Hi guys


What about the Asus Zenfone 2 (ZE551ML)?

I already have the AKG K545 and Y50 headphones.

Cheers!

Had it. Not audiophile. Good for V4A as a sound enhancer, but on it's own, low volume at max and mediocre sound quality.

Axon 7's first teaser video focuses on device's sound quality

"Nextbit worked with the French audio enhancement company Arkamys to improve the signal processing software, and it's instantly noticeable — in a good way. Music from both the front-facing speakers and the headphone jack sounds fuller, more separated and cleaner. This carries well when turning the volume up, and even at maximum levels you'll appreciate clearer (and louder) sound"

Guys, I just copied my HD music library into my new HTC 10.
Which is the best player for Android in your opinion?
The files are FLAC from 16/44 up to 24/192.

Thanks!

Let them first fix the high res support of the ZTE Axon mini
Also I haven't heard from their costumer support for two weeks. I'll send them another message...

  Hey guys, been following this thread for quite awhile. I need some advice on a new buy.
 
So if you had to make a choice between these phones, keeping in mind that sound quality for headphones is the main concern here which would you choose out of these:
 
HTC One M8
Asus Zenfone 2
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro
LG G4
One Plus One
Huawei Honor 6
Huawei Honor 5X
Lenovo K4 Note
 
Thanks for the input!

 
I'm using the Honor 6 and it's not an audiophile phone. The sound is clean and serviceable, but lacks dynamics and does not handle soundstage well. There's a DTS switch which enhances treble, bass and widens soundstage, which can be fun. Biggest flaw is the volume button can only go from 0 to 15, so one click and the volume increases by a big increment. It's okay for a quick listen. Oh yeah, it's not Mojo compatible and I've tried 3 cables with it. Music from the Honor 6 > Mojo is choppy and unlistenable.

I have a ZE551ML and that was not the answer I wanted, hahaha!
 
Actually I noticed that the sound quality was better with my earlier Microsoft Lumia 640 XL than the current ZF2.
 
By the way, there's someone else out there with Zenfone 2?
 
 
Cheers.
