IMO very often companies intentionally make less-expensive products sound worse than they normally would to encourage people to buy pricier items, which didn’t seem to be the case with this particular Android phone.

I got a free (NuuMobile) Android phone last summer and after loading it with some well-recorded (Chick Corea Elektric Band) mp3s and the Sound ID app, was *very* impressed with the sound quality. It had a headphone out jack and I used some 50 dollar Sony earbuds (mdr-xb50ap) that were supported...

there’s absolutely nothing wrong with them I’m just bored with them. I was looking for the Grado SR-60x in trade.

The unit is in good shape. I had noticed a (very) slight “ticking” noise when adjusting the volume, and wasn’t going to sell it, but I noticed the same with my brand new K5Pro ESS so it might be normal for this kind of volume control. Price includes shipping.

Need to sell after upgrading to Modi 3E. Ships in Modi 3E box with accessories.

I've had 3 EJ-011's and I've been happy with them (apart from their relatively short life-span). One thing I've noticed: the sound quality with no Megabass enabled is quite thin. Megabass SND1 seems to bring the sound quality up to normal, and SND 2 gives a nice effect, especially with my...

I'm just into my second Sony D-EJ011. I can't find any fault with the sound quality. If you're worried about the demise of PCDPs I'd pick up a few. Can be found for +/- 30 dollars

Several years ago I had read somewhere on the 'net an article about preventing hearing loss. The advice was (to paraphrase) when you started to feel a slight discomfort while listening to music (usually from headphone use) or any type of aural fatigue you should stop listening for 3 days to...

I just wanted to share my experiences with my Sony NWZ-S544. I have Winamp Pro and after experimenting with the different formats I discovered that the Sony will (seemingly) play just about any MP4 file out there. I doesn't officially support it, the file won't load using the bundled Sony...

Sorry to see such a nice guy as Paul getting skewered like this. I sent my Sony SACD player to him because the redbook playback seemed harsh to my ears, and I was blown away when I got it back. I saw a review in audio asylum that said the same thing as i experienced. Mind you, I read the review...

I've had both my Sony SCD-CE595 SACD player and STR-DG500 receiver modded by TRL and I am very, very happy with the results for both units. I firmly believe all the "so-called" hype about his mods and my experience is that he is very friendly and patient regarding business matters. I did...

Just a warning... i won't be checking back on replies to this one frequently. I just wanted to share my recent experience with compression formats. I had some cds that sounded a bit harsh; i.e. causing aural fatigue when listening to them. I tried converting them to mpc using foobar2000 using...
