Mainly skull candy various models and a pair of Sony mdr, but my point was they are a great set of headphones.the spec looks good but I dont know your past Headphone history so I cant tell what your listening preference or what to compare to.

they are good if you get on the planes a lot, the music is OK not as bad as many audiophile says they are, but the quality is slightly better than Beats.
I had the bose QC20, its really good at noise cancellation but because of that I get really irritate by it, its feels weird so I sold it.
look at Sennheiser PXC 450, I had that for 4-5 years, noise cancellation isnt as good as bose QC25 (no phone is) but sound quality really exceed it.

So were the TinGo Croons TG-38s earbuds ... And they're absolutely horrific. The worst thing I've ever heard in digital sound. A good quality 24b Flac sounds worse than my grandads 1965 tape recording with so much electrical noise, screeching, hissing, leaking and tin sounding.yea they got pretty high regard on head-fi...they are chinese maker though, so quality probaly not the best?

That's what I thought. Until my replacement was the same :/sounds like you got a defect....not even bad headphone have what you describe.

Well they're supposedly very good, I'll tell you when they arrive
Looks like I got lucky, it's out of stock again..
Part number is ZBW4122IN
Been an extremely busy week, haven't been able to sit down and make a review.. Hopefully I'll do it this weekend.. in short, it sounds very good. Better than HTC ones in every way. The mids are recessed, but the v4a DDC profile takes care of that. Stereo separation is good, you can somewhat make out instruments' position from the sound.. Small details are audible, but the treble sounds a little harsh sometimes..
Ive had a few hours of messing around playing FLAC files on the M8 then comparing the sound to the Nokia Lumia 630 and I have to say so far the Nokia seems to sound more true and alive. the M8 sound much more muddy with and without boomsound, Ive also tried EQ settings and the default players + poweramp with still the same isssue.
Has anyone else noticed the sound on the M8 lacking ? Im thinking I might try to put on the hamron Kardon version or Mod to another ROM to see if it improves the sound. Don't get me wrong its good but I was not expecting to be disapointed!. lol
Iv'e also listened to songs of my own music I recorded in FLAC and still the Nokia 630 much more natural and true engaging sound.
How can you call this an Audiophile thread with these claims? (no offense tho).This phone's Boomsound software is actually a pretty good feature and raises just the right frequencies to the right extent, without distorting the authentic experience. But it was so loud/wild that it started to blow even my studio monitor Audio-Technica M50, which was something purely related to not up-to-the-mark coding, blowing off relatively neutral headphones.
But I just updated to 4.4.3 firmware, and they have actually improved a lot on that software deficiency. The headphones do not feel blown even at full volume, which is a giant leap considering how "sensitive" audio equalizers like BoomSound are to reach perfection. Sure, they still haven't reached perfection; audio loses detail nearly last 2 steps of volume, but it's nice to see they are actually improving on that.
Of course, I can turn off Boomsound anytime and be as authentic as anything, but for me boomsound is just a priceless software I'm yet to find in any mobile yet.
Comparing the THD+N ratio of BoomSound On to Off shows far more noise and distortion as well. If you want boomy bass, a harsh top-end, and no midrange, then use BoomSound. A better choice is to find headphones that suit your listening preferences more.
I think I read in the official features of Android L that external DAC will be natively supported (correct me if I'm wrong), so I'm really looking forward to the future of audio in this phone.
P.s. I would give an arm and leg to try out Harmon Kardon mod for this phone, but I can't because of no S-Off. I really can't wait to hear the difference between Boomsound and Harmon Kardon myself. Well, until the day I can get the mod!
U dont have to have S-off to flash Harman Kardon mod, i flashed it with S-ON on viper one 3.2.1 and it worked perfectly...
FLAC is CD quality. Better than 320 fo sure.

I can hear the difference. 192kHz has a little more sparkle to me, especially the highs. Probably an exagerration to say night and day but I can hear it.
Anyways it's good that the game is changing in audio formats and we are not stuck with 16bit/44,1khz forever.
Wikipedia.org said:The sampling theorem introduces the concept of a sample-rate that is sufficient for perfect fidelity for the class of bandlimited functions. And it expresses the sample-rate in terms of the function's bandwidth. Thus no actual "information" is lost during the sampling process. The theorem also leads to a formula for the mathematically ideal interpolation algorithm.
