[Q] How's the Infuse's audio quality and DAC?

---

Does it have a Wolfson DAC like the Nexus S and the original Galaxy S phones? Or does it have the lesser-quality Yamaha DAC from the Galaxy S II?

I'm curious if we'll ever see something like supercurio's Voodoo Sound for the Infuse. Would be a nice upgrade from my Vibrant, but not worth giving up the killer sound from the Wolfson WM8994 DAC in my phone.

yes it does but voodoo sound is not supported yet. supercurio is woring on it he has tweeted that the infuse has the wolfson dac and will get the voodoo treatment starting with voodoo sound, but he needs to include support for soo many devices while developing new features and similtaneously developing on the sgs2. his hands are full.

Thanks for the quick reply. Good to hear, and yeah, I can imagine he's got his hands pretty full right now. supercurio if you're reading this, huge thanks for everything that you do for us here, it's really awesome to have you keeping tabs on this stuff and writing cool software to provide what the manufacturers should have.

In any case, that's awesome to hear that the Infuse is packing GS1 audio. Hopefully that means it'll be a viable option for audio nerds where the GS II wasn't.

Reviving an old but good thread title.

What audio quality are people experiencing on the Infuse with headphones?

Voodoo control is now available as an app for the Infuse. I'm still sussing out the details about roms, kernels and whatever?

Hello!

In order to use Voodoo Control with the Infuse, you must...

-have a compatible voodoo-supporting rom
-have a voodoo kernel

The setup i usually use is the stock Froyo rom with 3e modded recovery found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1092021) and the v8 community kernel, found here (http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1119598)

This delivers an excellent overall experience, and when coupled with decent quality headphones gives a fantastic audio output. Hope this helps!
