What earplugs are you using with O1

What earplugs/headset/earphone are u using with this handset and how does it perform..Is the audio quality good?? What is the price that you bought it for?? Is it comfortable and easy to carryout around?? Wud u recommend it ???

Sony EX35LP ...
bought it when I was in Japan so dont remember the price ( maybe 1200 INR ??)
performance is decent ( I have used em previously with my Nokia 5800xm ... obviously they sounded better on the Nokia) ...

A super cheap but decent Creative headset xD Lacks bass.

I am using Creative EP630 its kinda very famous here and also the market lacks variety..I wud say the audio is an "big improvement" over the stock headset..However EP630 does not respond well to high frequencies producing some shrill and hiss noises..ITs Worth 700INR~USD$16 here

Dr.Dre Beats are the way to go

Philips SHP2700 are quite good. Not so mobile, but cheap and the sound quality is way better than my previous Koss Porta Pro (25th anniversary is such a crap).

default earplug with poweramp on classic preset = ownage

use the original earplug. but it was painful in my ear.

i m thinking to buying Philips She9500 next month...India is a very poor market for quality earpieces from klipsch or seinheiser..they are friggin costly..Philips/Creative or maybe SOny on Seinheiser

hiss problem exists with any other headset, except original

sennheiser HD202!!
AUSOME QUALITY....DA BEST WAY TO MAKE USE OF UR PHONE WEN ON DA MOVE FOR MUZIC!!
aaauuusssoooommee!!!

Between 20~30 USD depending on where you live

I am using the nuforce ne-6 headphones (same as ne-7 but no mic). Cost about $45CDN.

I use Soundmagic Pl-11. They are excellent for the price of $10-15.

FiiO E06 Portable Amplifier - My HOX is rocking!

If your looking for a way to improve or crank up the volume and overall music experience on your HOX? Check out the FiiO E06 Portable Amplifier. I paid about $25 from Amazon and i have been rocking with HOX since Tuesday. I'm blown away by the performance of this little Amp and its only about 1"x1".
Still playing with my configuration, but Volume+ not really needed and Beats Audio is off. Currently, have Equalizer paid version installed since this morning. The Amp has three built in Equalizers and a volume rocker on one side, using Shure SE210's IEM's.

I have the fiio e17, it works pretty good as an amp but I wished there's a way to use the DAC with the one x like the iPhone.

I'm about to purchase the Fiio E11 and VSonic GR07. I'm currently using Shure SE215. Trading up hopefully, but this little portable Amp is unbelievable.
What IEM's are you using?

Yeah I'm not a big fan of whatever DAC is in the One X, at all. It's too bad we can't use an external one.

Bluetooth Headphones/earbuds

I was wondering what Bluetooth headphones/ear buds you guys use our recommend. I'm tired of either getting wires in the way while I'm exercising our having then eventually fray and stop working. I've heard of Jay Buds but don't know a lot about them. Of course I would prefer not to sacrifice sound quality for convenience. Thanks.

If you really want top quality for music, no bluetooth headphone will ever compare to wired, but if you can deal with some quality loss, Bose makes a great bluetooth set, although very expensive. .The Motorola S10 is pretty good for the price

Moto s9. Absolutely love them. Sound is very good. I'd recommend over s10. S10 are less comfortable and more bulky IMO.

I'll second this, fair price for wireless with solid bass and clear vocals. And bonus, one charge lasts all day, from a set that is little more than the buds and the wire between them.

Thanks for the responses, I think I will be ordering a par of the jaybird bluebuds X this weekend

Updated: Headset for my new Nexus 4

Hi all,
I'm still looking for a decent headset for my Nexus 4. I've gone through browsing/reviewing many products this week, and I was dead certain I was going to get these SkullCandy Headsets but then found out the Mic is incompatible with Android phones.
I'm dead certain these 3 below are compatible with my Android device, please help me decide which one, thank you!

Apple EarBuds MB770G/B (£14.00)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apple_earbuds
Audio Technica ATH-C505iS (£14.50)
http://www.audiotechnicashop.com/index.php?route=product/product&path=91_87&product_id=330
Now, the Audio Technica one is a new discovery, I was browsing around today and I spotted this one on Amazon/Ebay but is cheapest on their main site which suits me fine.
I can get the Samsung's for £10, Apple EarBuds for £14 and Audio Technica for £14 also.
Please advise on which one you think is better and why. In my head, I think the Audio Technica would be best, why? I've heard people say the Apple EarBuds sound isn't all that, they break easily the cap on the earbud itself and where the wire goes into the actual earbud there is no protection, one bit of a pull and you could damage the earphone. Samsung seems the cheapest option out there, this is probably a freebie with most of the older Samsung's, I think this may be the S2 or S3 headset.
Audio Technica has a Sensitivity of 102dB, the Samsung has a Sensitivity of 105dB and the Apple EarBuds have a Sensitivity of 109dB.
Sorry, didn't expect to write so much, hopefully I can get some good feedback from you all

what about iphone 5's earbuds much better than the 4S ones but don't expect the controls to work though

I've heard that the Apple EarBuds don't really fit all ears and you can't use the standard foam/cotton caps on them to make it a bit more bigger for fit, also they are quite hard so can make your ears hurt if in for long. Read this from reviews.

Updated the whole thread, please advise, would love to order one of the 3 today after good feedback, cheers!

The audio tech... H are really good earbuds . Look at the reviews

I have a pair of OLD AT's and they are great for clarity, but literally NO bass. I cannot vouch for these though, sorry.
But I kinda like the a-jays one+
http://www.jays.se/a-jays-one-plus?___SID=U

You could definitely look into the senhiser range. I personally have a pair, mic less as I don't like in line microphones, and they are amazing.
The dB count on these can go up to a wopping 120, that's what mine do anyways. Definitely check them out!
Oh and I forgot to say, I brought mine for £10 but a good pair with mic can be around £20

I recommend this one all the time (pink) just cause it is 13 dollars cheaper but it gives incredible sound for a cheap price.

If you want extremely good sound quality and if you don't have much of a budget, I suggest the Bose Soundlink II

If you want good sound and more of a budget I suggest the Jambox.

There are many other types and brands, but when it comes to really good quality you gotta spend atleast over $100..

Completely agree with this. I have heard good things about the Jabra Solemate and even the Logitech UE boombox aswell as the beats pill but that is pushing $200+.
I would wait on a sale since big box stores like to put these portable speakers on sale and you could score a deal.

I've been super happy with my Logitech UE. A little pricey but great sound for the size along with a simple design (I'm not a fan of the gaudy alien egg design)

Check your local costco. They have a very big bluetooth speaker the size of those guitar speakers and they cost less than the logitech boombox ue.

I have the UE Boombox and it's great. You can connect via bluetooth up to 8 devices, has a good range, and battery lasts for about 8-10 hours.
