Samsung Galaxy S Sound Quality - Page 2

thank you for trying that out. Unfortunately, from what I read, the GP and SGS will have virtually the same hardware. Maybe that will change.  I was expecting it to be much better than the M6.

keep in mind I haven't installed voodoo, which may make that little difference, and what's the SQ difference between the m3 and the m6, is the m6 sw slightly better sq than the m3 anyway?
Also, the sgs is a great little gadget with many other uses. In particular it's customizability.

I'll PM you so we don't hijack this thread.

Anyone knows whether the same tweaks for the SGS will apply to the Galaxy Ace?

WOW It's literally 10 times better and louder (about twice, 1.5x the m6's loudest) and more powerful, don't even need my fiio e5, the bass (3x bassier than m6, when turned up) is literally shaking my drivers just as my desktops Creative Audigy 4 does! My jaw literally dropped at the improvement! Beats the M6 SQ by more than double.

i got the voodoo control plus on my sgs. it drastically improved the sound compared to stock. dont know what supercurio did but man is it amazing. sounds almost on par with my cowon x7. overall dynamic range is excellent. lovin it

you should put voodoo on there as well to see if it improves it even more.

voodoo is only for the android devices; samsung galaxy S and tab

The SGS sound quality is superb.

Voodoo is a must. If you don't won't to mess with kernels and rooting your phone then pay 4$ for the Voodoo Control Plus.

Just wondering what you guys use to make the sound quality better. 
IE: apps? EQ?

 

many thanks to those who chime in :)

i have been playing and following project voodoo since it began and they are now at version 5.5.3. It is essentially a kernel that applies a lagfix specifically for the samsung galaxy s. apply that with darky's rom you have yourself one of if not the best built in headphone amplifier! The application is configurable. I use the stock samsung music player which has an equaliser and listening modes. It is sensational.. why? ** voodoo uses the wolfson WM8994 headphone amplifier code stack. contact me if you need more info! enjoy!

I'm very glad of sgs's sound quality, I bought the hippo vb earphones for bass and I didnt really feel satisfied when I used it with my sony x1000 (the sound quality overall is awesome though), but with sgs and poweramp with the tone setting on it really feels like I have a pair of awesome quality subwoofers attached to my head! :D

I would love to hear someone do a comparison for myself as in the near future I think i'll be shopping for a new DAP...

Depends on what amp and phones you're using...

With my e5, after installing voodoo kernel, it added more hissing noise from the amp than before. But if I crank the bass up and lower the pre-amp in PowerAMP, the e5 does help to increase the max volume. This is with my ATH-M50, and the more portable/easier to drive phones will show less of a difference amped/un-amped.

Generally speaking though after you've voodoo'd your phone, you don't need an amp, unless you crave head crushing bass at LOUD volumes.. or if you're using higher impedance headphones, but whatever you do just please be careful with your eardrums...

But honesty, how does it compare to what other people use ? (those sansa+ rockbox/ipod touch LOD/Cowan j3?)

and does it make it much difference if I plug an external amp on it?
