I'd check out the Klipsch Image S4 or Image S4i (the only difference is the S4i has phone controls). I haven't used them myself yet but they're great from everything I've read and Klipsch makes fantastic products.
Thanks mate, will check them out.

No problem. Also, in case you're not using it yet I'd jump over to one of the kernels that include the VooDoo sound drivers. They make a world of difference in listening to music on the phone (there is a link to Netarchy's kernel in my sig)
Using that already..
I have a rooted standard NS (2.3.2, GRH78C) with Netarchys awesome kernel.
I had to go back to 1.1 because 1.2 was crashing the phone at every boot.
Sound is superb even through the packaged headphones.

You'll notice a huge difference with better ones, trust me. I tested the sound improvements through the stock headphones as well as a few of my high end pairs and there is a monumental difference.
First track I listened to was The Dandy Warhols - Nietzsche.... blew me away.. thanks again
might seem crazy, but i bought the bose MIE2 mobile phone headset, and the sound quality is friggin superb. the inline button works for pause/play/ff for all the apps music player, google listen, etc. and they are so comfortable. totally worth it, but costs 130 dollars. best thing i did for my phone though
Am I the only person who cant hear any difference with or without the voodoo audio tweaks? I use Sony MDR EX 300 headphones and have done for a while.... (they are awesome imo)

I've never been a fan of the sound reproduction of Sony headphones.
Here is a quote from a review of those headphones
The sound has all the traits of Sony in-ear earphones. It's no secret that average-quality dynamic transducers with an ill-designed resonance cavity don't make for mind-blowing performances.
The lack of balance is highly audible, with mediums and high frequencies that are well defined but a bass that's too strong and not very well contained. The overall definition suffers as a result and makes the sound feel a bit invasive.
Thankfully, they're much better than the kind of headphones typically supplied with portable music players, and this model is fine for anyone looking for a decent starter pair of in-ear headphones.
So long as you can find them sold at a decent price (the RRP is way too high) these headphones are a great model for anyone who wants to try out a pair of in-ear headphones. Look past the low-end packaging and a sound quality that could still be better, and these headphones have everything you need to get started.

Also, to the OP just to add a few other options...I'd forgotten about this website:
Headphone.com $50-$100 search

Interesting quote. Thanks. But I like them, so each to their own I suppose.
Still, I can't hear the difference when using the Voodoo audio tweaks and I seem to be alone in that.

I haven't used those specifically, but I have used a pair of Etymotic HF3s and a pair of iBeats or something like that (my wife's). Both have controls and only the controls on the Etymotic ones worked.

I apologize, I hope you didn't take my post as an attack on your headphones, I was merely trying to inform as to a possible reason why the difference is not readily apparent. I can confirm that there is a difference and that the quality of the headphones being used does effect it (I've tested 4 pairs of headphones both with and without the tweak).

No, its cool. I spent £30 on headphones - they are not going to be as good as a £100 pair! At the price at least, I stand by em! I will try it with my Sennheiser PXC-300's tomorrow and see if I can hear it.

I just picked up a pair of audio technica ath-m50 headphones from eBay for $125. They are arguably the best headphones you can get for the money.

I've owned 2 pairs of Sennheiser CX300, the I and the II and I've been terribly happy with them, until this morning when my 3-year old CX300 IIs said bye bye. One side went mute and there seems not to be anything wrong with the cable... twisting an turning it all along its length does nothing. On the way to work, this morning they worked fine, as did they every day for the past 3 years.
Now they pretty much died so I need new earbuds.
What would you recommend for replacement, under $40, cheaper the better?
I found these Panasonic earbuds for very cheap at a local store and reviews are pretty good. But the price being so low - I can get them for $8 - makes me a bit skeptical of their quality.

i do use a pair of skullcandy jib, i've bought them for about €9.99, and i use them woth the EQ set on "raise trebles" or whatever is in english (i'm from .it XD)
don't know, i'm fully satisfied, maybe you'll find a fit with them
Best way is always to test each set before buying, although it is becoming increasingly difficult even on more expensive equipment. Some more information on your preferences would help though. Open or canalphones, bright/flat/bassy, etc.
In general though, the Yuin PK2 or PK3s for open sets and i've heard nothing but good from the Brainwavz M1/M2 for canalphones as all-rounders. Do some research and if possible listen to them with your phone, the best way to find out which set you like best.
There isn't much good for less than what those cost, so probably your best bet.
Yeah, I should've provided more info.
I'm looking for in-ear buds, with those silicone/rubber things that mold to your ear canal. I love how they isolate outside sounds and I find them very comfortable. Soundwise I'd like them to be as flat as possible.
Regarding trying them out... there are very few stores here that would let me open a sealed box to test the speakers so that's why I'm asking instead of just going shopping.
Also I don't care all that much for volume/play/skip controls on the cable... actually I rather they don't have any.
I personally have the CX300-IIs so i know what you're after (they have a very nice sound for the price, comfort and durability, and slightly bassy just how i like it), though i too don't have anywhere nearby to audition so i can't help you with the specific sounds of alternatives. Don't know how much products would cost you either.
There is however alot of great information that you can find through forums like headfi and hydrogenaudio. There is one retailer in Aus that has also been alot of help for me and many i know in choosing equipment, so you can also have a look at the descriptions, recommendations and forum posts over at Headphonic. One of the most objective places on the net for headphones, though just remember it is still essentially a retailer.
IMHO the CX300-II are nothing near "flat". But if you like boomy bass, warm sound signature, but with a better sound quality, try ViSang R02.
Really cheap with great sound quality?? Philips SHE3570

Thanks, but as I said previously I'm ruling out anything that colors the sound too much and "boomy bass, warm sound" is exactly that.
In this moment, I'm using 'that' panasonic earbud. It's just awesome, for this price it's the best. If I will ever buy another earbud, it's because it doesn't have a mic. For music, it is perfect. Oh, and don't forget to use Voodoo sound! I also flashed HTC's Beats audio btw...
The CX300s are definitely not flat, they do push more towards a warm, slightly boomy but not overpowering sound. Whether it is similar to the Alpha-series Brainwavz i wouldn't know.

Lol nevermind, it's subjective anyway
I don't own the cx300-II, but from what I've read they aren't the best headphones for flatness. Actually, I think they are known to appeal to bass lovers.
I'd say get the "Soundmagic e30" for budget and "Hifiman RE-0" for something a bit pricier. personally, I really like the energetic sound offered by my Klipsch S4's though they are definitely not flat.
I absolutely love my Beta Brainwavz. They're pretty cheap, and the quality is good. I've had mine for over a year and some, and they've only been getting better the more I burn them in.
I use Bose IE2 and it is really good except for one thing, price. It seems to be too expensive. It sure has a quality that matches it's price but it may be too expensive for most people.

Klipsch Promedia can be had for under $40 if you check Slickdeals, etc.
Got mine on sale from Tigerdirect a while ago for $25.
They are relatively unknown which is a shame because they are the exact same thing as the more popular and expensive, S4/S4i model. They use the same drivers.
For the price you can't do better.
If you are willing to go over the ear route, Koss Portapros are the budget cans to get.
Hope this helps.

People claim they are awesome. I own a pair and do not think they are that great. Nothing, IMO, beats a pair of over the ear headphones. $100 bucks is pricey too for a pair of earbuds. The quality seems to be quite low, too. I replaced them twice before buying a pair of headphones.

I have them and I love em. They sound better than any other earbuds ive owned.
I have the image s4's. I would say they are fairly average in that range. Etymotics have better fidelity but less bass.
The sound profile of these changes completely once you get a set of comply foam tips on them. Seal is better, bass is punchier, mids and highs aren't as grating and they fit my ears a lot more comfortably.

I use my GR07 MK2 (neutral) almost exclusively, but my partner owns a pair of ckm500 and they're very "fun" & easy to drive. A little too "boomy" and no where near quick enough for me, but keep in mind this is coming from someone who enjoys quick precise BA/ BA like dynamic iems
Edit: I'd also throw Yamaha's EPH-100 into the mix. They can be had for ~$100, but their difficult to find.

In-Ear Monitors (IEMs) can most certainly be worth the price, plenty of professional musicians using them onstage quite happily. For great info on headphones check a musician or audiophile source, I like head-fi.org, here's a buying guide they keep updated:
http://www.head-fi.org/a/buying-guide-headphones-by-price-range
also check http://www.gearslutz.com/board/ which is a music engineering forum, I'm sure there's some good info there.
When I decided to get a nice pair of over-the ear headphones I took my ipod to Guitar Center and started taking headphones out of boxes and trying them out. A musician-based store will understand needing to audition the gear, and I ended up spending $150 on a pair of KKRs that I love, which I use with my Viewsonic Gtab. I routinely hear things in songs I've never heard before with this setup.
There's another thread in this forum about using external USB Digital-Analogue Converters (DACs) with the HDMI port to get even better sound, but then you start running into the quality of your files, lossy(mp3) vs lossless(flac), etc.
FWIW At work I love my cheap Sony plugs, surprisingly nice sound for under $20.
DOH. Didn't even see that everyone else was linking to head-fi.
A good pair of IEMS can sound better than Over the ears cans, here are mine http://www.head-fi.org/t/596573/new-toy-iems-and-music-player-d#post_8156648 been using it with the S3, iPhone 5, and now the Note II and so far soooo good
these are http://audioearz.com Cheap but high quality !!!!! i just recently upgrade mine from AUD-5x to AUD-7x
im using stock headphones that came with the note 2. listening to it with power amp and bass and treble turned higher, it sounds amazing.
Hey! Thanks for all the replies! What I'm after is a decent pair of IEM with the mic and volume controls which is fully compatible with the GN2. The stock one aren't that bad but I'm looking for something with better audiophile but has to have the hands-free function as well. The S4A II seems to be the only one that fits the job right now. I've looked at JAYS but not so sure about brand. When I really just want to listen to music, I use my custom fit pair of UE.

I use a pair of Sony XBA-2vp. Dual balanced armature IEMs with mic control for Android. Volume control is through an analog slider though.
IIRC it got decent reviews on Head Fi. Although if there was a XBA-3 with Android controls, I would have probably bought that instead.
Kind regards
Hello,
I want an in-ear headset which is most compatible with my Note 2. Do anyone can suggest me about it??
My wished headsets are.
1. Heartbeats by Dr Dre
2. DNA in ear Pure monster sounds
3. C5 In-Ear Headphones by Bowers & Wilkins
4. HiDefDrum +Remote by Atomic Floyd
Pls help me choosing the most suitable headsets for my Note 2. Thanks in advance.:cyclops:
A little confused with your question because you listed 4 pairs of wired earbuds that supposed to have high quality sound but in terms of compatibility catered toward iPhone with an extra remote functionality. I'm not 100% sure with each since I just briefly looked up their spec, but they offer a basic mic with call button to pick up/end the call, and probably play/pause the music/video. But if you want a true multimedia compatibility you probably better off with a cheapo Samsung headphones, although it's hard to find genuine since even Amazon is filled with $5 knockoffs and their sound quality is sub-par. If you are after sound quality and full Android compatibility, check out review of JayBird Blue Buds X I posted earlier (link in my signature). Those are wireless bluetooth and fully compatible with Note 2, although if you prefer wired one that can be used with any audio device or on a plane, you probably better off with wired solution.
As you were told, the list you provided isn't that compatible with Android and Note II in specific.
You can check out Etymotic that have good earphones and are compatible with Android devices.
Personally, I use Superdarts by Atomic Floyd and am very happy with them (but they're not for anyone) in terms of sound quality and mic quality (which really surprised me).

With cars, I know you are not a car racer. You just have your Maserati and Porsche as daily beaters
The Note produces great sound, and to complement that I'm using the Logitech Ultimate Ears 350vm. It's a nice pair of earphones with a strong bass, plus the controls on the earphones work too. Very, very comfortable and the length of the wires is long enough to be comfortable around you.
For $1300, I'd rather buy the Shure SE535 LTD(which is still considered as the best IEM among audiophiles) + its Android compatible cable or even a pair of custom JH or UE.
I haven't listen to the K3003I yet, but from what I've read on Headfi and HeadRoom, the K3003I is really overpriced.
Just ordered Etymotic HF2; given the rave reviews i dug up online, i am suprised no body here has them!
Anyone checked them out?

If you want a better sound quality and more bass, go for B&W C5. If you care more about neutral sound with better comfort and noise isolation - MIE2. I can't speak for C5, since I only reviewed their P3 and P7 headphones (per my link in sig), but I heard a mixed opinion about the comfort of their fitment with that adjustable wire loop. If you wear your in-ear headphones for an extended period of time, I would suggest MIE2.
Also, take a look into Shure SE215, those go for about $99 and have removable cable. Have decent sound isolation, comfy fit, and warmer sound signature toward bass. Typically, cables break and you have to through away your headphones. With removable cables, you just get another set for $20.
I came back to the creative ep630s. Nothing beats them, in the price to performance ratio.

So after watching a couple of GS4 unboxing videos, I've become pretty interested in the included earphones which, as far as I've read, will be available separately for around $30.
Now I'm far from an audiophile but I would still like some decent earphones to use. I was planning to buy myself a pair of these but since the HS330s have volume control on the in-line remote, I thought they might be better.
Since real-world testing is somewhat out of the question at this point, based on specs alone, which of the two do you guys think should have better sound quality?

I was wondering the same thing after reading this review. What got me was this: They offer better bass than just about any other pair of headphones you can find in a smartphone's retail package, although they probably won't fully replace any high-end aftermarket earphones, if you happen to have those. I was looking for something new so that I could retire my current headphones. So I collected an S4 for my mom today and tested out the earphones.
I was not impressed at all. I don't know what bass they are talking about. The max volume from them is also quite low.
To be fair, all the earphones that come with the phones I get normally stay in the box untouched. So I can't say how they fared against other headsets which come in the retail packaging.
I have a 10yr old pair of Sony MDR-EX70LP Fontopia Headphones which even went through a wash cycle and they totally blew the HS330s out of the water in every sound aspect. (I am not an audiophile, so I can't go into lots of detail, but they are much louder, have much deeper and louder bass and are clear and crisp. All the other sounds are there too and sound just as good. )
I don't know if this a an apples to apples comparison, but take it as my 2c.

This is really helpful. Thanks a lot. Even though I know I can get better, I'm actually content with the earphones that came with my Note 2. So if the S4 ones are at least as good as that, I'll probably buy them still. But if they're actually a downgrade then screw that, haha.
Anyone have a review about Samsung HS330 Please... and where is we can buy this earphone online?

I have a pair of Zagg Headphones that came free with my screen protector that work better then anything else I have had. But speaking on headphones, my wife's iphone5 headphones are pretty nice I must say.

They're finally on Ebay. This is the cheapest of two that I found, at around 27 dollars or so: http://www.ebay.com/itm/400504212596
Btw, the Sony MH1C would be a better buy, since it's one of the best earphones you can buy that has functioning buttons for Android devices.
