Hello,
I've installed the sound enhancement I've done with the S2, i.e. acid audio engine, noozoxide rewire, with slim bean rom, the walkman music app sounded awesome.
Although my note 2 is running stock , I've tried diferent combination of the acid audio engine, and noozoxide, the stock music player, sounded bright with sol republic headphone. I tried the maven music player it improved a bit. But not in par with the S2.
I read that the note 2 should have sounded better, because it has the wolfson DAC, maybe good sound quality is subjective.
What are you guys doing to in terms of sound enhancements?
Former Samsung Captivate user here. Impatiently waiting for supercurio to release his new voodoo (or Kaudio) app, money in hand. I have not found anyone else who knows how to extract such good performance from the Wolfson DAC.

I can't find one I like. Beats sounds like crap with some files...seems like nothing sounds good around the board. Maybe I just need to stop using pandora.
although my note 2 is rooted, it has the stock rom, maybe it's time to flash a custom rom. Maybe will get the sound quality as good as the S2.
I am not really satisfied with the sound quality of the note 2 at present.

Just plain poweramp sounds 100000 times better than anythign else ive tried
I'm still stock 4 now.. using noozxoide from the market. On my rooted S2, Senation, I flashed awesome beats with noozxoide from market n sounds great.

As far as i I understood these two Sound Mods are not compatible. So what do you say which one have a better sound quality?

Personally, I prefer the beats audio mod. I think it sounds better, especially with the other enhancements than can be enabled in the walkman player. Though you do need a good set of headphones to tell the difference.......

No problem, this is by far better than any enhancement Ive heard, and dont use any cheap speakers if you enable bass boost in dsp manager, lol
This is not development, more like an add-on.
Not sure if it would be best in apps or themes.

This is great because this was always one of the advantages iPhone had over and it was sound volume and quality. With these mods its just another reason to stay away from iOS

Updated the OP with an experimental version for GB MTD roms, try it out?
Its a tough call for my ears to notice any difference..
Prior to flashing this, I was using my Hi-Fi Sennheiser CX880s, Voodoo Sound + PowerAmp Pro with Rock set as the equalizer... sounds about the same, if anything less powerful, but idk.
Note: All my music is Flac @ 1032kbps. So.. no change I can tell with these audiophile ears..
Edit: Maybe this isn't even taking effect for me or something?
I should probably remove some factors and re-listen to my music with Stock CM10, no Voodoo Sound, or PowerAmp Pro listen carefully, then flash this, listen to it again, and decide if its enough to replace PowerAmp Pro + Voodoo Sound.
Double Edit:
Test 1: With Voodoo Sound, this mod, & Poweramp Pro, it sounds just about as good as it did without the mod.
Without PowerAmp Pro, and using Apollo Player + DSP Rock Equalizer + Voodoo Sound.. although my Sennheisers still sound amazing, it sounds like ****.
Will evaluate the next test as I said I would without the other tweaks and see if it is still worth it.
Test 2: I tried without any mods. Of course, it sucked. Although trying poweramp pro, it sounded better. I then flashed this, tried with Apollo, I *think* I heard its effect, seemed to give a slightly muddier bass, I then went on and messed with DSP equalizer, put it to rock, then to bass, then I added bass boost into the mix, I the went from slight to extreme.. slightly more noticeable bass? Went to dynamic compression, set the effect to louder/extreme, sounded like muddy bass/trying too hard. I then got out of that tried poweramp pro and it still sounded better, even the bass equalizer preset sounded better than DSP's, I then proceeded to flat on equalizer preset and adjusted the bass knob on poweramp pro, still sounded like a champ.
The verdict: I'll stick to Voodoo Sound + PowerAmp pro with my CX880s and Flac Music @ 1032 kbps.
THANK YOU though OP for posting this, I just couldn't get better sound with my carefully selected setup. I do encourage users who listen to mp3s and cheaper earphones to give this a shot though. Who knows? Maybe your sound quality will try to compensate and mimic my hi-fi setup.

Hey XDA, new member here trying to get past the 10 post limit so I can dive into the Android Development Forum. I've always trusted XDA's members for the best for my EVO, have had it for 2 years and have experimented with quite a few ROM/kernel/mod combinations, and I'm just starting to post. My question is, what has been the best sound setup you have come across with the EVO, and why, how, etc.
I've tried maaany things, but I seem to find the best sound quality in Sense ROMs with DSP Manager, no Beats or ACID sound mods. Just throw in PlayerPro with DSP pack and it feels like your a sound engineer at a Rush concert. Can anyone 1up that?
Cheers.

you are really playin the game of personal opinions here. i have to agree with you dsp manger with a eq built in to the player is a good way to go. I currently use winamp pro with dsp but on cm7.2 and it sounds real solid. I have a galaxy nexus i actually use dsp and aosp with but i havent quite dedicated it to music as much since its only 16 in comparison to the 32 gb i have in my evo.

Ok, I'll bite!
Tried quite a few sound mods - my favorite combo is:
AC!D Audio Engine: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2002367&highlight=acid
then flashing this
Megabass Audio Booster: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2074977
On CM7 base roms it adds a modified DSP EQ
On CM9/CM10 roms it adds a modified Beats DSP EQ
With the AC!D engine as a base, I found nothing that sounds better!
So you're recommending the cm9 base?

Why don't you try Some good Music Players.I'll Suggest Poweramp or Neutron Music Player.
Poweramp Music Player: Good Balance between intuitive ui and good sq.
Neutron Music Player : Arguably without eq has better sound quality than
poweramp at the expense of ui (below average actually)
Hope this helps :angel:

Hi ALL!
Ever wanted to have a real bass boost effect on your Galaxy S3 GT-I9300? Sure you have heard off beats bass mods but have they ever worked for you?
So far, I have been tinkering around on Sony Audio effects mod, Beatsbass mods and none of them gave me the best bass boost I ever wanted until I tried using this one small library and audio config. I have created a flashable zip for this so just flash it via clockwork recovery.
Requirements for Your Satisfaction:
- Android default MusicFX
- Google Play Music app
- Remove other soundfx modifications
- Stock kernel (may work with other kernels but not tested)
- Stock ROM (may work with other ROMs but not tested)
- Android Jelly Bean ROM(really, who still uses ICS on S3 GT-I9300?)
Whats Diff/New:
- 6 Graphical Equalizer for frequencies: 15Hz, 62Hz, 250Hz, 1kHz, 4kHz, and 16kHz
- Lower and "real" Bass Boost effect
Compromises:
- No presets available. (You may try the settings I have in the screenshot)
- 3D Effect is not as cool as SRS but stereo range is wide on this mod. (the 3D effect only adds echo. The reason for that is to make sure that the bass boost is not overpowered - not sure if that is right description to it.)
Ever since I discovered the rich bass boost plus clear audio on this mod I made, I have been listening to music all day with my S3 plus an Audio-Technica ATH-SJ33 headset, I felt like I have the whole 5.1 Sound System in my head.
Hope you'll love the effects.
Added Android JB 4.3 version.
Fixed the Android JB 4.3 version flashable zip file.
Added support for Android KitKat 4.4 version.
High Quality = High Quality
And yes, you'll need a headset/earphones that can handle low frequencies like 5-10Hz with high tolerance as this can relatively damage "cheap" headsets.
WARNING: Do not expose your ears to very high volume with this mod for a very long time.
Or your ears will explode!
Can you make this for CM 10.1?
Using this on UltimaROM 12.0.1 and playing modern swedish death metal with low end frequencies at pretty high levels (not selfdistorted but close) is freaking enjoyable thru my Koss headphones. Good work, dude! You gived me an reason to get some extra boner from now on.

Works great with the leaked 4.2.2!

OK I'm just trying to find our why a specific audio mod works perfectly on one ROM and not the other.. For example...
I'm using KingBeatz audio mods
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=31355027
Here the scenario I can flash these mod. One has audioFX which will improve PowerAmp,Pandora etc.
One mod is basically a hard core Modified DSP manager Known as Beatz.
If am on liquidsmooth I can remove the current DSP built in and flash both mods but I will lose the audioFX sound enhancement on Liquidsmooth basically just leaving The modified DSP.
But if I flash both mods on Tasks AOKP it will keep both audio enhancements so it makes it a universal System wide AudioMod.
Does any one have any input on why the mods will work on one ROM vs another???

Thru power amp you'll need to go to settings audio, advanced tweaks and disable direct volume control. Then use the Viper app to get the desired sound.
It should work on Pandora as well since its not just an equalizer that stick with a music player but an overall app that works with anything that comes out of headphones, loudspeaker or Bluetooth
