Hi
 
 
Is anyone using their Westone UM3X on the new Samsung Galaxy S?
On another forum this problem is happening with a lot of different types of phones,,,
[size=medium]When you plug the 3.5mm jack out to a headphone device [/size](any headphone)

- Headphone frequency response is modified.
My ears would say approx :
+6db from 35 to 200hz
-2db for 500hz to 5khz
+6db from 10khz to 12khz
+3db from 12 to 16khz

The result sounds like a strong loudness filter.
And you can say good bye to most of voice definition, instrument musicality, sound stage, stereo image and... listening pleasure
I want to know if any of you have had this problem with the Westone UM3X and the Samsung Galaxy S.
 
I really want to get these phones but need to have this concern answered first.
 
Thanks

My Nexus One is great for SQ. As far as I know there is no standard EQ for the music player on Android so I'm not sure, unless Samsung added their own media player with an EQ or something.
