[Q] Sound quality SGR compare to SGS and SGS2 - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

Hi all. I'm user of SGS i9000 with voodoo sound and thinking about new phone. I wanted to buy new SGS2 i9100 but I was disappointed with sound quality which is important for me. Now I thinking about SGR.
Is sound quality of SGR better than SGS2?

I don't know, do you talk about headphones?
The problem comes when the phone is ringing, the speaker is behind the phone.

Actually yes, I talk about sound quality via headphone jack. This.is really important for me.

I didn't tried the SGS1 but the R sounds OK for my SH's.
But I have understood that we use same chip than S2 ( correct me if I'm worng)

Maybe somebody knows what sound hardware installed in SGR?

I had not listen SGS2, my iRiver s100 produse better sound, but it depends )
I re-mastered SGR standart garniture with Koss ear plugs and can say it can make a nice sound but not with default player i use Winamp Pro (not free) and tuned eqaliser to what i want the microshceme for codec is WM8994 so it is same as your SGS ) and if you satisfied with sound than go for it.

We have our own sound specialist you can ask: josjator
I quote him:
Hi! I wanted to share this. For those who got used to the great sound of the wolfson DAC with Voodoo sound (i9000, Nexus S, some LG, etc) and cannot find the same quality on the Galaxy R (looks like it has the same Yamaha DAC not-so-well implemented) I suggest to get a bluetooth receiver and use it to bypass the DAC. I am using the SE MW6000 and works great. It has a good and clear output and the songs title appears in the screen. Tested with Sennheiser px 100 II on both my i9000 (directly to headphones) and the MW600 (using the Galaxy R) and found a similar good sound

There is indeed a lot you can do with software if the hardware is ok...
You can simulate 7.1 surround sound on headphones with the right software.

Deleted: Posted a wrong fact and later found its different. Thanks to SPLESH.
Sorry for this mess~~

SGR uses the same Yamaha DAC as SGS2. Unlike SGS1 which uses wolfson DAC, which has got good feedback, SGR/SGS2 is not going to be better than eacch other. Rather i expect a very similar performance.
If you are only looking for a great sound and nothing more, may be u can try HTC Sensation/Beats audio. Heard its quite good in terms of audio quality. But you have to live with the SENSE UI and all in HTC.

Sound promising. As I know Lg G2x has tegra and wolfson audio chip
. Maybe sound chip in tegra devices is a part of chipset.
So SGR has a wolfson chip, and supercurio's voodoo sound can be implemented?

Hi!
This is really, really interesting My observations were using Senheiser headphones with a i9000 (Voodoo Sound activated) vs stock i9103 only with the ARDATDAT kernel on KJ2. i9000 does sound better. Sorry if I confused anyone with my supositions (Galaxy R having a Yamaga DAC cause it didn't sound the same, but it's the Voodoo 128x Oversampling magic I guess).
As I have the paid version of Voodoo Sound, I tried to run it, just to see what happens:
Module need to be loaded
Device or Kernel version not supported: not a problem if your kernel already support Voodoo Sound
Name: GT-I9103
Kernel version: 2.6.36.4-ARDATDAT-V02+
Superuser is avalaible

It's not support cause of sofware( And I ask the developer to support. the answer is soon)
I9103 is Dac wofson WM8994 as same as all Tegra 2 devices
And with default I9103 noway to equal sound quality with voodoo sound.

OF COURSE Voodoo Module is not loaded in my SGR kernel. It was just to see how it behaves since the paid version tries to load the module on hot. Guy.

Answer is in a few posts before:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20707497&postcount=15

SGR sound very close to Voodoo SGS1!
I can confirm that SGR has FAR SUPERIOR headphone/line out audio quality as compared to SGS2. While I do not have a SGS1 for comparison, but its quite similar with great volumes and ultra low IMD+THD+N just like it is on SGS1 with Voodoo Sound.
I still hope Supercurio can somehow work on developing Voodoo modules for this phone.

Sent from my Infused & Voodooed Infuse 4G
it is online isnt it???
EDIT: nope its not. they have it right on their web page though
well the original add in january said "1080P video" or something, the tab can record in 1080p so there was no reason to think the infuse wouldnt at the time. samsung didnt release official specs but phone arena is lame for not updateing with the actually specs. those sites are often speculating but should correct themselves. i recently saw the sgs2 specs on that site list the processor as "Dual-core XMM6260, 1200 MHz" that's funny because it might come with an exenos orion processor or a tegra 2 depending on the market. the number phone areana litsted is an intel made radio for hspa+! how did they get that as a processor?
the camera sensor is the exact same as the one in the galaxy s2. i believe they just disabled the 1080p option in the camera settings. they probably had a framerate issue with this having a slower processor. maybe itll be added back with the gingerbread update or we might be able to pull the camera software from the s2 and slap it on ours.

i believe the tab can do 1080p recording, same processor, same ram, more screen resolution to hog cpu power supporting the view finder and less cpu frequency, im pretty sure the infuse has the potential. also the sensor has less to do with it than you think. for instance 1080P resolution is only about 2.1mp. they probably just dont feal like the infuse needs 1080p recrding, if people knew it could do it then why would they buy a dual core phone? the actual functionality difference between a hummingbird and a tegra is minimal actually there are many things the hummingbird does better! and with less ram at that! if the infuse gave you everything then why buy a sgs2?
what tab are you talking about? both the samsung galaxy tab original and 10.1 come with 3mp. the original could only record at 480p and the 10.1 at 720p. the original came with a 1ghz hummingbird and the 10.1 comes with a tegra 2.

ok maybe I'm wrong. I thout I saw an discussion that,said the 7 in tab could do 1080p recording a long time ago, people wondered if we could get that on the captivate. could be more phone areana mis information.

24bit/96kHz .wav audio support

My SGH-I337 can play back .wav at up to 24bit/48kHz but not 96kHz using the default (Samsung?) Music player app. I'm pretty certain that the Qualcomm DAC on my S4 supports 96kHz. I can playback 24bit/96kHz using the Poweramp app but someone suggested that the decoding used by Poweramp is all software based and will probably use more cpu.
Is there any way to get the default (Samsung?) Music player to support 24/96?
Also what about DLNA streaming support? Assuming your DLNA renderer device supports 24/96, will the S4 "negotiate and accept" that and not do any downconverting (to say 48kHz) or downsampling (to say 16 bit) ??
If anyone has any specification for the Qualcomm DAC used in the SGH-I337 I'd really like to see it.
https://twitter.com/supercurio/status/312378336972242944
So AT&T #GalaxySIV uses @qualcomm audio solution, and its Audioflinger is configured to upsample everything at 48kHz. Not good.
So bs..... My infuse had a very good Wolfson...
But who really cares, unless you have great headphones or good speakers... Blah is a mobile... no expectations...

I do...I have great headphones and studio monitors...that's why I have poweramp...only use it on the songs the phone can't natively support :/ unfortunately because of my case limiting the size of what can fit in my 3.5 mm input, music on this phone has been mediocre - at least I still got my infuse with Wolfson dac for music

i9500 DAC vs i9505 DAC

Just thought I'd throw my two cents out there. I have the international i9500 version of the galaxy s4 and it was kind of irritating me. The camera was slow and buggy and the phone heats up intermittently.. Not to mention samsung botched the implementation of big.LITTLE... I decided to buy the i9505, which has a good camera, is as fast as the octa and doesn't overheat.
Anyway I listen to music all the time (I listen with the Shure SE535s at the moment). All I have to say is that the DAC in the i9505 is rubbish compared to the Wolfson 8740 in the i9500.. For this reason only I have decided to keep the octa and ditch the i9505. I don't mind living with the little flaws in the i9500 for the sake of the amazing sound it outputs. And I mean the difference is huge.
Just a heads up for anyone thinking of getting an S4 and who listens to a lot of music through head / earphone.
Correction, the DAC is actually the Wolfson WM5102E (low power version)
I've noticed this too coming from the i9300 to the i9505. Unfortunately I believe this is one of the drawbacks of the 9505.

You say the i9505 DAC is crap, if you dont mind, can you please try and explain the difference between the i9500 & i9505?
I have an i9505 and I think the music is the best from any other phone or music device I've used (HTC legend, HTC desire HD even an iPhone 4s with Beats™) or even a gen 4 iPod nano.
P.s. I do use power amp with tweeked sound settings and direct sound.

Yep sure: highs sounded tinny and harsh with the 9505.. When I swapped back to the i9500, the sound stage seemed larger, more details and the highs really natural.. both compaired using the Shure SE535 IEMs..
I have had the s3, note 2, htc one and using the s4 i9505 right now. My favorite is easily the note 2 with boeffla sound supported kernel, no complaints whatsoever. The htc one is a joke, sounds very similar to the one x which generally produces a weak sound. The s4 on the other hand sounded average with stock Rom, terribly weak on a Ge Rom but phenomenal with cm10.1 with dsp support. The difference between this and the Ge Rom is night and day.
Performance is equal or almost equal to the note 2. I am more than satisfied.
With the i9500 however I would not know

It's got nothing to do with volume. Did you read the previous posts? The quality of the sound output on the I9500 is superior.. And yes theres a little bit of extra volume.

yupp..u r rite man..for any android device, no need to listen std music player.We have poweramp.if compare with any iphone or thousand ipod player u can't beat poweramp player with audio tweak on kernel (siyah for S3 & perseus for S4).for me audio sound the most important on every my devices..
of course my fav. music is hardcore, that's why sound the most important to me..
mine only having issue with laggy sometimes.it's okay, nothing can be perfect on real life.
---------- Post added at 05:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:11 AM ----------
one more thing to ensure poweramp pushing to the limit, make sure u need earpiece with output more than 90db.it sure the "beats tour" one of perfect output with high clarity sound.
i9500 with poweramp + stweaks playing hardcore & metalcore.
this is wht i mean..
Thoroughly enjoy the audio quality in my I9500, it's very "full", clear with very deep bass, it's the 1st phone where I haven't changed the equaliser settings as it comes out-the-box amazing
Personally haven't had the lag problems with my I9500, so I'm very happy. Sony Exmor RS camera sensor, Wolfson DAC, great GPU, beastly A15 CPU at just 1.6GHz, loving it couldn't careless for LTE as it's still very limited down here.

Hey man, maybe you are talking about DSP? Digital Signal Processing? Hexagon, QDSP6V5A, 600MHz included in SoC Snapdragon 801.
Info from here http://www.qualcomm.com/snapdragon/processors/801
Whatever Qualcomm WCD9xxx variant is usually paried with 800/801 chips.
The Hexagon is not the DAC.
There's also an Audience ES325, likely mostly for microphone processing during calls.

It actually stands for Digital (to) Analog Converter, just for the record.
And since it's Snapdragon 801 powered, it's most likely a Wolfson DAC in whatever class coupled with the audio hardware so the sound quality should be very nice indeed.

I don't know of any Qualcomm devices with Wolfson DACs - it's Qualcomm's own codec solution.
I didn't mean the Snapdragon 801 SoC has a Wolfson DAC onboard, I meant it could be part of the hardware in the One itself - Samsung (for example) is well known to use Wolfson DACs on their devices that use Qualcomm processors (my Galaxy Express is a Snapdragon powered device with a Wolfson DAC onboard), so... guess we'll find out soon enough when someone get the One and does a full workup on it.

hello guyz....i m pretty much interested to know, that Voodoo sound in galaxy S GT i9000 Vs Latest viper4android on a mediatek mt6589 chip ? who will win in Audio quality in headphone ? .....i can understand that Wolfson chip on GT i9000 is superior , though, do you think that viper, after about 3 years, can come close to that monster wolfson dac on gt i9000 ?

I have used ivper4android since I first got my Galaxy SII. I have always felt that it is by far the leader in audio quality. It has gotten better with time. If I had a GT i9000 I would put it on and try it out.
hmmmmm.... thanks man... @abnxplosiv which dsp/dac did S2 have got under the hood? yamaha i guess ?
