Is it possible to enable stereo speakers on the Moto X?
(Back speaker + front speaker)
LG G2, Nexus 5 and others devices have a mod for stereo, but Moto X?
2: ROM for good performance in GPU and battery? (without overclock/underclock)
Thanks!

I currently own an HTC ONE GPE and trying to make a switch to Moto X. HTC ONE is considered to have the best DAC and best audio volume according to GSM arena. My only worry is audio volume and quality via headphones on Moto X ?
I have done tons of research on the topic and there seems to be mixed reviews on audio quality.
What do you guys say -
Is the audio volume loud enough ? Is it louder or par with iphones ?
Is the sound quality comparable with HTC One ?
Do i need to use low impedance or high impedance headphones ?
Or should i use bluetooth headphones like jay bluebird earbuds ?
Let me know
I thought the moto x had terrible audio quality when I got it but turns out the 3d EQ setting is on my default . to me it made it sound like crap. Turn it off and walla

Not sure about the iPhone 5, but my Moto X speaker puts my wifes 4s to shame. And I just use my Samsung ear buds... They sound pretty good to me.

The moto x's speaker is suprisingly loud, clear, and bassy. Headphones sound great.:thumbup:

QFT, all my friends and family were surprised on how loud it was. You won't be disappointed by the speakers performance. It was another reason I chose it over the Nexus 5.

Definitely louder and richer sound on the speaker than my Nexus 4. However it doesn't sound as good through earphones, at least from what I remember. That could be equalizer settings though.
I had the HTC One Mini, and Iphone 5s before I got the MotoX. The Moto X sound is way louder then both of those. I really notice when I put the Moto X on its back while playing music, it makes it louder. This is with WinAmp as the player. I really like the Moto X for playing music. No complaints here.
My thoughts after a week..
Call quality is good. Nothing to necessarily boast about, but no negatives to report. 75% more than loud enough for me, no complaints about quality on my end.
Speaker sounds good, again nothing to really boast about. I usually don't listen to music from the speaker - podcasts, occasional youtube - so I can't really offer up any detailed diagnosis. Definitely sounds better coming from my Galaxy Nexus, and more than suitable for my daily use.
As for headphones.. I have a decent pair and a crummy pair and they sound comparable with my other devices and music. I mainly use my Jaybird Bluebud headphones and absolutely zero complaints. 16 Ohms* for reference, and they sound great, but I haven't heard any unusual reports about headphone consistency anyways so whatever you have should translate in quality (source consistency provided). Bluetooth issues and 4.4+ seem to be more consistent with speaker setups / car use but don't quote me, but I've had no bluetooth issue between 4.2.2 and 4.4 and my headphones. Can't comment on other bluetooth compatible issues.
Can't find anything in this department to fault the device on, personally, but YMMV, of course :good:

lower impedence is generally regarded as a good thing in iems but for reference;

Hi
I currently have a Moto G and I like it alot apart from the camera and the sound quality via headphones. I had the Galaxy Note 2 before this it was way better on clarity and low end. I understand that it's a much more expensive phone so not really a fair comparison.
I just wondered if anybody had any experience with the Moto G and Moto X and if the X has noticeably better sound quality of the two?
Thanks,
I like the sound quality of my headphones on the moto x. I have my old sgs4 headphones but I used my old apple headphones as well and sound quality on the s4 headphones are better than the apple headphones. But it would sound a lot better with viper4android as well
MOTO X

Thanks for the insight.
Anyone else with an opinion?
I do really like my Motorola headphones, but I'm now using my old Samsung ones, as they seem to have clearer sound quality.
And yes, you definitely should install Viper4Android, it's just the best.
Anyone here used a "Designed for iphone/ipod" headset with their Moto X? I've been looking at headphones to use with the X and my (Windows) laptop, and want to retain the microphone capability.
Note: I don't care about the button functionality.
However, it's unclear whether the mic on a "designed for i-device" headset will work on the X.
To answer my own question, the mic works. Tested specifically with the Klipsch Image One (II) which are labelled as "Made for i-device".
As an aside, the bass on these was waaay too much for my tastes. Very comfortable though.
Hi guys , thinking to buy Moto X 2014, how you can compare the sound quality(music) with galaxy s5, HTC one m8,? Is it better, I'm music lover so whats your opinion, is sound quality good in moto x?

I can't tell you how the speaker compare, but on it's own it's pretty louder and clear with a small distortion at loudest volume. The headphone output on the other hand is excellent, excellent clarity and very smooth sounding. It have enough amping power (in term of phones headphone output) to drive my full size headphones with adequate bass punch. It's the first phones headphone quality I'm really happy with since wolfson dac from Samsung Galaxy S.
I have a newly bought Moto G 2014 (2nd Gen) and am thinking of buying the Audio Technica ATH-M20X headphones for home use. Can the phone support it's high imepdance value of 47 ohm?
@Bazingapunk98
I dunno about that , but you'd need an active external amps to drive such humongous pair of cans

I got a pair of Sony MDR-1R, and they've got quite high impedance. They can be driven with the phone alone, but you'd be better off with an external amp.

I coupled my q701 (60 ohm) at full volume they sound .... not loud not quiet, I'll suggest to use an amp.
