Hi,
I just got my first pair of bluetooth stereo headphones - Sony DR-BT10CX.
How much interference is normal for BT stereo headphones? When the music is playing i don't really notice it unless its a quiet part of the song.
Inbetween music though there's noticeable background noise, kinda like noise on a telephone.
Is this normal for BT headphones or for this model??
Also i need to get an equaliser, bass isn't strong enough. Other than that though i'm pleased.
I'm currently listening through lobster tunes streamed from my desktop - even though im sat at my desktop typing this lol. yeh just because i can
cheers
There is some background hiss, but when I've music playing I can't hear it at all, but then I'm not fussy for £17!
Hi.
Sometimes sound becomes distorted when i play mp3s. I use the handsfree that came with the phone.
When sound gets distorted....if i lower the volume ...about 2 bars lower sound becomes clear but volume is to low...
When everything is ok, i can set the volume all the way up without any distortion. I play the same song to make the test.
I tried with another motorola handsfree (it plays in mono) and when there is sound distortion, i can hear it with the motorola handsfree too...so i don't think that is a headphones issue.
I'm using deathnoise's rom...i was using another...but i had the same issue.
Can i do something?
Thanks!...
Edit:
Two examples of distorted and clean sound. Recorded from the headphones' output of qtek 2020i to PC.

I've been using Sennheiser CX-300 II's since I got the phone, but there's a clearly audible hiss when you plug them in, so I'm looking for something new. They don't need to have a remote or anything, I just want decent quality sound and minimal static hiss. My budget is up to 100€.
What I've been looking at is the Klipsch Image S4 or S5 (although the latter is stretching my budget a bit). Does anyone have any experiences with the HD2+ S4 combo?
I've been using Klipsh S2i and they are decent,
now got Shure Se315 and they are AWESOME, but a bit pricey (also you can change the kevlar cable with the one that has remote as earbuds have a bit dif construction than anything I had so far)
what I want to say is: HD2 sound quality isn't good even with EQ, my iPod touch has better bass and song are clearer than on HD2...
Maybe you got some fake cx 300. Check this thread anythingbutipod. com/forum/showthread.php?t=8392
They're genuine Sennheisers, that isn't the issue.
They work perfectly fine with other sources so it's just a mismatch with the HD2 and the CX-300 II's. I've tested the phone out with other headphones (Shure SRH-840, Koss PortaPro) and there was no hiss. With a proper source there's no hiss with the CX-300 II's either so it's all down to the phone not handing the earbuds correctly.
Bought today sennheiser cx 500, works perfectly w/ hd2.
Strange, I also have the CX300-II's
Sounds absolutely perfect on my HD2, and yes, I worked in a audio production studio so I am not deaf.

Could you test something out for me?
Play a song on the Sense music tab at a reasonable volume (over 50% for this test's purpose) and then hit pause. Can you hear a hiss for a few moments after you pause the song? For me there's a short period of hissing after which I assume the phone cuts power to the output so the hiss disappears. If I play a song the hiss is always on the background and it's incredibly annoying on quiet, mellow songs or audio books because I hear it all the time. It isn't really an issue with loud songs tho as the hissing is drowned out, but I digress.
I just tested out my Sennheiser HD 650's with the phone and there was absolutely zero hiss.

Because that is a headphone,and not a earbud
What does that have to do with anything? I know they're not earbuds.

Ok tested it but on Android which is basically the same.
I also hear 'hissing' but basically it is just the amplifier which cuts off after about 2 seconds of no output being detected.
It is not loud at all but I think that the Sennheiser has a lower output volume at the same setting which will offcourse also diminish the noise to background level.
Thanks for testing it out for me.
The reason I mentioned the HD 650's was because there simply isnt any hiss at any volume settings. I tried playing a track that starts out with a long stretch of silence and I couldnt hear any hissing even when the volume was maxed out. With the earbuds the hiss is clearly audible even at 20% volume.
Hi,
I've got beautiful Sennheiser Momentum's here and I've got a problem. They make scratchy noises in higher pitches, say slow or silent songs with high voices. This happens with Beats off at the last two volume settings and with Beats On even before that. The same mp3 does not sound scratchy when I play it over my PC with the same headphones plugged in. It's defnitely the phone because the In ears that came with the phone sound equally scratchy at exact the same volumes.
Is there any way to equalize the standard audio settings without having to use another audio player? I am running ARHD 31.6 and tried it with and without PureXAudio, doesn't change anything.
I reset my phone now to make sure the XAudio-stuff isnt flying around, but the problem remains. But I think I found the culprit, the particular song where you can hear it really good simply seems to be too low on volume in the file itself - i can barely endure other songs at that volume, very loud, so I think the song has a low db and the htc just isn't that good when it comes to making songs loud and so it starts to scratch. Is there any way or EQ that can fix that or a normalizer?
I have noticed that my phones speaker was louder and better clarity on first use but after that it went downhill from there. My phone is currently in for repair due to a total speaker failure after the phone got really hot while using a CM 10.2 ROM, do not know if that was the reason but that was the ROM I was using at the time.
Well my best guess is that the built in EQ isn't the best out there and causes screeching in some frequencies. I can't notice anything in most of the songs but there are some which are problematic constantly and they are 320kbps and sound fine on my pc.
Hi, just got my nexus 6 and noticed that the top speaker is louder than the bottom speaker was just wondering if this was normal also the speakers become distorted on some music but is fine on other.
Wondering what yoir experiance is with the speakers.
My speakers sound perfectly uniform no volume differences between the two. I haven't really experienced any distortion but I suppose it would really depend on what type of music you are playing. In the end these aren't boomspeakers and they are small. But for what they are they still sound pretty good.
yea might have just been the music i was playing because when listening to some youtube videos the speakers seem to sound the same I just recon some of my music isnt proper stereo or something because some things sound uniform some doesnt.
Just restart the phone. This seems to happen to me from time to time.
