Hey guys,
Alright i just got a new iphone 3gs. I had always been hesitant to buy ipods/iphones cause I have never been able to get a decent bass response out of them. I currently use a meizu m6 miniplayer with ue superfi 5 pros or sennheiser hd595 w/ ibasso t2 amp. The same exact files have a night and day difference in bass response on the iphone and meizu. The best way I could describe it is the iphone bass beats sound like a wimpy pff with a bit of distortion where the meizu has a clear, deep and detailed response. I listen to all types of music, but its most apparent with bass heavy music (hip hop, dance, techno, and rock)
It seems so counter intuitive that apple would ignore sound quality after several generations of mp3 players (and also a 3 year old 50 dollar mp3 player would have such better sq). I searched around on these forums for an answer, but couldn't find anything. Also, I have tried fiddling with the equalizer presets on the iphone to no avail.
Now I would like to know if anyone else has noticed this or gotten around it somehow.
Thanks!
