Official Sound Quality Thread - Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V

Lets talk about SQ, DAC and anything related to thread title here...
Since XperiaT utilize same chipset that HTC One-S (which is good enough with Beats turn off) use, i expect SQ to be on par, if not better because yes its a Sony

The loud speaker is, in my opinion, exquisite!

I've got to agree with the above, the loud speaker is excellent, much better than my old HTC Desire. I've yet to try out the headphone output yet though.

The loud speaker is amazing, and sound through headphones is amazing!!

Yes, 100% agree. Absolutely great sound!

If any of you happen to have a Sony Walkman X to compare it to, I'd love to hear.
My brother has an old Walkman that has pretty great SQ and while my Captivate is pretty up there for a smartphone in terms of SQ, I most certainly don't want to take any steps back.
Also does the T come with headphones? If so are they worth keeping?

Speaker makes my One S sound like complete garbage...
After a couple of tweaks with the equalizer the sound quality is very good through my Shure headphones.

I was going to buy this phone but after listening to a song on the phone whihc i tested on my ex SGS3, My GFs HOS and XT the XTs sound was low in volume compared to both and lacked bass however the sound was very clear and seemed a bit louder than my old XS which was rubbish.
I have heard about battery life problems, however I have learned like the one X that can be improved under software update but sound for me is a problem not loud or bassy enough. Shame as it a great looking phone at a bargain price £400

One thing to mention about the sound from the loudspeaker, it can vary a lot depending where you put it.
ie, holding it in your hand or having the phone face-down doesn't sound great IMO. However, place it on a table with the screen facing up and it's transformed.
I used to place my HoX in a big coffee mug and that improves the sound a bit too.
Not felt the need with the XpT tbh...

i haven't got xperia T or TX
but they got same headset like xperia s
headphone's sound worth enough; eqivalent to ~45 bucks...
sony sell it at 60bucks if i not mistaken

Personally the sound is awesome, I was skeptical at first with sound but I love it now and the amount of pass for a phone speaker just makes music sound awesome, my Neo isn't bad but this speaker is badass

So is the sound of the loud speaker better then the other Xperia phones? I've heard the Xperia s is clear but not very loud and my arc is well not that great to listen to is the Xperia T at least an improvement over it's predecessors?

My personal opinión
From my personal opinion, I can say that the speaker has a very good quality a sound but well, I think something is missing when you use headphones, I'm using Bose headphones and the sound is clear but it seems like sometimes it is missed of volumen and also the bass, I know that it could depend on the song but all my songs are nearly 360 kbps. Even this happens with the original headphone.
This is from my personal point of view.

Did you mess with the equalizer?

I just got the T last night and now have tested out the loud speakers there good but not great first of all they don't even go as loud as my arcs speakers do but they are a bit deeper which is nice but the two phones are almost 2 years apart and I don't find there to be a big enough improvement in this aria

It's a tiny flat speaker and there isn't room for anything bigger, what do you expect? All phone speakers are crappy, some are just crappier than others. My laptop sounds a lot worse for example.
Sent from my LT30p using xda premium

IMHO my previous phone (a Nexus S with Voodoo sound) had a way more powerful/rich sound.

The speaker on this blows my Sensation XE out of the water then sh*ts on it from a great height, Beats audio what??

I think the great sound of Xperia Ts' speakers is because of Sony creativity They created the phone with curved back and put the speaker there so when you put the phone on the table and press play the music, the speaker will create a "surround" sound and also play the role as a subwoofer :laugh: That's why it's so impressive and unique :victory:

[Q] Sound quality / loudness through headphones

OK I've just picked up an Incredible S to replace the iphone 4 that I was bored with (plus I gained some cash in the bargain), and am generally happy, but I do find that the sound quality leaves a lot to be desired, it seems to lack punch and dynamics, and sounds a little flat, which means you want to turn it up, but of course, even at the loudest setting, its only moderately loud, especially with outside noise competing for attention.
Compared with the iphone, it is a long behind in sound quality and loudness, and this is when using some Denon IEMs, and is probably my only source of real disappointment with this handset. It kind of reminds me of the somewhat subpar results I heard from my old Nexus One and Desire, which seems to suggest little has changed in that time,
So, is there any way of making this thing go any louder? If it could, then it won't be a deal breaker - I really didn't expect it to be any better than the iphone in that respect anyway.

I agree, but try using SRS-on, it improves the sound quality alot. I'm using a pair of Westone UM3x and there are stark differences with SRS on and off.

Nice idea... but I don't think I can as having to use PowerAmp as the native player doesn't do gapless MP3s...
Yes the srs improves the quality ... But sadly the earphones that come with the devices arent very loud

I dont use the included ones (phone was from ebay so didnt get them), I use Denon in-ear headphones, and they aren't very loud either. They were very loud out of the iphone.

Audio Quality

Is the LG O4X audio quality & volume through headphones really that bad? I've read GSMarena's review as they've now posted the audio part of the review. They said it possibly one of the worst devices they've tested
This will be a deal breaker for me. :-( what do you guys think?
Any previous GSII ownes in here that can provide input on personal opinions between the quality of the two?
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Audio quality seems fine to me. GSMArena suspected they had a faulty unit, and said they would try another but I have yet to see an update to the review to reflect this.
I did see that but thought what is the chance of them receiving a faulty unit. Im currently using a Galaxy S II, and the audio quality via music player suits me. I reappy want the 4X as its a sexy beast, just wouldn't be able to cope with crap music quality.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
The sound quality is pretty good on the 4x. I upgraded after breaking my milestone and I was also iffy on buying the 4x because of the gsm review... when I tested it out, it sorta felt like my entire phone became a speaker but it instantly became muffled when I covered the grill. Black magic is at work here lol
Im on about through the headphones lol
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda app-developers app
Oudio output is fine for me too, though not as good as the One X, a little louder would not be a bad thing, but overall as good as other smartphones in the segment.
It is, once again, fine. Satisfactory. I don't like in-ear headsets so I just use the ones that came with my milestone 2 years ago >_> I did try the headphones that were in the box though, they unlock some eq presets along with an option to manually tweak the levels. But plugging in any headphones will unlock that.
...as good as the other six smartphones I use, honestly. I always check music quality through my $500 akg closed headphones with quite a range of high quality files and the 4x sounds really fine, absolutely no problem here.
Just bought 4X to replace my 3.5" iPhone 4S, everything is fine except the sound quality which I must say is terrible compared with iPhone especially when using the built in speaker Maybe it's because the speaker is at the back of the phone

What if you set the O4X on its front so that the speaker grill is facing upwards? Will it be not as terrible? Is it really that bad compared to iPhone 4S?

Only the sound is louder, quality won't improve no matter where you face the speaker. Apart from Moto's Raxx, iphone's sound quality is excelent (from my own experiece).
I downloaded Poweramp as recmmended by local forum here to my 4X and the sound quality improves a little bit.

hi guys, what about the call quality? is it loud n clear on speakers?
It's okay. I went through a few phone calls and I didn't experience any problems and have no complaints.
Although... has anyone else noticed that the voice for navigation is kinda quiet? I turned it up to max and drove a few suburbs over but I felt like it was a bit too gentle for a car environment.
Music over bluetooth, Motorola Motorokr s305 stereo headphone & headset works good. But dolby mobile setting stutters (to bad, cause I liked the sound). I now use the headphone amplifier setting. Also good, but not as loud as Dolby mobile.

Did anybody try the headphone out with high-end multidriver iems (Like Shure SE535, Phonak PF232 or Westone UM3x...)?
I'm an iPhone 4S user and the headphone out is almost perfect when listen thru my UM3x. Hence i was wondering if the 4X would be close in terms of noise floor, resolution and frequency response.
Thanks in advance

If the TF10 sounds good and you have your treble then output impedance of the LG must be quite low which is a great thing.
Could you fill me in about the noise floor (Noise that you can hear when you pause the music till the amp section shuts off).
Thanks a lot
Audio quality problem
I sometimes hear below average audio quality and I have to re-insert my head phone to get normal audio. Do any body facing this problem

Sound quality?

How's the sound quality (through headphones)? As noisy and awful as the Galaxy S II is supposed to be? As "clean" as the output in the HTC One S? Or more likely somewhere in-between?
And it's obviously subjective but how's the sound stage? Is it "flat" like some users of the US S4 Galaxy S III claim, compared to the Wolfson Galaxy S III's?
I like the hd sound best compared to rhe one x s3 and nexus stock bc the eq works really well. The stock eq even adjusts apps output like rdio as well. I wish it had an am/fm radio. I saw nothing special in the sound of my intl s3. The nexus rooted w franco kernel and sound enhancement is the highest quality u can hope for w android. JB helps as well.

i think sound quality is great!! only thing that bugs me is, since the speaker grill is in the bottom next to camera, whenever i put it on the table it kinda sounds small since the speaker grill is blocked but otherwise when you are holding it on hand, it sounds really good and loud!!

well i didnt mean loud= good but big sounding speaker is always a plus when u have a lot of noise goin on!!! but i get your point too.. :silly:
What about the quality through BT or headphones? I rarely use the speaker on the phone, but not a day goes by that I link my phones media player to my car stereo or listen through good headphones while doing various tasks...
I've read people saying that connecting to BT in a car gets screwy when you have the Smart Actions enabled... anyone have any insights?
Comparing to one x tgis doesnt do as good. Choppy is right but i have smart actions enabled so i will try without smart actions and get back with it

Sony MH-EX300AP- Hit or Miss??!!

Hi all, the Z and ZL comes with a MH-EX300AP range of Earphones. Sony claims that it handles rich bass and is a premium one designed exclusively for the Z and ZL. Does it proves what Sony claims? My opinion is that it gives a respectful and a decent job compared to many stock ones provided! But what do you guys think? Do you use them or have a separate buds/cans? Post your opinions below. If you have been using the stock ones, tell us how do you feel and how it's performance were according to you, was it up to your expected mark and such. You can also mention some great earphone-headphone combos that goes with the Z/ZL well and which you've been using.:good:
BTW I am using my Klipsch Image S4 with Z, they literally rock with walkman!
This might help someone who are in the lookout for decent pair of buds/cans for Z/ZL
i just bought mw1 bluetooth wireless headset pro and I'm loving it....
headset is really good loud music volume and good basses !! also it shows sms on its screen and reads if want to hear, also I can read titles of my mails from heatsets screen too. and one more thing that you can do is to see calls log list of your device and call anyone from that list without touching the phone
now I don't need to open my phones flaps at all I have charging dock and if I want to upload some files to phone I just use airdroid and works like a charm.
Sound is great when they are in but The buds aren't working for me I can barely move with them in so I'm getting some over the ear NFC ones next month.

Yes they are, in India Sony gave up a cheap pair of Headphones which don't actually sound at all when compared to the one given in UK! So when compared to those and those stock ones which came with my arc, these sound better must admit. Lack of volume button is a glaring omission though!

They are excellent for bundled headphones, but they are so unbelievably quiet.
I find them crackly/distorted and way too quiet, but they do have good bass if not overpowering bass. Sticking with my Shure buds though, better clarity

They are quite though, but they never sounded distorted to me!
I made a little comparison with my other 3 sets . I'm using pureXaudio v4, with Noozxoide musicFX ,
MH-EX300AP
They're not bad , actually very nice to listen to , but way too quiet. I find them comfortable to wear ,and good fit if i switch left-right HP, and lead the cables behind my ears. Bass is ok, nothing special, but atleast it's not overpowering the higher frequencies . MIdrange is the best part of them i would say. They don't respond that well when changing settings in noozxoide mfx. You can't hear much difference between effects
Sennheiser CX300-II
If you're in search for relativly cheap upgrade from stock sony one's, i wound say this is a way to go. Loud enough ,out of the box they are to "boomy", but by clicking the "soft clipping compressor" option in Nmfx gets them similar sounding to sony one's , but with much better bass response.You do get clearer sound in sony mx-ex300ap.. Those of you that are bass hungry would be very satistifed with them .
NCredible NErgy by Monster
Complete opposite to CX300-II,and much louder that ex300ap. . Bass is not their strong side(better that sony thought),, but voices are a real joy listening to. If your into rock and easy listening , these one are for you . Downside ? Pricey and you'll often find yourself dialing down the treble .
Sennheiser IE80
You can't really compare them to the others ,cause they can sound like whatever headphones you would like them to be , Louder than any IEM's i have ever tried , and even thought the bass is stronger than on cx300, it's not overwhelming ,and you can always hear vocals and background stuff loud and clear .(oh ,and the price bit, but i got them for like 300$, so i don't regret any $ spend . So ,if you really want to change your experience on listening to the music on portable devices, get one of these if you find a good deal
They might not be the best but they're certainly the best earphones I've ever got bundled with a phone. For me there's is no need to change them as they satisfy my needs perfectly. Period.
PS. I am going to buy SBH20 bluetooth headset and use EX300AP with it though.

They range on ebay from 350$-500$, but i would rather look up for them is some local store, and get extended warranty if possible .I have 5years on mine I got IE80 after 2 warranty claims on ie8 in short time(they were discontinued) . Those happened while i was having nokia e72, so i think there was something really wrong with output connection on nokia, as they also messed up another pair of cx300. 3 years ago this headphones were much cheaper (almost 200$), so that's the reason i got mine for under 300$.

Search Google for head-fi forums/audiophile forums . They have threads with comparisons and testing. I have read ( dont remb which forum) a thread in which they compared about 100-200 heads/in ears ranging from cheep china ones to akg's 1800$ kid!!! . Seriously most of the stock in ears that comes with phones lacks the juice. I own 3 headphones and 5 in ears. And none of them are stocks that comes with phones. I also have a beats in ear which comes with htc( i think its a over rated adv) . And a nokia in ear ( i re-wired it to suit my htc/computer. I use it for sleeping coz its flat cable is much more stronger , and wont break easily if i sleep over it.. , also it sounds enough for its price). A samsung one( broken cable), an old Sony Ericsson hpm 70( my fav one at that time, still i keep them). Enough story!
My fave is xba 4 sony . Cost almost 8000 Indian rupee!!! ( lol that was a tight one for some fresh engineer, it was about ⅓ of my salary!!!) . And i earned my passion for now, future plan is an AKG with a tube amp for it.

I was shocked when I learned that these headphones doesn't have volume controls !!
After doing some search I found that there's no standard for volume controls, so headphones should be design for specific devices only.. there's no standard even between Android devices from different companies, IE Samsung headphones volume controls does not work on Sony mobile phones and so on ( I've checked Note 2 headphones on Xperia S, audio is okay, answer key is working but not volume keys )...
I think that's why Sony is not thinking seriously with these volume keys even for a good bundled headphones like these... but this problem should not stop them I think it will be better to use Apple standards as Sony already have some products that are iPhone compatible and in the same time there's a huge market of headphones that are made for iProducts, they just need to support it in their devices.. unless there's some legal things and if Apple want some licensing thing for such silly thing then no... but if there's nothing then what ever is popular is good
The only thing I can think that will be compatible with all devices is to use a stereo bluetooth headset...

Z1 sound quality compared to Z & Z Ultra

Does anyone yet know how the speaker (and headphone) quality & loudness compare to other phones
Especially the Z & Z Ultra as the waterproofing evidently degraded the sound volume and quality.
Hoping it's been rectified this time.

The HTC One seems to have better sound for me
I wouldn't expect it to be, tbh, as long as it's better than the Z and loud enough, that's fine for me.
It sound loud enough fr me, but hey nobody want to hear your music, thats why we got an earphone

The HTC one has the best sound of all android phones due to beats and boomsound. I found that the Z1 speakers were not as loud as my S3 speakers but the sound out of them was definitely was of a better quality. Headphones was good but I need to mess around more with the settings etc to confirm!

Comparing to other phones I have, the Z1 speaker is obviously not as good as my One nor the S4 (I9500). It's about on par with my N7 which isn't bad but not at the top of end either.

Does anyone yet know how the speaker (and headphone) quality & loudness compare to other phones
Especially the Z & Z Ultra as the waterproofing evidently degraded the sound volume and quality.
Hoping it's been rectified this time.

Hey mate, I compared the Z and the Z1 video playback (speakers) on my hands on video. Here is the link if you wanna check it out:

Well, I'm using XS with AC!D sound engine and sound is pretty good, I'll buy a Z1 in the next month just hope that AC!D team will support Z1 in the next versions.
