Sorry if this is not the best place to have this discussion (but I am new to this arena).
I have an iPod touch 2g, I believe, and a pair of ATH-M50. I love listening to music on my laptop because I can eq it (I have an HP and have the Beats sound eq... I know, I know... Beats, sorry). But I really do like it. I listen to a lot of hip hop so it works. I don't really like listening to music on my iPod touch because the eq on it just doesn't cut it. Now that the battery on my iPod cant hold a charge for longer than an hour, I need to get something new to play music on.
I am thinking of getting a smartphone to replace my iPod. However, I am looking for a similar sound experience to my computer. I am by no means a audiophile, I just like good sounding music, not to the pickiest detail like some of you guys but I like good sounding music.
Any suggestions on phones? or ways to go at this?
My budget is about $200.
I am either thinking a newer model phone but getting it used. Or getting an older model phone with a portable headphone amp. (I just don't know how much the technology has improved)
Any tips or things I should look for would be greatly appreciated.
I also would like to be able to get the newer music apps so I don't know how much being able to have the current android os is, but I like Pandora, Spotify, radio apps for sports games etc. But that is probably a whole other topic.
***(((( I do have 1 requirement, it has to have a REMOVABLE BATTERY ))))****
Thanks for any feedback.
And again I apologize if this is not really the place to be having this conversation.
