This all makes me curious about getting another output impedance measurement.
I dont really believe these 9 ohm output impedance.
I am using the UE 900 (4-driver BA), and used them on a Galaxy S3 (2 Ohm~). Now on my One m8 i dont really hear much of a difference, especially not in tonality.
I cant imagine the output impedance beeing more than 3-5 ohm, or even lower than that.
Also, on my Asus Phoebus (Texas instruments Amp, which has about 10 Ohm output impedance) i hear more difference in the sounding.
The ue900 usually get lower sub-bass volume level the higher the output impedance.
It has noticable lower subbass, than on the M8. The output impedance must be a bunch lower than 9-10 ohm.
So, i personally will ignore that, untill i see more independant measurements from others.
Anyway, i have ZERO complains, letting my One m8 drive the ue 900 properly.
(Edit: Or i am lucky, and the tonality changes due to 9,4 Ohm output impedance instead 0~ are on the ue900 so tiny, that its almost not hearable)
A noob here.
Can I use e07k's DAC with m8, via usb to usb? Is USB audio supported in m8?
Thanks.
May be the chinese unit is different in that regard.
Judging by gsmarena graph impedance should be no more than 2.
whenever i can i'll listen to a EU M8 with my UM3x to assess the tonal balance.
I have an audio crackles (mostly in left channel) while i`m listening music through my wired headphones Sennheiser HD 280 Pro (64 Ohm) or Beyerdynamic DT 770 Pro (80 Ohm).
Has anyone tried the stock earphones, are they any good?
The earphones that came with my Verizon M8 had way too much bass, IMO. It overshadowed the mids. Too bad, because they were reasonably clear otherwise.
Interesting, I still haven't open my stock earphones, been using my old Klispsh S4A instead and found the bass lacking. Maybe I should give these stock earphones a try.
I broke down and unpacked my HTC earbuds todayand I've been burning them in.
It's gonna take a while to reach a semblance of conclusion, but I want to say that the heavy bass is not unusual in any way, it's just an industry trend. Tthe earbuds Sony packs with their phones (the MH750) is just as thumpy. At first listen they both make you think they're surprisingly decent & surprisingly isolating too. But the actual mileage you get out of them, well... we'll see.
In a world where the bar for cheap earbuds has been raised beyond recognition, I wouldn't say either pair is a revelation. Will report back if there's any "development".
