    The IEM/Portable Headphones Deal Alerts Thread - Closed! Use the Deals Thread III instead.

    Quote: They go for as cheap as $5 plus another $5 for shipping if you're patient and wait for the deals to come through places like Amazon I've purchased a number of sets to give away as they are pretty nice. Soooooo they are not fakes BTW. However, that being said, I thought the Philip...

    Samsung Galaxy S Sound Quality

    It blows away most anything I've compared to, much better than an ipod, imho. Two apps to look for - neutron and google's new audio app. I assume you already have the newest Voodoo app. If you root your Samsung (which you must for voodoo) and use one of the mods (I use cyanogen), the batttery...

    Samsung Galaxy S and video

    Quote: Definite nowhere near the 7hr mark or even half that time IMO.   If you have purchased yours alreay, have you had a chance to look into Voodoo Control Plus and Wolfson WM-8994 codec? I have a Samsung Galaxy S phone (Fascinate) loaded with Android 2.21, phone is rooted, with...

    Samsung Galaxy S Sound Quality

    Look more into Voodoo Control Plus and the Wolfson WM-8994 codec? I have a Samsung Galaxy S phone (Fascinate) loaded with Android 2.21, phone is rooted, with Voodoo Control Plus and Neutron Audio player. The Voodoo app has a headphone boost, negating the need for an external amp. Works...

    Samsung Galaxy S Sound Quality

    Quote: Careful using Darky's stuff if you have Verizon. I toasted my Samsung until I found a way to fix it but it was a scary week.

    Which Smartphone has great sound quality? Moto Droid, Nexus 1, HTC Desire

    BTW, our BJ Wholesale stores in CT (probably elsewhere as well) have a buy one get one free deal on the "old" Samsung Fascinate in July. One heck of a deal on a hand-held computer that can play awesome music, aside from answering your calls.

    Which Smartphone has great sound quality? Moto Droid, Nexus 1, HTC Desire

    Quote: Look into Voodoo Control Plus and Wolfson WM-8994 codec, supposedly applicable on many droid phones. I have a Samsung Galaxy S phone (Fascinate) loaded with Android 2.21; phone is rooted, with Voodoo Control Plus and Neutron Audio player. The Voodoo app has a headphone boost...

    Needing a new portable source.

    If you can get your hands on a droid phone, you have the makings of a superior mp3 player as the thing is essentially a hand-held computer. I have a droid phone loaded with Voodoo Control and the Neutron Audio player. Provides unbelievable sound quality and no amp needed as the Voodoo app has a...

    Help with finding a good MP3

    If you use a droid-type phone, that has the makings of a really good mp3 player. I was going the Cowon route until I upgraded my phone to a Samsung Galaxy S type phone. I discovered that by installing Voodoo sound control and Neutron player, the sound quality is unbelievable, with no amping...

    Got problem with my Sunrise Xcape. Seeking for help.

    The case or shell of my x-cape came apart a while back when I was removing the entire piece from my ear, exposing the inside. From what I could remember, there is this tiny speaker with two thin wires soldered to it and luckily I did not damage them and needed to close the shell snugly and be...

    Review by 'jlopes89' on item 'Shure SE210 Sound Isolating Earphones (White)'

    Though expensive, the more I listen to them, the more I like them. Many have complained about the "lame" bass but this can be improved by finding a good fitting ear tip piece and then the bass emerges very nicely. I use these with the microphone attachment from my 102s and they work well as both...

    Review by 'jlopes89' on item 'Sw-Xcape'

    Impressed with the sound overall, balanced throughout the frequency range (bass is tight, medium to high frequencies not bad but I still think my Shures are better in the mid to high). That being said, the build is very worrisome - the right shell came apart exposing the tiny speaker and had to...

    Review by 'jlopes89' on item 'Beats by Dr. Dre Tour In-Ear Headphones'

    Bought these to compare with my other IEMs. I have found that one can modify the bass content by changing the tips and I got them to he point where it was less bass but the high freqency performance is somewhat poor considering the price one pays for these. looking to trade now.
