Poweramp, IMO

I think I like Power amp better too
 

I've been playing with the new Meizu MX-Quad recently - it's obscenely fast. Makes my iPad2 feel sluggish in some ways. It also has SPDIF out via breakout box (coaxial connection) so it will work as a nice transport.

I'll post a link to my review when it is done.

I use SGS2. I have downloaded ICS for it. Made the Cyanogenmod 9. I have tried nearly all the music player software on the market.

Than I emove the Cyanogen 9 from my SGS2. Because it simply made the phone sound digitalised (lost the organic feel).

The best 2 apps for me are:

1. Stock android music player that installs itself directly while installing ICS (4.0.4) (EQ normal, use the Sound Clarity setting enabled).

2. RunHeadPhones (v.2.28) (EQ'ed).

For bass liker android users RunHeadPhones is a must have. It increases mid and sub bass without blocking the mids and highs (doing it without any apparent distortion).

I can clearly state that RunHeadPhones is the best android music player (IMO) for Samsung Galaxy S2.

Poweramp did not work for me. Even the player on the Cyanogenmod 9. They both sounded digitalised.

Also I have to say that my SGS2 sounds better than my Sansa Fuze (Rockboxed). I believe my SGS2 has the Wolfson chipped later version of this phone (previous versions used Yamaha sound chip).

Now that I've had my Pantech Burst for a few months I can say that its a really good phone.  It has never frozen or had any glitches and runs super smooth.  What I like most about the phone is the SQ it blows all my other pmp's away (Cowon J3, Fuze, Sony S series).  I never would have thought a phone could sound so much better than a dedicated music player, the clarity and soundstage are the best I've heard and with Poweramp its just awesome.  Some of my IEM's with small to average soundstage like the MG7 sound really nice on the Burst and the soundstage gets much wider and deeper.  I think its a really great phone and for $49 was an absolute steal.

If anyone knows what kind of sound card is in the Burst please post it because I've looked and I can't find anything about it.

Stupid T-Mobile giving ICS on the Note months later after Germany, France and UK already got ICS.

If you're using the n7000 im pretty sure there's a CM10.

It's cyanogen mod 10, which is a custom rom of jellybean. There's a release for the n7000, which is the model of the galaxy note. But since you havent rooted and arent very knowledgeable you should probably keep away since with the note you can screw up your device fairly easily. Official jellybean is going to take an extremely long while though.
Also what music players do you guys use? Currently im using ubermusic.
