++ FULL-SIZE HEADPHONE RECOMMENDATIONS THREAD++ CLOSED: Please post a thread in the Introductions, Help and Advice forum
Quote: Hey KG - They're very much like the Triple Fi 10's - laid back in the treble, warm midrange, decent bass. I've auditioned a bunch of headphones now, from GS1000 to M50 - and the only that sounds "similar" to what I'm after is the Beyerdynamic DT770Pro (the black ones) - are...- PooJou

Quote: Unequivocally yes. I've got a Galaxy S here which has a piddly 512mb of ram as well - and it runs ICS completely fine. What slows anything built on Android down = fancy transitions / applications. I'm unwilling to accept that people are simply "ok" with poor design / poor...- PooJou

Quote: I honestly don't understand why, in today's market, people are prepared to accept a DAP that has less than fantastic functionality - even if it is for "listening to music" only. To split hairs in this department, especially when they've built it ON TOP of Android is kinda moot...- PooJou

The hardware looks great on this - but my god forking 2.3.x for an mp3 player? Nahh!! I wonder why they didn't go plain ICS or JB - it looks as if all their "apps" are just widgets on a stock launcher anyway? Also did I mention it's ugly :( - really love the hardware tho (again)- PooJou
