There really is no such thing as "hi-res headphones"..........There are just better headphones/earphones...

If you want in-depth reviews about specific head/ear phones, i'd suggest:

i know about head-fi , but i want something that works well on z3. for playing lossless files

yeah, basically any high quality wired headphones that can be driven by a smartphone will work. and if you decide to use a portable amp, then any headphones will work.

i have mdr-xb70 , are these any good ? any recommendations ?

I have never tried those so I don't know. There are a lot of good portable headphones, just check out headfi.org under the portable headphones section. I personally use Sennheiser MM-500X. It's bluetooth (with aptx) and wired for my phones. Sony's current MDR lines are pretty good too. Just a little too much bass emphasis for me, but it's just personal taste. It's hard to recommend headphones tbh.

It use the S810 DAC with latest Snapdragon Hexagon DSP, the Z5 Premium have the same, the amplifier is a TFA98XX (Sadly no S-Master HX)

Definitely is the Z5 DAC better than the Wolfson DAC
S-Master HX is an amplifier by Sony, it enchanting Hi-Res alot and it can upscaling Compressed files (like DSEE-HX)

can i ask please so does the sony z5 premium output 192/24bit without down sampling, in other words if i play 192/24bit will it be output as 192/24
can i ask how can one know that this dac is better than a wolfson dac,
over head-fi forum the people there trash the sound quality of the z5 premium comapred to lg v10

Yes it outputs 192kHz 24bit
And I know that Z5 DAC is better because first: DSEE-HX second: wolfson DAC can only output 96kHz 24bit third: the DSP is definitely better
And the LG V10 uses an higher DAC 384kHz 32bit but the CPU will be on full load if it play that, Sony Z5 would be keep cool and play that without any issues

wow, what a bold statement

My audio settings seems the same, cant see any new.. if i access desire player, and go to sound setting its the same. How come no new customization options are visible. 3.5.61 first, then 40.v.m.l

Does Project Desire work on MM?

Experimental Sound Mod | TAIGA Audio.

Yo. I'm not gonna beat around the bush. Here's a sound mod I created when I was bored. It's based off a project I stopped long ago. Just give it a hear. Thanks.
Features:
DTS
Note 7 SoundAlive libraries
Google Pixel XL effects
HTC 10 effects
Huawei dynamic bass boost
Experimental Jack Professional Audio drivers
*Does not conflict with SoundAlive.*
Thanks to my friends @ ARISE
Anyways I wasted enough time, here's the download.

I may or may not even ever update this. Enjoy.

It can be controlled with an app? I mean.. is there something to adjust options?

Nope. Just flash. To confirm installation check /system/ or look into build.prop. Anyways, it's last day of school tomorrow, so goodnight.

@JarellLama and if i only want the note 7 soundalive libraries?

Sorry but the sound is terrible compared to what you can configure with viper/dolby audio and some other audio drivers... this would be a lot better if there was a way to tweak it somehow, sorry didn't mean to disrespect

I made this so it could work directly with Samsung's SoundAlive. With Dolby or V4A SoundAlive gets overwritten.
BTW feel free to flash V4A or/and Dolby over. I recommend the LeEco LeMax 2 Atmos from this link: http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/software/soundmod-axon-7-dolby-atmos-t3412342

If you are looking for just Note 7 SoundAlive, I recommend you get a whole Note 7 port with the framework for Note 7's SoundAlive so you can use the latest SoundAlive app. I recommend Noble Rom.

OFFICIAL answer from LG regarding Dolby Vision

This is an official response LG regarding Dolby Vision and HDR10 on the LG V40 ThinQ. I found it pretty dumb that they didn't certify the V40 with Dolby Vision given the high quality of this OLED Panel. Maybe the G6 was 12 bit but there's TVs' out there that don't have 12bit panels and support Dolby Vision.
Couldn't attach a copy of the email so here is what was written.
"Dear Valued LG Customer,

Hi Fabio, please allow me to take this opportunity to thank you for choosing LG in your next mobile phone purchase. It’s my pleasure to assist you today.*
In response to your inquiry, LG V series line up is yet to support Dolby Vision. As of now, only the LG G6 supports Dolby Vision (please refer to this link -*. LG is still exploring the possibility of this feature on working with upcoming models of LG phones. I hope you understand.*

No new update so far?

My LG G6 Dolby vision quality is superb compared to my LG v40 on hdr10 it's absolutely insane. The color quality and sharpness difference is fastly obvious. If handset support both Dolby vision and hdr10 we as consumers should have the choice which format we want to stream in. I choose Dolby vision over hdr10 every time. I'm on the LG G6 G7 G8 v40 & v50 and the G6 picture smokes all of them on Netflix with DV!

No support on v40?

The G6 defaults to Dolby vision. The others HDR 10. The quality on Netflix specifically is far better on the the G6 than any other LG I listed.

Dolby Atmos: how

Hi,
I've downloaded some official Dolby Atmos trailers from the Dolby site. I used quality headphones to listen to it on my P20, with Dolby Atmos turned on. It didn't sound surroundy at all. How do you get Dolby Atmos content to actually play like it should? Or is that impossible on a phone and is that Dolby Atmos label on a phone more of a "there's been some tweaking with the sound but it's definitely not real Dolby Atmos"?
Thanks!

Did you you use dolby atmos headphones??

No just normal ones, I thought that all the computing was done on the phone and you didn't need special headphones?

S10? This is P20 forum.

Tried that didn't change a thing, except that the sound sounded a teensy bit different. Have you tried Dolby Atmos? Do you get actual surround sound?

I used this YouTube video to test
toggle on and off Atmos and I get proper surround. I use the stock headphones. The sound isn't great in my opinion.
Cheers
Edit: this is one of my favs

See that's impossible because Youtube only carries 2 channels. Dolby Atmos needs extra files for it to know what to do with the sound, that's impossible on Youtube. You need Dolby Atmos encoded files, like the trailers on the Dolby site. I don't hear a difference at all.

You are totally right about the YouTube and getting the actual video download from Dolby I found the audio was definitely better with Dolby enabled. However I agree with you that it isn't all that much better than an good eq setting could do.
Thanks for this I want to find out more. Please let me know if you find any info on this!
Cheers!
