So I busted out my HTC Droid DNA, my old Thunderbolt an Iphone 5s, my M8, a LG G2, and a Galaxy s5(work at a verizon store) today and did some non scientific testing today at work. I found that the M8 sounded the best to my ears. The iphone 5s came in second place and the thunderbolt in last place. Now I am no audiophile by any measure of the word. I just got into headphones and have been listening a lot lately. I used a couple of different headphones. I used my Sennhieser Momentums, my Bose QC2's, my Monster Urbeats IE(old came with a rezound that I returned as I would never pay money for beats...) and the Boomsound ie's that came with my M8. I listened to Tool, NIN, Metallica, Pantera, Rolling Stones and Soundgarden and with all of them the M8 stood out to me. The Iphone 5s was good, just not quite as good as the M8. The others just didnt have as much volume or clairity as those two did. I myself cant stand anything apple and would never ever own anything with that logo on it except maybe an oldschool apple 2. It was hard for me to admit that the Iphone almost topped the M8 but it did sound really good. I know this is my own personal preference but I hope it helps someone. Anyone lol. I listened to each for about 20-30 minutes except for the thunderbolt because it was an obvious difference that is immediately noticable. The DNA has pretty good sound but I dont like the way the "beats audio" jacks up the eq. Anyway since I work at the store I do I can test any new phones that come out just about as soon as they come out. If anyone would like me to just send me a PM and I will be happy to but again I am no audiophile so I dont know if I can deliver the terminology right if I do test something for someone. Cheers. T
