Hi guys, two weeks ago i bought my Xperia Z and i have to say that every single thing on that phone is amazing except one....the loudspeaker is really low! What can i do in order to increase the sound level produced by the loudspeaker? Does this Xaudio really work so good for the loudspeaker? The earphones' experience is amazing though!
Thanks in advance!

Is it worth it? Is the difference really big?

Yes the sound quality is better.. But if you want so much increased volume from speakers then there is not a big difference...

It's integrated in S4pro chip, just like N4 and OG
Thanks noxlord !
Bad news for us then ...
@lokenok Thanks Mr Obvious.
In s4pro really good DAC but quiet. So question whether there are additional amplifiers.
This is SONY we're talking about... they always paid lots of attention to their devices' Walkman feature so i'm sure they won't screw this one up.
I seriously hope the DAC is good..although there is always the root tweaks
If the DAC is not good, tweaks won't help. But I'm also confident that Sony did their work great.
NOTE 1 has a bad DAC but with tweaks it sounds great!
The HTC One s was loud and that has a S4 chip, I have also listened to the Nexus 4 and the audio is very good, also xperia T is good but just needs to be a bit louder
Yeah, sound is said to be really good on N4, but really low too.
I hope Sony techies will amplify the sound. I'd really love to use good IEMs on this device.
My local three store had a xperia z today (was very surprised at this actually) had over and hours play with it love everything about it and the audio is very good, it is more than loud enough. I also played with the nexus 4 again and the Z is louder not that the nexus 4 is low in volume.

Nothing short of amazing, I was amazed by the screens on the Xperis S & T this one is a whole new league and plus its the first 1080p screen I have seen. It is just amazing and totally cannot wait to get mine on feb 28th or march 1st.
@dibdin There's already an interesting screen topic in Q&A. Let's keep it about the sound here.
@RWSAMHTC Thanks for your input ! Which kind of headphones did you try it with ? Do you know their impedance ?

I tried it with my urbeats in ear headsets. I tried 15 different types of songs from bashment, reggae, rnb etc. I mostly like bass and loudness and the xperia z did very well I am very please with it. Loudness in headphones was always my main issue, now I dont need to worry about that. I also tried the loudspeaker it was loud enough not the loudest of speakers but loud enough. couldnt try any phone calls though. Also test camera and video and video audio quality which on my one x and sgs3/gn2 wasnt the greatest atall. Very impressed with the z really. Atm the only think i think it needs is a blocking mode for calls and texts.
OK great to hear [no pun intended] that the sound is 'LOUD'..Other aspects like the bass and all can be tweaked..i was hoping that i wont have to carry an amplifier.
I played around with different equalizer settings, really impressed with bass and the loudness
Odp: [Q] Xperia Z's Audio DAC ?
So the loudness of a speaker is comparable due to Xperia T?

Loud speaker seems louder than the T, the Ts loudspeaker was just poor imo.
Hey everyone, I've been pretty happy with my Xperia Z until yesterday when I was out and people called me and I couldn't really hear anything they said as the volume was too low in the earphone.
The earphone was / is clean and dry and I have tried different settings and of course max volume etc but it just seems to be too low?
Anyone had any better success with talking or rather listening to people trying to talk to you in traffic or noisy environments?
Surely Sony's flagship phone must let you actually hear what people say when they are calling you?
EDIT: I actually tried the service menu and the tests are pretty loud and very clear compared to calls... so at least the hardware seems to be ABLE to do it's job...

I find the sound quality from the earpiece terrible. It's not only quiet but very muffled and I can't really hear people on the phone even in quiet environments. I'm going to take the phone back because of this!

sound on z not good maybe due of water resistance of the phone

If you haven't yet, try turning off the Speaker voice enhancement under Call settings. That actually improved the in-call sound quality quite a bit for me.

Hm mine was off but turned it on now to see differences, will have a go tomorrow. Also there is a EQ for calls there as well that I haven't tried yet. I'm hoping that it's just the firmware that needs some extra push as the service menu proves Z can provide some serious quality in the hardware...
please confirm your problem here , so sony support can see this

Yes the problem still remains no matter what settings you do... I wonder if a rooted phone with a sound mod might increase the volume on the call side...?

This is the way it is. You can try a sound mod which would compress the sounds making it louder but much less clearer. What you can do is enable Clear Phase and place the phone on a flat surface. The echo would increase the sound. Cheap but works.
Get one of these SRSBTV5P. They go for around 50 to 70 dollars and my friend's sounds great
Now i'm very disappointed of Xperia V sound for listening music because when i played with Walkman Player, sound are not stable.When i taste with Clear Bass +8 or +10, sound output is low volume with not stable. Sometime sound volume was increase level but sometime decrease with not stable for listening. Original Walkman Player 4.1.2 on Xperia V is very lousy with not look like My Old Xperia Neo. Why ???? When i used Sony Ericssion Xperia Neo, Everythings r very good & taste with Clear Bass +8db or +10db, sound
is very good taste for feeling. Now i changed Neo to Xperia V, very disappointed for listening for songs of music. And then cannot use Xperia Neo headphone on Xperia V.
How can i do Xperia Neo sound quality on Xperia V??? I don't like sound for listen my new Xperia V.

I have the V, too.
If you give so much bass to the sound, it is no wonder the system will try best to limit the volume for preventing damage to the tiny speaker, the headphone or your ears. Especially in conjunction with a cheap headphone that might be quite annoying, yep. If you like bass then buy headphones that deliver bass without the need for pumping it up artificially.
Thanks Bro! do u know how to stop limit volume for preventing damage to the tiny speaker?? i don't want to need limit the volume for clear bass.
It's depend on limit from system or headphone bro?? i like more my old xperia neo headphone but V is not support for Neo.
Thanks

Flash a soundmod.. Acid audio or Viper audio or PureAudio lite. Just to mention some of them.
You gotta try which one suits best your taste of music

Acid Audio: Good all-in-one-package. Very popular. But some say, it's a little unstable. (And I'm not quite sure if this one worked for me )
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2177709
Viper Audio: Lots of settings, but more a convoler. Some say it sounds a little unnatural, others love it.
Btw I recommend xHiFi version, it's better imo. ^^
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191223
PureXAudio: Clearest sound of them all. Also has a great bass! Using this one myself.
Make sure to only flash the lite version, as the full one only supports Xperia Z!

It's the OEM earpiece, if you are using it.
Hello Guys
I want to get the SP , but I heard from some reviews that it have a very low audio volume when using headphones , is that true? and if it is true how low is it, I'm taking the subway everyday to work and I'm afraid that I won't hear my music , I don't care about the loudspeakers I'm setting my phones to vibration anyway. thanks
Its loud on headset but a noun for the ear.
Maybe the end of the test jis helpful.

yes I saw the gsmarena test but it says on the description the sound when pluging a headphone is pretty low
hmmm , I guess I'll look for something else , too lame that sony is one of the leading companies in Audio products but they can't make a phone with proper audio quality .
I like the sp so much it looks good perform good but something little as sound volume can mess it up.
No complaints here. I use headphones while running and I use etymotics while on the motorcycle (in a helmet). I'm no audiophile and it sounds just great to me. Clean and crisp.

Thanks for replying , but what do u think about the loudness , is it enough or its low?
The standard headset that comes with the SP just sucks, plug in your average headphones and there is nothing to complain about..
Thanks a lot guys
the sound is awesome, like others have said the standard earphones suck terribly. i use my sp with a surround system in my room and it sounds just as good as my mac or iPod which have magnificent audio. the built in speaker is LOUD much louder than an iPhone or s4 and theres minimal distortion at max volume
