Good price. I paid 420$ for mine and I think the FX850 were worth it.

4.4.2 There's no higher version for the mini.

My recently purchased HTC mini 2 sounds great but it clipps above 13/15 volume.

Samsung tends to limit the volume level on their phones either to prevent ear damage (read lawsuits) or to preserve life battery (read higher specs). Remember Galaxy S1 and the voodoo tweak?  You will probably have to flash a custom kernel on your note to get decent volume. Or get an HTC phone.

Hopefully the Exynos version has less crosstalk.

You won't be disappointed. 

My better half pulled out with force the right earphone while i was listening to them. The cable has left in her hand and the earpiece stayed in my ear. Now the right connector is more loose compared to the left one and sometimes gets disconnected with minimal force, to a point where I I fear...

Haha yeah. They sound phenomenal!

Hahah i feel dirty. I usually don't lie.   So, I was wondering, my portable source will be the clip+ but I feel it won't do the woodies justice. I was thinking HTC M8/Galaxy S5/  or one of the iBasso/Fiio variants. Any thoughts?

If only my girlfriend knew how excited I am, I'd be in trouble. p.s I told her they cost 150

Try the s3 thread.

You can raise the volume by modifying default_gain.conf in system/etc http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2274033 the s4 9500 sounds superpb and has plenty of juice. Still haven't had the chance to compare it to the voodoo'd galaxy s1. I want I the s4 to be better :)

I prefer the voddoo'd SGS over my clip by far, simply for the strong amp the SGS has. Drives my AKG K240 S like it's nothing while they are barely audible with the clip. There's only one situation where i'de pick the clip over the SGS and that's when jogging. Don't ask me to compare both...

Yea my bad I got your twitter quote above a lil wrong.

How is nexus WM8994 dac different from sgs1 WM8994 dac?

Quote:   So it shares the same dac with the SG1. Did he expect it to sound any different?

Don't pull a trigger on an amp yet. Wait for the ICS source to be released and maybe then you'll be able to go the DAC/AMP route through USB.

If you'd describe the difference to me I would have a clue what to look for :P

Yup. Scroll back a page or two. There's 5 similar threads on this.

I bought mine few years ago. Didn't have paypal back then. I sent him an envelope with the money :D

1. It's not possible. 2. They sound exactly the same :)

Stealthy in public. Can go to sleep wearing them. Very often are more detailed then full size cans. Isolation.

Quote: Uhh sorry. You'd need someone with both the iphone and gs1 + armature driver phones too clarify that...   As for the more powerful output on the voodoo's gs1, yea I guess the main benefit goes to high impedance cans.

Doubt 8ohm will be "problematic" but the word around here is that lower is better for armature drivers. On the other side the SG1  will have a  more powerful HP out vs IP4 for hard to drive cans almost diminishing the need for an amp on the go.

Ignore that graph regardless of voodoo. They used an outdated and flawed firmware. You ain't gonna see that bump shown on the graph for the SG1 with later frimwares. Should be flat even without voodoo. Can't comment on the cross talk but here's a link to an article which mentions...
