I bring you DSP-Manager 2.35. Thisone works on stock and custom ROMs (thoroughly tested). Unlike the ones already posted in the SGf thread, the sound remains consistent (does not suddenly go up, causing destruction of your earbuds).
Oh, and it works with stock music player as well.
For music afficionados, this one is for you. For that deep bass thumping sound, just enable compression (moderate), bass boost (moderate), equalizer (rock) and Virtual Room (large room is nice).Credits to the original creators (I need not mention them)
And finally,
the update script:
dsp-manager235-signed.zip
Just flash it with stock recovery or CWM.
It works both ways
Enjoy!
press thanx if i helped....
Awesome mate
Nice update....

Just did some searching and found this.
It's cyanogens DSP Manager and in my honest opinion, the best equalizer out there, it's a must have.
all you do is download the APK(don't download the zip) and install it and just tweak the settings afterwards.
Kind if works, bass does nothing but equalizer works perfectly, suprised this works without a library
Cool maybe its possible to get the gesture lock from cm7 too.

This apk has the library packed with it.
Bass boost worked for me same as all the others.
I'm on 2.3.4 for r800a
Ok, let me preface this by saying I don't know what I'm doing, but I got DSP manager working brilliantly. Your mileage may vary and I'm not responsible if this messes up your device - MAKE A BACKUP FIRST!
My current setup:
VZW SGS3 w/ the K1 base.
CM10 Official & CM10 Nightlies (I've also used this on ICS and JB based TouchWiz ROMs)
Stock SGS3 headphones (they sound fantastic w/ this DSP Manager)
V6 Supercharger with the new Maximum Overdrive Multitasking Mod (may actually hurt the DSP effects)
Imoeseyon's Lean Kernel (Experimental) 1.10
I've tried just about all the DSP Managers I could find, Beats Audio, AwesomeBeats, as well as the new AC!D add-on (v4 and v5). They either don't work at all or they severely distort the bass.
What Works:
Using CM10 at least, this will provide excellent audio control in most apps. I've confirmed it working in Google Play Music, Google Play Movies & TV, Plex, PowerAmp, Pandora and YouTube. You will know it will work b/c (using the stock headphones at least) it will literally hurt your ears with clean, powerful bass. I've noticed in TW-based ROMs the DSP Manager doesn't seem to work with Google Play Music or the stock music player, but does work with most everything else.
Issues:
The only issue I've noticed is the DSP Manager will randomly turn off after 15-20 minutes sometimes, but this is known CM10 issue, which is what this DSP Manager came from. Wiggling the headphone plug or actually unplugging and plugging back-in usually fixes it. Also, the Dynamic Range Compression only seems to work in CM10 (maybe other non-TW based ROMs), but it actually kills all the bass, so I don't even use it. I've also noticed that the DSP Manager only works on certain songs using Google Play Music, but I've only noticed this using CM10 and V6 Supercharger, so I suspect those may be the culprit; on CM10 stable with no V6 Supercharger, it worked great.
My settings:
DRC: Off
Bass Boost: Enabled, Moderate
Equalizer: Enabled, Rock
Loudness Compensation: Stronger (this made a big difference on the bass output)
Headset Virtual Room Effect: Disabled
Enjoy!

I don't really care what the ROM looks like although it's definitely a plus if it looks good. I'm mainly looking for a ROM that's designed specifically for music usage & playback. I'm going to download Voodoo Sound on top whatever ROM I flash unless it's included. But before I downloaded Cyanogen or something I was checking with you guys if you had seen any audiophile specific ROMS around lately? This one looked promising but it's not a Verizon model. Is there any ports around? Or would this even be worth it with the Voodo Sound on top with Neutron player?

Thank you guys for all of your help. I appreciate it. & this may be in the wrong place but I'm not sure so if it is then my apologies.
From a code/programming perspective, there's no difference in roms, other than the audio add-ons they offer... but those add-ons are nothing more than compression and equalizer tools. Beatz Audio, DSP Manager, Voodoo... all are just compression tools to 'beef up' sound and they give you equalizing customization, but you can do that kind of equalization with apps like Doubletwist. The digital compression those add-ons and apps use is teh evil if you're an audiophile, because it overcompensates and 'chops the head' off sound.
You're not going to get an audiophile experience on a phone, because of the hardware used; there's always going to be some signal to noise ratio loss from the headphone plug and device board. Bluetooth can reduce the S/N reduction, but most aftermarket roms aren't working well with BT for prolonged use (I've had good luck with the 4.3 roms, but not 4.4). If you want the best performance, get an AOSP-based rom, then add in all the apps you want to eqing.
I'm a music producer, so I try to avoid all that compression crap whenever possible... eqing is about all I'll do to a properly-mastered release. Case-in-point, I play older jazz FLACs all the time on Doubletwist; I use the EQ feature and it sounds about as good as you can get on an S3.

That's very helpful. So what's your favorite player then? I don't necessarily like carrying around a phone & a player for mobile listening but if I have to then so be it. I've been using Poweramp EQ'd pushing my vsonic gr07's for portable use. It was pretty good with the FLACS I have but I feel like it could be better. How much of a difference does the Voodoo mod make? Will it even work with Verizon galaxy s3 since it wasn't shipped with the Wolfson DAC? Either way I'm using a FiiO E17 with it which has Wolfson. I'm just trying to get this all figured out.
Truth be told, I haven't found that one player I really love. If I could mix Winamp with Doubletwist, I'd have my perfect player... DT doesn't have very good playlist support and Winamp is clunky, but I love the feel of DT.
Voodoo is really similar to CM's DSP Manager and is a more customizable version of BeatsAudio; I honestly don't know if Voodoo works with the S3, but DSP manager does. The both offer compression and EQ control, so if you have low-quality MP3s, they'll sound better than stock sound will make them. If you have a music app like Poweramp or Doubletwist, you don't need to use the EQ control in Voodoo, so what's left is just the compression feature. Personally, I stay away from compression apps/mods like the plague, because they end up altering the sound of the file and, IMO, if it's a properly mastered file/recording, you don't need compression (except for maybe some tube compression on a standalone amp for some 'warmer' sound... but that's not applicable here).
I stick to using EQ controls in the players apps. If you try that and just don't find they offer you the sound you want, then try an app like Voodoo. But be forewarned, I've seen (and experienced) some issues on other devices where apps like that can alter the audio framework of the rom permanently, so even after you uninstall it, the sound remains affected.
Best is in the eye of the beholder.
Users are expected to do their own research and try Roms to see what suits them best.

i tried this mod and it is working great with the stock music app and the stock video app you will find new options in the app equalizer called pure surround
Brief Description of what mod does:
eXtremeBeats™ Studio and eXtraBass is a sound mod, infused with mods like PureAudio, AwesomeBeats, and BeatsAudio. This mod will give you clearer and in general more bassier sound where possible. You'll also hear many sounds you may have never heard in a android phone/tablet before. But i suggest some decent headphones to really enjoy this mod, but even with stock headphones you will have a great listening in experience.
