I'm really happy with my new Nexus 5.
What i figured out - compared to my old Galaxy S4 - the Bluetooth Voice quality is really crappy.
I use BT only in my car, but the sound is horrible. Either for my side and also for opponent side.
Am I the only one with that issue?
Any idea how i could fix/improve it ?
What brand/model receiver are you using? I haven't had any complaints from people when talking through my JVC receiver and people sound good to me.
Fiscon Bluetooth Module fully integrated in my 2009 Audi A4. (basically it is the original Audi BT module)
With my Galaxy S4, voice quality is briliant. Not so with the Nexus 5.

Does anyone have a note 10.1 and a Samsung tv soundbar with bluetooth/wireless. Im thinking about buying a soundbar but was wondering if you could stream from the note to the soundbar, also what is the sound quality like?
i was thinking of buying the HW-E551 46". it has bluetooth where the some dont, and a review on the samsung site says streaming via bluetooth works for phones/tablets unsure of the sound quality though!
ok thats cool then, cheers. I have the Samsung d8000 46" and the note works well with, but now my only draw back is the sound quality from both devices. So I thought are these bluetooth sound bars up to scratch
That's a great question! I have a Bluetooth samsung soundbar at home, but I won't be home for a week and a half to check it out. The HDMI sound is excellent given the soundbar's size. But I have not tried it with Bluetooth yet. I don't know the model number off hand, it would be great if it had apt-x, but I doubt it does.
hi
I bought a headphone for my old phone (motorola atrix) which works quite well, now I got a nexus 4 and Galaxy s4, and I plug the headphone in to either phone, I can see the headphone is detected, but the sound is extremely low (max volume can barely heard soud). then I tried a iPod headphone and worked normally. I compare the plug, and they are exactly the same.
why is happening that? if I want to buy new headphone, how can I know if it's compatible?
I'm assuming you have high end headphones. If so then you'll need a portable dac/amp to make them sound good on the S4 or Nexus 4. The atrix has a Wolfson dac, which is better than Qualcomm's, and is more than likely why they sound good paired with the Atrix. The only Galaxy S4 variant with the Wolfson audio chip is the I9500.

I've been wondering how people's experience of the N5 audio aspect is, speaker wise and headphone wise. Would love to know feedback on this as to site chances in which I could enhance their audio aspects.
If anyone could answer the following queries I have I would gladly appreciate it.
- DSP tunneling (In regards to the 60 hr playback)
- Speakers are Stereo like the N7 2013 or Mono
- Audio codec being used (Preferably in the audio conf file under /system/etc/media_profiles.xml and mixer_paths.xml)
- List all the libs named audio in system/lib/hw
Thanks a million guys
Im pretty sure the audio is mono.

Yup the device output is mono and it's not very good either. The speaker falls weak of everything apart from Bass. It just feels to be lacking. I have used a G2 and the speaker is much louder and clearer, but the speaker on the G2 is only mono too which leads me to wonder whether the Nexus uses the exact same speaker as the G2 but the software on the Nexus limits it's output.
To me audio is quite a big thing, as ridiculous as it sounds I do sometimes play music out of my phone, and I also use YouTube out loud. I have noticed with the Nexus 5 is is sometimes hard to hear notification sounds, especially in the morning when I am on the bus for example. I know it's not just my device there are numerous reports about this around the web and do not confuse this issue with the tinny audio bug, this simply is the speaker quality.
In terms of headphone output, no complaints.

Sorry for the late reply but thanks for your input in this. Very helpful! I'll see what I can do. The idea being the dsp tunneling is what disturbs me the most. I'm tempted to order one to see about it.

The website for klipsch mentions 'Hi-Fi Bluetooth wireless technology (A2DP + aptX®) for lossless audio quality'
Now I know that aptx hasn't been standard in the nexus devices. A2dp has always worked though. Does anyone have insight into the headphones that may have used them or other knowledge.
I noticed that the video's audio quality is bad, or at least for me. Any good microphones that'll go into the headset port that can handle something like front row of a concert? My iPod and friend's iPhone always worked fine.
