motorola handsfree too...so i don't think that is a headphones issue.
I'm using deathnoise's rom...i was using another...but i had the same issue.
Can i do something?
Thanks!...
Edit:
Two examples of distorted and clean sound. Recorded from the headphones' output of qtek 2020i to PC.

I've been using Sennheiser CX-300 II's since I got the phone, but there's a clearly audible hiss when you plug them in, so I'm looking for something new. They don't need to have a remote or anything, I just want decent quality sound and minimal static hiss. My budget is up to 100€.
What I've been looking at is the Klipsch Image S4 or S5 (although the latter is stretching my budget a bit). Does anyone have any experiences with the HD2+ S4 combo?
I've been using Klipsh S2i and they are decent,
now got Shure Se315 and they are AWESOME, but a bit pricey (also you can change the kevlar cable with the one that has remote as earbuds have a bit dif construction than anything I had so far)
what I want to say is: HD2 sound quality isn't good even with EQ, my iPod touch has better bass and song are clearer than on HD2...
Maybe you got some fake cx 300. Check this thread anythingbutipod. com/forum/showthread.php?t=8392
They're genuine Sennheisers, that isn't the issue.
They work perfectly fine with other sources so it's just a mismatch with the HD2 and the CX-300 II's. I've tested the phone out with other headphones (Shure SRH-840, Koss PortaPro) and there was no hiss. With a proper source there's no hiss with the CX-300 II's either so it's all down to the phone not handing the earbuds correctly.
Bought today sennheiser cx 500, works perfectly w/ hd2.
Strange, I also have the CX300-II's
Sounds absolutely perfect on my HD2, and yes, I worked in a audio production studio so I am not deaf.

Could you test something out for me?
Play a song on the Sense music tab at a reasonable volume (over 50% for this test's purpose) and then hit pause. Can you hear a hiss for a few moments after you pause the song? For me there's a short period of hissing after which I assume the phone cuts power to the output so the hiss disappears. If I play a song the hiss is always on the background and it's incredibly annoying on quiet, mellow songs or audio books because I hear it all the time. It isn't really an issue with loud songs tho as the hissing is drowned out, but I digress.
I just tested out my Sennheiser HD 650's with the phone and there was absolutely zero hiss.

Because that is a headphone,and not a earbud
What does that have to do with anything? I know they're not earbuds.

Ok tested it but on Android which is basically the same.
I also hear 'hissing' but basically it is just the amplifier which cuts off after about 2 seconds of no output being detected.
It is not loud at all but I think that the Sennheiser has a lower output volume at the same setting which will offcourse also diminish the noise to background level.
Thanks for testing it out for me.
The reason I mentioned the HD 650's was because there simply isnt any hiss at any volume settings. I tried playing a track that starts out with a long stretch of silence and I couldnt hear any hissing even when the volume was maxed out. With the earbuds the hiss is clearly audible even at 20% volume.
Listening to music and noticed the top speaker is significantly louder than the bottom. Has anyone else experienced this? Im currently on Pure Shamu 2.6 and am going to restore back to stock to see if that might be the issue, just wanted to see if it might just be my unit.
me as well, looked it up and found your thread
I have noticed that also.
Hi, could everyone that has the nexus 6 with the top speaker that is louder, put there ring tone volume on 100 or 75 and play your ring tones and confirm if you have some distortion with some of the ring tones, kind of sounds like a blown speaker, a raddle like sound, and also make a speaker phone call to see if you hear it as well, don't really hear it when playing music, just on rings and speaker phone at a higher volume
I think I've narrowed it down to Viper sound. I reflashed back to stock and the speakers worked normally. Then i reflashed pure rom and speakers still worked. Gonna test on my next to be sure.
Well I'm on a stock ROM since I bought this phone and I noticed that the top speaker plays louder. It's a bit annoying because I'm the kind of perfectionist person...
Hi, just got my nexus 6 and noticed that the top speaker is louder than the bottom speaker was just wondering if this was normal also the speakers become distorted on some music but is fine on other.
Wondering what yoir experiance is with the speakers.
My speakers sound perfectly uniform no volume differences between the two. I haven't really experienced any distortion but I suppose it would really depend on what type of music you are playing. In the end these aren't boomspeakers and they are small. But for what they are they still sound pretty good.
yea might have just been the music i was playing because when listening to some youtube videos the speakers seem to sound the same I just recon some of my music isnt proper stereo or something because some things sound uniform some doesnt.
Just restart the phone. This seems to happen to me from time to time.
So I used a toothbrush to clean the top grill speaker since it was buzzing a lot and now the speakers sound as new when I play music or YouTube videos. But now, in call volume is so low you can basically not even hear it. I put it on max and it helps a little but not even able to hear anything, anyone know a fix?
