My magician speaker blew up, and i sent it for repair. They fixed it 3 weeks ago.
Now i am at exactly the same point, my loudspeaker blew up again.....I donnot use any music or loud bass songs on it.....
so, i thought i would be better of with a newer one (stronger speaker) that i would installed it on it myself.....
is there a way to know what better loud speaker i should put in it?
Any info on this subject is appreciate it....
what is the max power output of the current speaker?
Hi NYPD,
after reading a few posts about "blown" speakers I personally guess it isn't the speaker itself which is the problem. Most of the time it's the connection between the speaker and the motherboard which is faulty.
Have a look at this and that post.
Greetings,

The volume on the HD7 seems low anybody else have this issue?
i dont dont have a hd7 but if you have any wp7 games downloaded it might be worth going back into the game, and checking the volume on the game first, it seems that game volume can also affect the system volume as a whole. increasing it could help if that is the problem. just a guess.
Nope, no problems here, but I use a stereo bluetooth headset with mine. The only bugbear is that the sound for videos always comes out the main speaker, which is a pain when playing games with video sections, like Need for Speed Undercover.
Have you already downloaded the sound enhancer form the htc hub. It makes a huge difference.

I have but not much louder.
Are you talking about speakerphone?
If so then yes. The volume is lower on that than everything else, otherwise, the phone is loud.
I just got a replacement hd7 phone yesterday and this ones speakerphone is way louder then the launch day phone I had. Even vibration is stronger. I dont know if it just me, but the screen colors look brighter and not as washed out as previous phone. I wish I could compare with other phone but screen broke on that one.
Is that a hardware issue? HTC mozart is ****ing loud. Max volume without my ears searing is 22...
You guys are lucky still, volume on the lg optimus 7 is horrible. It is half to 3 quarters of my volume on my N80 or Omnia 1. Vibration is beyond horrible I tried another unit to be sure it wasnt mine seems to be it the handset.
LG Optimus great phone but 3 bad things that annoy me.
Speaker volume overall - poor
Vibration - extra extra crap
The Buttons for Back/Search - make too much of a clicking sound.
If anyone has a htc surround 7 - how is the speaker/vibration for that I am thinking of switching to that. I love the windows 7 os
I too find the volume on my HD7 too low. Although there are some songs that play with loud volume. I'm wondering does zune convert some of the files when we transfer them?
Yeah I too can barely hear the speaker and my headphones are super low too. I tried to watch some netflix on the light rail yesterday and I couldn't hear a thing. Is there anything else beside the HTC app to increase the sound?
My TouchPro2 was hecka loud compared to this. Speaker and Headphones.
I just got mine yesterday (10-03-11) did the mango update and the volume is CRAP.. there is no way these alarm sounds or even trying to use it as a gps in the car even makes sense... the volume SUCKS..
I really think it is app based. for some reason, my Slacker Radio got a little louder since my Mango update... its been a little bit louder i think. Or that might just be me. Let me know XDA people!
I've noticed that quality of sound when I connect speakers (3.5mm Jack) is poor.
Music sounds tinny and distorted. If I play the same file using my Nexus S, it sounds crystal clear.
Has anyone else found this or do I have a fault with my unit?
Thanks.
I'm also interested. It could be a deal breaker for me. It would be great if someone could dig up what A/D converter is used in Transformer (but it would probably require taking it apart ). It would be great if USB sound cards worked with Android.
If anyone who has one could run a test it would be much appreciated.
I'll add in my request for some info. Good sound is vital...
Do you get bad sound with headphones as well? Or just with the speakers?

Headphones a well.
I'm more inclined to think it's a fault as it really is awful.
just tested music via spotify. Sound through headphones is fine - pretty decent in fact.
<edit> youtybe vids sound fine also. <edit>
heard reports sound quality is fine, could be a damaged one you have?
You should also try checking if it's possible to put the jack deeper into the slot. The behavior you observed could be caused by bad contact. Also move the jack a little (rotate it) during playing music and check if the sound quality changes - maybe it's a little loose. But then it wouldn't be the same for headphones and speakers, so probably it's not it.
I got my transformer 32 two days ago and it worked perfectly, then today I have gotten my first SoD, and just recently my sound has gotten these same symptoms. Sound from both the speakers and headphone jack is very, VERY tinny and low quality. I thought it was linked to an app I just installed as it was not installed before when it worked fine, but the problem persists post-uninstalation. If anyone finds a fix to this PLEASE SHARE. I'd really rather not have to do an RMA already! :/
UPDATE: Now there is no sound period. I can not get anything to play from the speakers, headphones, OR over bluetooth. fun! *sarcasm*
UPDATE 2: Restart, sound is back, still fuzzy. Possibly a SRS Driver error? Perhaps the 'SRS Surround Sound' is more trouble than it's worth. Anyone know of a default driver that I could try and flash?
UPDATE 3: Sucked it up, backed up my files and did a factory reset. Sound is now back to normal sans the bad app. I'll update if it goes to **** again but let's just get this fixed Asus!
Interesting thread! I'm on day 4.5 and my speakers are tinny, which I'm saying is ok for audio only..yet not music, not even close.
But, a new world with headphone/ear buds and I discovered something interesting that I don't understand after playing around for 2+ hours. Yet now I'm really, really pleased.
My new Monster Turbine ear buds that are really nice on my iPod Touch to enhance give me an tinny sound like quality and are my newest. A 'no go' and I almost thought I had speaker problems.
But, my regular/standard iPod Touch ear buds and my Boise Headphones are really, really nice for sound quality...bass, deep sounds, etc.
I know I don't know enough about ear buds/headphones, but surprised that the ones I thought would work the best...didn't come close.
I do plan to watch them while I still have my 'return period', but super nice audio with the right ear buds/headphone only(s).
Similar issues:
Sound was fine for the first 3 or 4 day, then i started experiencing the same tinny sound, vocals almost seemed slurred audio quality was so bad, however notification sounds seemed fine. This lasted 2 days then magically the sound returned to normal. Again about 3 days later the same poor sound returned, so I searched these forums and someone had posted doing a factory reset which worked, however I do not want to be having to do this each and every time the sound goes fuzzy. Since the .13 update the whole poor sound good sound returning has happend once more....very frustrating
My 3.5mm jack works fine (day 6 for me). Sound quality is better than any other android device I've used. Volume is a little low but otherwise sounds fine.
My sound goes to crap every few days. Crackling, distortion, etc. A reboot always fixes temporarily. Clearly a software problem.
Going to miss the Dolby Mobile sound on the Iconia. While not perfect it was really good. Will see how the TF sound stacks up when it comes in tmrw!

You mentioned a bad app. What app was it?
I've just sound tested my TF the other day, and was quite impressed with the sound quality from the drivers. I did a comparison between my TF and my iPod touch using sennheiser bass driven earbuds. I'm definitely getting more clarity and bass from the TF than I am from the iPod. It sounded amazing. With that said though, I know there's a bug sometimes where I guess the sound driver isn't working properly and my movies start sounding like they're using 8-bit sound output.

Damn! I thought my TF had rubbish sound, and then found this thread, rebooted and sound became magnificent!
Hey everyone, well I'm a fairly new T-Mobile customer & Sensation owner and while I really love the phone I'm not the happiest about the speaker or headset volume level. I can turn the level all the way up when I have a headset plugged in and it's no where near loud enough for me when listening to music. Is this the norm for all you Sensation owners as well?
Now I've read about the crappy speaker that is used and I've followed the music player thread hear as well I've tested Volume+ and nothing seems to change the loudness level. All of the apps were just the free verions and I know that Volume+ lets you go to +8 in the paid version but I just wish something could boost the volume to a noticeable difference!
It's getting to the point where I may swap this out for the Amaze or possible Consider the GSII.
The stock handsfree headset is pure crap, mind you. Just get a pair of good headphones and a Beats ROM and you'll be all set
Anyone else is struggling with SUPER LOW headphones volume? Before OP6 I had HTC One M8 which was LITERALLY 3 times louder. I am using SoundMagic E10c(cable, jack) and I am wondering if similiar problem exists for BT headphones. Need some way to have music with decent volume, since I am listening to music basically all the time.
Any way to fix this?
That's true. I hope that there will be a Sound mod in the future

The same problem doesn't exists in case of BT headphones for sure... Its just bad with wired one's, really underwhelming! Waiting for some good audio mod to maybe help fix that issue if possible.

My earphone volume is fine. Using non standard music player/ equaliser and good bearphones
I don't know why people say it's quiet on headphones I've 3.5 jack. I use bullets V2 from OnePlus and the volume and quality are fine.

I haven't noticed a difference in the sound over my LG HBS850 (Bluetooth), and I haven't tried my 3.5mm cable headphones yet.
I have OP6. After reading the complaints here checked with different brands of earphones. The sound is really loud and clear. Even at medium levels I have sufficient loudness. Equalizer too works well. I checked the earphone audio in Player Pro music player, Saavan streaming music and YouTube. I am very much happy with what I hear in terms of loudness and fidelity. I don't think the mentioned complaint is true universally.

I experienced the volume loss as well. When using the phone in my car I have to adjust the radio by almost 10 ticks (from volume 18-20 to up to 30 now).
Yesterday in my car with the oneplus 3 no problems, but the 6 has some very low volume settings. It's kinda frustrating at this point, the volume sucks and the quality doesn't match up to what the oneplus 3 could produce. I think it has something to do with the equalizer that oneplus 6 now offers. This morning while trying to adjust the settings I've downloaded the snapdragon equalizer on top of the baked in equalizer and that seems to kinda do the trick (boosts the volume by a bit).
Oh boy, same here. Using a pair of M50x's, they don't need much power to get going but I've noticed it's not as loud as my 3. I have a fiio K1 amp but didn't work on the 3, figured it might! work on the 6 but nope! so I guess I'm stuck using a amp with the headphone jack.
Oneplus really needs to improve their audio output power, that's for sure.
So I just noticed something. Music is actually fine and loud ONLY when i am choosing ringtone. Spotify/Google Play/VLC etc. all is silent, even after installing Viper4Android it's still to silent.
I agree, the volume of the headphone jack is very low and the overall sound quality is bad. My HTC one A9 is brilliant when using audio files from the jack. It's loud and clean but the OP6 is too low and very bad sounding. Not for audiophiles. I tried with Viper and it's the same.
I felt low volume intially , but after 5.1.8 update I think the volume is good. (May be its just my feel ?)
I tried with ATH M50x and samsung stock earphone.
With the filo e7K the sound quality is good enough ...

I have cheapo ear buds with 16 ohm impedance, just like yours. Anything above 80% volume is uncomfortably loud. Perhaps your unit is defective?
chiming in, no issue here, brand new, white OP6... I'm smitten
for me volume too low even with viper4android
Massively loud with black player, amp and good bass earphones, even the speaker is much louder than my HTC 10
Give ElementalX kernel a try, I've flashed it and boosted my amp output. It helps! with viper4android I don't really need an external amp anymore. But.. it's still better

Same here until i have changed the headphones value (Rx1 and Rx2 mix digital volume) on the "mixer path tavil.xml" file located here : Root/vendor/etc
90 is perfect and you will see a huge difference ! Try and let me know. If you prefere i Can also send you my customised file ?
Don't what y'all talking about, the sound over the headphone jack is so loud to the point I set it only at 60-70%... And the quality is great too, Had a nexus 6p and LG G5 before this one.. but i tried a lot of phones
This one is really loud with great quality overall

Probably because you're leaving outside Europe and not aware of the EU Volume limitation...
