Thats why i chose between either your mod, or no mod :P

Btw, what do you think about this? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=52294479

Not sure, if thats something like a beats audio copy

Well yea sure.

But Equalizers can only change the sound signature, but NEVER increase the sound quality.

Also, some headphones are not meant to be able to run every sound signature made by Equalizers. For example, you have cheap headphones, which sound very dull because of too low treble. You could raise the treble by an Equalizer, yes.. But it also can happen, that this treble will cause distortions and hiss, and sound like broken electronics (in the worst case of course).

And bloatet boomy bass will never be "tight" with EQ.

OF course, that all depends on how high your expectaions are.

But headphones for more than 20 bucks usually dont just sound better, they are better build (and can last for 20-30 years instead 1-3 years), and usually fit better due to better materials (high quality velour/microfiber instead cheaper synthetic leather.).

Im not saying only expensive ones are good, and everyone should buy that, im just saying, its worth if you listen to music alot.

My opinion in that case: i rather spend 150-300€ once, than 50€ every few years.

I mean... noone beats an eye when anyone buys a 400€ gamer graphic card every 2 years, just for playing Ultra instead of high :P
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Didn't I say a few posts back that we will never get h/k audio working due to incompatible chipset?? :p

If you look in lyapota's h/k audio enabler zip, it requires the hw audio libraries. That will mean that we will be unable to port it because the libraries are made specifically for the snapdragon 801 chipset.

FYI h/k is not a beats audio copy. That's just like saying SRS is a beats audio copy :P h/k's Clari-Fi effect reconstructs audio signal lost through compression (I.e mp3 files) by using advanced resampling algorithms. LiveStage - I'm assuming - is a virtualization effect (something close to SRS?) Not quite sure as I've never heard of it before...

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Darkseth:
Whoops, overlooked, that this is originally for the M7 :x

But.. on the M8 it works (on EVERY m8?), and it does improve audio quality, if the loss due to compression is too high?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikanoshi:
I buy 2 vcards 500€+ each every 1.5 years, but I don't even thought about upgrading my old 100$ AKG K319 :D Priorities.

Never understand how someone can use virtualization. For movies maybe? For music it's just terrible. And with lossless audio Clari-Fi will have nothing to reconstruct?))
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yes, read the changlog :p

Why don't you try the mod yourself? I can't say for sure what m8 users hear because I don't have the device!

Standard Virtualization, I cannot bear.

SRS effect I love due to the stereo bass effect coupled with xover filters and surround sound effect via HRTFs. But that's a personal preference - I got addicted to SRS back in the EVO 3D days and now I can never go back o_O

Also about Clari-Fi, that's what I suspect. It won't do much (or anything at all) for FLACs but it'll greatly help mp3s. It's kind of like the S-Master amplifier on my Sony MDR1-RNC, mp3s sound really nice with it! :D

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
This suits my internal debate perfectly

Guys, I know this is OT but its the place where there are most audio people here.. I am looking at a new pair of headphones to update from my klipsch Image One (over ear ones)

What I am looking at:

Sony MDR-1R MK2

Sony MDR-10R (which I tried in a shop with my m7 and LOVED them)

Today in a store, I tried what I thought was MDR1R MK2. They are $299 here (probably my limit) and look great. I tried them, sign said MDR1R (not MKII) and I loved them. Then, I put them down to look at what else they had.. noticed it didn't look like the 1R, then I read the text on the left ear to find it was MDR10R! $199 here

Then I tried MDR10RNC and wasn't too impressed.. it had no batteries though. Is S-master/dig EQ on when the switch for NC is off?

BUT

I found the MDR-1R MKII for $219

so they are basically the same price..

Any opinions on these?

Thanks in advance
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hans_Schlila:
As some people asked how to use Viper4A FX together with this mod, i decided to take a look at it after i've never used it on m7 but on my desire hd. To activate V4A fx, the app asks you to install some "drivers" and reboot the the system afterwards. When I compared the sound (quality) before and after this step, it definitely became worse, even though I hadnt ticked the enabeling checkbox in their interface yet, which seemed very intresting to me. However, I played around with all the options offered in "expert" mode, but I never made it to reach that certain "level" satisfying my ears like it is done by Zero :D (and I really experimented a few days long to try out different combinations of settings). The only thing, which was very very nice to test was "Haas Effect"-enabler. As far as I understood, left and right signal arrives with a delay-difference of about 20ms or so at each ear. The amount of delay could be determined in the settings. Basically that effect sounded most realistic in comparison to other similiar options chooseable in V4A FX. Connected to my car, it just sounded so incredible realistic at least in matters of surround feeling. (suggestion for next version :D, maybe script-controlled or via aroma, so that we dont need somebody to code an app and get in trouble with V4A developer team ;) )
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Have you tried MDR1-RNC MK2? They're basically the ones I have but upgraded ;)

S-Master + Digital Sound Enhancement Engine turn on when NC turns on.

I don't think MDR10RNC have S-Master/DSEE! That's probably why you aren't impressed by them!

Try the MDR1-RNC/MK2/RBT as those (afaik) have S-Master/DSEE.

Get the MDR1 series rather than the MDR10 series :p

Hass-Effect sucks ass imo. The stereo gets delayed too much and everything goes to the side! the vocals aren't at the centre of the stage anymore and that just sucks!

No idea how that effect sounds on speaker but they really sound bad on headphones. Everything sounds all pushed and cramped up to the side, leaving no vocals in the middle of the soundstage.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frankcck:
Sony MDR-1RBT MK2 is your best choice, if you don't care about NC.

I'd never thought about purchasing so expensive headphone before I fell into this mod...??

ViperOne@HTC One M8
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hans_Schlila:
Yeah, if you set delay time to high, those negative things you pointed out will be noticeable. But proper setting sounds amazing, especially on car loudspeaker systems or on stereos at home. And you easily could fit the effect's intensity personal needs by in-/decreasing delay time, so that the vocals i.e. dont get "stretched" to much to the sides. Of course headphones are a totally different topic, but as i mentioned, it should be an optional effect. And I think, people would really love it! Temporarily, that effect had been removed from V4A, but later on they reintegrated it in later versions, because so many people didn't stop complaining about that they removed it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Or wired (RNC) if you want the best audio quality with 50mm drivers :p (RBT and R both have standard 40mm ones :p)

2ms was default isn't it? yeah, that's the one I tired in the first place. No matter what I try, the stereo effect will sound "off" and the vocals will push aside :/

Ah well, no problem for me. I admit that V4a has many great features but when I usually spend up to an hour tuning it, I'll get headaches from constant music listening :S

For my personal experience: SRS FTW!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hans_Schlila:
:D according to this http://www.mixcoach.com/creating-depth-the-haas-effect-2/ , effect works with a delay between 1 and 35 ms, so for your liking, there is not much space left to the minimum (1ms), as default value is afaik 2ms, which means setting a lower value will disable the effect i suppose... But it would be so nice to see such stuff build into your mod, with which the user can experiment by himself and try different intensities, and Haas effect imo seems to be a very easy-to implement-effect ...as long as it doesnt come to coding an app ;))
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Yes, but my mod is only modding internal system files - there isn't a way create the Haas-Effect from that. You'll have to use v4a for it.

Either way, I'm not going to do the Haas-Effect, you can use v4a app instead.

SRS CSHP uses HRTFs to imitate 5.1ch surround sound perfectly, I've tuned Dolby (which is using CSHP) to make the 5.1ch stand out more using cinema decoding mode. There is definitely noise with Cinema mode but it's the best 5.1ch effect you're gonna get with stereo headphones.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Hans_Schlila:
...yeah but here the driver problem comes in. If you install V4A's "drivers" over Project Era, sound definitely gets worse, even if you actually hadn't activated the sound system in v4a app and just installed their "drivers".... So summarized: using both (installing viper ontop of yours) leads to less-extremly good sound, to which you are used through your mod normally.

Thats the cause I wanted you to think about integrating it, of course I can live without it, just wanted to suggest some ideas :))
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] steve1996:
MDR1-R actually sounds the same as MDR1-RNC powered off. When the MDR1-RNC is powered on, the sound signature changes dramatically, so you have to try it before you decide.

Just a warning, the MDR1-RNC doesn't have much bass when powered on, but everything else is pure awesome, like clarity and mid. In other words, this headphone isn't for those who love bass.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Oh yeah, forgot to say that bass is a bit quieter to compensate for clarity :) but when coupled with SRS effects, the bass sounds awesome!

Sent from mah haytch tee see Juan via crapatalk
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
But, MDR1RNC is out of my price range they're at least double the MDR1R MKII and the MDR10R

What's the difference between mdr10 and mdr1? I thought they were just cheaper materials

Bluetooth? :P they sound the same corded though, right?

Hmm okay

I'm not looking for baas I think.. Soundstage and clarity. I like my treble and I want that "full" sound
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] steve1996:
Well that's what the MDR1-R lacks lol. Treble isn't that good. But overall it's not bad. I got my MDR1-RNC for £199 in hmv by the way.

Wired headphones always sounds better than Bluetooth ones. Wired has lower latency and way less chance of stuttering.

I love to use my MDR1-RNC on the plane, it blocks so much sound even when taking off, feels like only the chair is shaking lol. When I take them off I feel like strong wind blowing in my ears, the difference is that big.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
Maybe I will have to find them somewhere.. lol

I haven't tried the MDR1-RNC, I doubt many stores would put out as $500 pair of headphones to try

wait you're in Hong Kong? How much are they over there?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] steve1996:
I remember the MDR1-RNC mkII is around £260 in Hong Kong. And I'm living in Canterbury UK now.[emoji1]

Ps. Read my edit on the above post.

And I've just got a boombass, it sounds so awesome, even better than my SRS-BTM8! Has great bass and treble, and bass not affecting clarity
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
ahh sheet thats still $480...........

ok saw the edit, thats my opinion on bluetooth always :P But, I have ~80% MP3 and only ~20% FLAC :) One of my best friends has the old version of MDR1RNC (can't remember what theyre called) he got them in the US for heaps less than the Australian RRP

They sound great, and have the awesome noise cancelling I was amazed when it was on..
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
Yeah I think it has support for wires anyway. So the bluetooth is a waste of moneys :P Will I look like an idiot walking around with headphones and no cord? :D:D:D:D:D

Are you talking about MDR1 RNC or just MDR1R?

Kernel for m8? 95% chance of no :( Because I don't want to do one blind, because I like to test releases for a few days before release. I am still under contract with m7, it expires next year (m9 time)

I can't really afford/justify the $800+ on a phone thats more or less very similar, unfortunately

I might get a OnePlus One, will have to see though. Its the same price as the headphones :D

I am shopping around.. by the sounds of it then, you guys all recommend the MDR1RNC ($500 one) even though it costs double? I am happy with the MDR10R :) I'll have to try them all, and shop around because originally the MDR1R MKII at $300 was my limit
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] frankcck:
I'm using the MDR-1RBT MK2, save your money for m9 instead 1+1? I can follow you then ?

Imo, walking with headphone without wired isn't silly or strange. That looks good at least not bad =b

Well, I actually bought mine around $300 in Japan ??

ViperOne@HTC One M8
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] poondog:
yeah with all the sheet thats happening with OnePlus, I don't think it would be a good idea.. if I do get one it will not be for another ~2 months, and by then we can see reviews etc I am looking for audio quality (which apparently they concentrated on) and camera. From what I know, m9 focuses a lot on both

haha, just cause you do it :P Yours seems to be everything the MDR-1RRNC is, without the NC and the 50mm driver?

edit: Also, why is Sony the most popular here? :)

If you want to include other headphones in your decision try the beyerdynamics 880 pro and 990 pro.

I'm really happy with them.

They are the most comfortable headphones I ever had. I can listen a few hours to music without having the feeling of wearing headphones.

You should also try out the 880 for more balanced sound

[MENTION=4379011]poondog[/MENTION], you might be able to find MDR1-RNC (original ones which I own, not MKII) somewhere on the web for a decent price (^__^) Retail stores will sell them for around £300-£400 (excluding HMV in England) but I got mine for £280 on Amazon :D they keep on changing the price when I was about to buy them! Could of got it for £260 if I brought it quicker. Oh wait, you can get it for £224 now!

psychorealism vs infinitesound whats better? :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
IMO Psyhcorealism as it provides more bass than normal beats audio but not overpowering bass.

InfinitySound boosts treble making it sometimes a bit "tinny" on a few treble-sensitive headphones.

If you have treble sensitive headphones or headphones with lack of bass, choose PsychoRealism. If you have DJ overpowering bass headphones (Or headphones which sounds 'muddy') then choose InfinitySound as it will make the audio a lot clearer.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] nightwind84:
I use headphones original HTC one ... what do you think is better?

with this mod beats audio needs to be kept off? or activated only when I use the One speaker? and why? I did not understand :)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] arses:
Hey guys

Is there any direct link?

Thanks

sent by myself without help :))
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
I'd say, use InfinitySound for the stock original HTC One earbuds ;)

My beats audio tweaks only works for headphones/Bluetooth/AUX but NOT for speakers. You need to turn on beats audio and listen to music though headphones to hear the beats audio tweak. Beats Audio will sound the same when used on speakers.

It is your choice to turn on Beats Audio, if you want the best audio quality (example: No distortions, no audio clipping, no noise etc.) with the 'cleanest' sound than turn off all audio effects and listen to normal audio with no effects. If you want a more 'enhanced audio experience' (example: Increased bass, treble, vocals etc.) than turn on Beats Audio.

Why do you need a direct link? Both of the links in the OP are fine!
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] de.dari:
Since you guys are taking earphones, headphones just checking if anyone use this mod with Klipsch s4a? Mine one with foam buds rocks. I am still to find a ideal eqs for it. Keep turning v4a on and off but the beats tweaks are a must.

Great mod.

[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] Mikanoshi:
Where did you even get those files? I doubt byte hack is possible with such closed source images. From other Beats devices?

Absolutely no difference between them and stock for me...
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
PsychoRealism is using Beats Box profile and InfinitySound is using Beats wireless profile. All I did was rename the profiles to gec ones so they load by default :D

There is a difference in both profiles, I've tried them numerous times before. InfinitySound definitely sounds more 'tinny' than psychorealism. Volume is definitely louder - that's a huge difference you can't miss

EDIT: You'll only notice differences if you aren't using either beats by Dr dre headphones/earphones or stock HTC max 300 earbuds as they don't activate gec profile

!

The Klipsch s4a's are a great mid-range headphone. I've had a couple pairs...the only drawback for me is the thin wire. I went from them to the Shure 315's after my second pair started shorting out. My Shure in-ear heaphones through my Bad Boyz HTC One (m7), GoneMAD music player w/ ZeroInfinity mod is mindblowing!

...but now I'm itching for the Harman/Kardon m8 ;)
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] steve1996:
As for in-ears I fully recommend the rha ma750, it sounds way better than other in-ear headphones in that price range like the shure and Bose ones, and of course the beats ones.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] BodhiBrock:
Thanks for the tip. I did alot of research before settling on the se315's...but what it came down to was availability. I wasn't about to or able to (blame it on my A.D.D.) wait for shipment and Guitar Center was the closest location for upper-end audio devices. I had the se215 once before and found them to be quite decent so I figured I would up my game to the se315's...not my 1st choice but I'm happy with them nonetheless. Now I'm curious about the Harman/Kardon headphones that come with the m8 H/K edition HTC One.

Also, 'Comply' foam tips will change your life!!11!

Normal, Maximum edition, ultimate edition is for speaker volume increase. These options don't change bluetooth headset quality ?
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Those are optional add-on for Speakers. I have added an option to skip the tweaks...

If you read the AROMA installer page for IntenseBLAST (The speaker boost add-on), you will see that it says "Speaker volume boost" It doesn't do anything else. All it does is increase speaker volume.

Again, it's just an add-on, you can choose the skip it.

Sadly I've had this problem on Insertcoin both sense 5.5 and sense 6 too. I've dirty flashed the rom just today to remove the mod due to mic not working.

But then I faced an issue with songs not seeking and songs got stopped after they go to certain mins. I then deleted:

/data/audio/persist.htc.audio.pcm.samplerate

/data/audio/persist.htc.audio.pcm.bitsize

files and rebooted and seeking prob was fixed. I deleted those files since a dirty flash wouldn't touch those data files from the mod so I thought that would fix the seeking problem.

Sad to leave such an awesome soundmod and would help if I can to resolve it.
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ZeroInfinity:
Those files in the soundmod works fine for everyone else, I've not heard once of a "seeking" audio issue before with my soundmod :S
[HTC 10 Themes, Apps, and Mods] ilamaan:
Its only happening when we dirty flash your soundmod and not flash it back.

What I mean is I wanted to remove your mod so I dirty flashed my rom and never flashed the soundmod. But then, those files are modified by your mod right? And that means if I dirty flash the rom those files won't return to stock since its in the data partition.
