Audiophiles unite! - T-Mobile LG G2x

Just wanted to open a thread here for any audiophiles to share their audio equipment setups, apps, and EQ settings.
I have some Bose IE2 headphones for daily use, Beats Studio, and sometimes I use my 6.1 speaker system to play through.
I use DSP manager for EQ and these are my DSP settings http://db.tt/ZKOAhjRw
I use a slight bass boost and extreme compression. Also using voodoo.
Please, share your setup, whatever app or equipment.

Wow that is an extreme equalizer setting. Does your headset over amplify mids or so u just like extreme highs and lows?
I have klipsch image 1's and they sound OK but I think this phone blows for actual audio playback.
Also I use dsp with rock eq and slight compression and bass boost. Also have voodoo sound to control volume.
What player are you guys using as well? I prefer power amp and I use play music player for streamed content.

Really don't like my phone for music either but I use power amp as well. Anyone have the audio technias ath-m50 pros that I linked above? I've seem good reviews on it so I really want to buy it. The only problem is that it cost just a much as a g2x now. I always change DSP to what mood I'm in and what music type

Why? Other than capicity, I don't see a reason to. My phone has better audio quality than my iPod Classic, and I don't have to carry two devices with me.

Let's see if the XDA App will cooperate tonight...
I use Power Amp as my music player. Here's screenshots of my EQ settings. I mostly listen to classic rock with a little bit of game soundtracks.

I used Screenshot UX from the Play Store to take the screenshots. It lets you save them as .jpg files, so it uploads fine through the XDA App.

Omg I never thought I'd say this but I actually like your setup, I thought it was too extreme but you can definitely here the instruments more clearly, as if it was crisp. I don't know how to explain it but I might use it. Btw with my set up I was listening to 100 years and I lie that set up with that one

Volume being very low....

The volume on my g2x was awesome the first two days I had it. Now its very low even with the volume turned all the way up. I can barely hear it anymore. Any thoughts?

I noticed this as well. Sound on calls is very low, when I listen to Pandora it is very low. I used to have a Mytouch Slide and when I listened to Pandora in my car my car radio was at volume 14 and it was loud. With the G2x playing Pandora in my car my car radio is on like 24 to match the same loudness as my Mytouch Slide on volume 14. This is with the G2x volume on max. Really disappointing. I did see a thread somewhere on here about changing the volume through a hidden menu but the values were hexadecimals or something and I'm not sure what they should be tweaked to. If anyone has any insight please share!
The app listed below works great for sound through the headphone jack.

Does this work for bluetooth headsets as well? I noticed that was quite low as well with headset volume on max and phone on max.
I haven't tried it, but if I had to guess I'd say no.

Unfortunately, to answer a question earlier in the thread, it does not work with bluetooth; in fact, it mutes the sound completely over bluetooth when it is enabled.

Yes. Tell the almost of the malfunction and say you just want a working phone. And you need the speaker to work. And you paid for a phone with a working speaker as advertised.

Distorted ringtone

I just recently noticed that my g2x plays songs perfectly through the music player without any distortion but if i apply a mp3 as a ringtone it becomes distorted when i receive calls. i know its not just the file because i have tried multiple songs. anyone else have this problem? any help is appreciated thanks!
I've noticed the same thing. In fact, I have to lower the volume of my ringtone below maximum, or it is weird sounding. But when I play the same mp3 through Music player, I can be full volume without any distortion.
Anyone know of a fix?

i have the same issue as well... if you're using cm7 there is dsp manager so you might want to play around with the settings. I haven't been able to yet, but you might give that a shot.
just fyi i have this problem on both stock and cm7
Same problem here. It almost sounds like the woofer is blown or something. My 10 year old Nokia has better speakers than my G2X.

And it doesn't seem to be a function of whether the speaker sucks or not...because when you play the same mp3 file through any media player, it sounds fine. But when a call is coming in at the same time that the mp3 is being played, it's distorted. It's almost as if the phone is using all of it's resources for the phone call, and only allocating a fraction of what it would normally allow to play the mp3.
I think you are on to something here. I'm surprised there is no fix to this problem yet. Does it not bother everyone else?

This phone is REALLY getting annoying... BSOD everytime, distorted ringtone, slow loading and freezes... Duh, wish I waited more and took the SGS2...
Anyone know if it's just mp3's as ringtones that are affected? How about ogg's? If noone else has tried, I"ll try later on.

Vooodooo sound

I don't really know if I have things set up right or not but I cannot tell any diffference between different settings in voodoo sound. I am using infused 2.1 by gtg and bedwas kernel.

I did. I configured it different ways, listening to music after each change and didn't notice any difference in volume.
Now this was through the speaker and not headphones.
Does it only work for headphones.

In my opinion Volume+ boost is the best app for sound boost

SuperCurio's Voodoo LOUDER app made for GNote. Boost done at hardware level for cleanest sound possible. The best volume booster out there hands down.

+1 to Voodoo Louder. I use it with poweramp and teh synergistic effect it yields is just WOW.
It's like, if u have NOTE, u should have this Voodoo Louder.
spectrum analyzer effect?
Do we even have equalizer/spectrum analyzer effect app like EQu from elephantcandy app? I'm more interested in the spectrum effect.. would be cool if playing in the car.

Good EQ Settings and App?

What eq settings would you recommend for the Rezound audio mod? I listen to mostly rap and classic rock so I'm looking for something that I could use for both without having to change it for each song. I also like deep bass but not overly loud. I have beats headphones.
