It seemed OK but leaned towards a tinnier tone.
I tried it out with Mein Hertz Brent and it was lacking a lot of bass. Did try some of the software amp stuff from winamp .. but it distorts/crackles horribly.
Is this just winamp (I couldnt find anything else to try except wmp which was very quiet even on max) or is the sound quality not that great?
BIGGEST question of all ..
Is it better than the XDAii or not? If the XDAii is better I will .. in lieu of all the other issues with wm5 .. sell the exec and buy an XDAii.
(G)
Yes experience is the same, light on bass. I even tried WMA DRM music as well as MP3 but still seemed to lack bass. But the rest of the frequency range was reproduced with good clarity. It is a problem for me as my Exec has now the poorest quality sound reproduction when compared to my Palm LifeDrive and Nokia 9500.
Hmm. I should add this is using a good quality set of stereo headphones.
How annoying. That means I need a seperate ipod and another set of headphones .. Grrr.
Think the IPAQ has very good sound quality? Anyone compared them?
Greetings and salutations all.
Here is my problem. I have HBH-300 bluetooth handsfree and the sound quality of this hf is superior (to my taste) to any other I have tried.
This, however is not the case with it connected to TyTN. The sound quality of the earpiece is very poor (like all the f's and s's gets badly distorted). I have tested TyTN with 3 other bt hf:s (Nokias and Jabra) without any problems with the sound quality. The mic quality appears to be the same as with other phones according to the other person of the phone calls.
I've tried modify the registry acording to the idea of enhancing the stereo bt sound quality (tho this is just a mono hf) and tried to lower the value of the bluetooth speaker, but no luck.
So, any idea if there's anything for me to try to be able to use my beloved HBH-300 or is it just the Nokia/Jabra way from now on ?
When I'm trying to listen mp3 music via earphonse (orginal from qtek s200) the quality of sound is terrible (much worse then via speaker). Why is that? How can I fixed this?
Regards
The quality of the original earphone is low, but the speaker is worse, so you have a problem, there.
1) Try to adjust the volume, if it's too high the sound may be distorted.
2) Use another earphone to check if the problem is the output jack or the earphone.
3) I use a 2.5 mm to 3.5 mm adapter with a high-quality earphone, and the sound is great. So buying an adapter and upgrading the earphone might be a good idea anyway if you're a serious music listener.

Any of you using the Desire HD with a BT Stereo Radio and/or stereo headset. The sound quality sounds really bad to me. I had the same thing on my HD2 @ default settings, but fixed that by changing the linespeed in registry. (bitpool on older WM phones)
Have been googling and can't find anything of the sort for Android. Is there a way to fix the audio quality?
My brother has the SE Xperia X10 and it has way better AD2P audio quality, even though it's still android 1.6. So it's not an Android bug, but rather a driver/setting somewhere.
Also the range the BT has is really small, I have a Logitech Pure-Fi Mobile speaker, which connects through BT AD2P, the quality is lower then on my HD2 (after tweaking) and the range is only 5-7m, while the HD2 managed to have skipless playback and higher quality at over 15-20m...
Apart from this I'm really loving the phone . And my car radio has full support for the other BT features. Like skipping tracks (in Spotify) and dialing numbers via the address book on my car radio instead of on my phone. And see who's calling on my radio's display.

Hi there, I'm really interested in that too. Would you say it's just a slight problem of the sound quality or is it merely unusable?
If you use Bluetooth headset you can forgive about good music quality. that's all
if you need good quality audio in bluetooth, buy this:

Won't really help at all, as I need to connect it to my car audio.

You can compare the quality with 96Kbps MP3 which is really bad imho, but still usable. It's about the same on many phones though, allmost all are set to max 31 bitpool... But with windows mobile it was an easy fix.
As the source code is out, I hope the ROM builders can soon find a way to fix this.
Hi
I use a pair of plantronics 590e headphones over A2DP and the quality is brilliant! I have not changed a thing in the setup.
I wont play anything lower than 192kbs (most of my mp3 are 320kps) as i am a real fussy git when i comes to audio.
I have used the standard music player and tunewiki and both are perfect!
Are you atchaly using the A2DP or standard mic and mono sound protcal for calls?

My MM200 Sennheiser work flawless. Music is rich and crisp!
You won't know the difference if you haven't heard the difference between bitpool 31 and bitpool 58, it's like night and day to me. Even 256kbps MP3 sounds bad to me tho.
Tried different audio files and it's not spotify causing it. As my brother is also plaything through spotify at HQ settings (which is 160Kbps OGG, comparable with 320+ Kbps MP3) ...
Eagerly waiting for an AD2P fix for android.
When I have my HD playing music through my Car's Bluetooth the quality is also pretty poor.
For some reason I can't choose any of the EQ settings? If I could just try and add some treble I think I could put up with it!
Just tried playing music via bluetooth to my sony head unit in the car and it became so choppy it was painful to even try to listen to it.
Great phone but really disappointed that there is a problem like this as one of the main uses of my phone is for audio in the car.
I use a Sony Ericsson mw600 and the quality is not good. The same headset with my sisters itouch and it sounds great. Is this a hardware or a software issue?

You must be careful with the mw600 that it connects in the correct mode. As headphones NOT headset for music. If you get it wrong it will sound awful. You can check by tapping the Mic during playback, if you can hear it through the headphones you have it set up wrong

i had exact earphone, but it's just awful. first of all; htc doesn't make me choose any sound enhancements, other thing is, my 320kbps musics aren't different from 96 at all.
ps. i am an audiophile.
Imanaged to find my old iTech BlueBand headset yesterday and gave that a go. Sound quality was loud and clear and well balanced.
Shame about the delay though - it's worse than I'm used to. Video is pointless as the lag on the audio is far too much to be bearable.
The only 'probem" I've encountered with the N4 is the sound quality of phone calls using bluetooth hands free link in my Acura. My wfe has same issue in her Mercedes. We sound very tinny or robotic. Our previous GN devices had a much richer sound. Can the sound be tuned somehow to sound more natural?
I don't know about tuning it, but the Bluetooth quality is terrible. Everyone I speak with sounds scratchy?
My Bluetooth Headphones sound fantastic.
I don't have bkluetooth in the car. So?
I also have audio quality issues with bluetooth audio quality in my car. Loud high-frequency sounds seem distorted or something like that. It's very distracting.
I'm coming from a Nexus S where I never had such issues.
Here's a bug report regarding bluetooth audio quality (A2DP): http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=39632
I'm not sure if it also covers bluetooth phone call audio quality.
I use Sony mw600's to stream audio over Bluetooth. Great sound, exceptional distance and pretty damn good battery life for stereo Bluetooth.
I voided my warranty.
