4. Poweramp in Play Store
Poweramp uses its own equalizer, not compatible with the others

I've used them all partially but for the longest time now.. ive been a fan of equalizer.

Biggest question, do any work to improve 3rd party apps like Pandora?

Yep dsp and equalizer work on all system sounds.

Thanks for the DSP Manager links! I have been using Equalizer for months but decided to test DSP manager now, and it really rocks! I like that it is a system app as well and that it works for all players. I use Spotify, Google Music, and Pocket Casts, so I need an equalizer that works for several music players. Equalizer would sometimes not work perfectly, but DSP Manager seems solid!

Dsp all the way. I used to use power amp and never cared much for dsp but the Apollo / dsp combo is fantastic.

Huge fan of PowerAmp. I love the UI and the fact that it does gapless perfectly.
I do however keep the EQ turned off. The Klipsch S4 sound great with the GNex set flat.

old poweramp's fan...but onestly from a month i switched to apollo\dsp manager or n7 player pro\dsp manager and i'm going very well.anyway also the use of only poweramp rocks,always used on ginger and for times on gnex.after posting in this 3ad,i want to re-switch to poweramp and give it a try with newest updates.well done phone_user,good 3ad!

i use volume+ and it's working fine on my GN.

wow looks like im the only person thus far that uses Equalizer your missing out

DSP manger FTW

Surprised volume + isn't on this list. It makes the speaker sound way better and twice as loud. But if I was to pick from op's list I would say equalizer.

I personally get better sound using poweramp. And I love the player because it actually shows the right album art.

Hi phone_user,
I agree 100%,Volume+ in first then Equalizer since it's on the list
And probably it's ridiculous but Volume+:75Ko/Equalizer:2,1M... and more RAM used just for a sound app(ok more features than Volume+ like widgets).
But since this thread is not a comparo between Volume+ and....I choose Equalizer.
You should have done a poll

I don't really use a music effects app, because honestly I don't know what their potential is... never really played around. But does it make that much of a difference (i.e. better music quality)? If so, which app and settings do you recommend? Screenies w/ setup please.

PowerAmp. Love it

It does help quite a bit. I notice the stock audio sounds so flat and dull... with equalizer I up the treble and bass cuz it also lacks the thump I like. I listen to a lot of metal and sub genres of that...(metalcore, Hardcore, etc) so the higher treble sounds nice. Here is where my equalizer is at. The treble is a tad high but you can always lower it to your liking. I have the same "v" shape on my laptop with beats audio.

Thanks, I'll try it out and see!

Beats audio settings with DSP Manager. No apks or extra flashing needed.

So let's say you rooted your HOX, but you kinda liked the Beats audio processing sound on your stock phone. There are APKs and Zips out there that let you get the files you need, but none of them really prove that they work, and some of them get your phone so messed up that you have to reload your rom. Yeah, I've installed them all. I've figured out the best settings in DSP Manager to give you that Beats Audio sound, if you're into it.
To begin, let me say I'm a headphone guy. I have over 50 pairs, ranging from crappy Senns to great Senns, to ridiculously expensive Grados and Ultrasones, and one I dare not mention because it cost more than my life. You know about a headphone? I probably have it. But that's for another forum. The point I'm trying to make is that I'm really into sound. And I wouldn't post a thread saying that I can reproduce the Beats Audio sound with DSP Manager's EQ settings alone if I didn't believe it.
I also have both the stock AT&T with Beats on (2.20) and a rooted HOX. So that means hours on hours of real side-by-side comparisons. Nothing from memory.
For this experiment, I used a pair of Etymotic HF5s with custom molds. No, these aren't the best headphones I have, but they do provide the biggest difference in sound from turning Beats on and off (to my ears). So I thought they were good for trying to recreate the sound on my rooted phone without Beats installed.
Instead of walking you through the settings, I've posted photos of them. Other than the EQ settings themselves, these need to happen:
Headset only - I didn't do this for speaker or bluetooth
Bass boost enabled - slight
EQ enabled - image attached
Loudness compensation disabled
Headset virtual room effect disabled
There you go. Over time, I will probably tweak the EQ slightly as I see fit, but I think it's close to spot on right now. So there it is, Beats audio sound with no beats installed. But you need a rooted phone with DSP manager.
Thanks and let me know what you think.

If it's the same for the international hox you can leave it here, it's just settings that you changed ? But I was a bit confused because i only see you speaking about the AT&T version

If its universal, it can stay here. Otherwise I could move it to the OneXL forum for you.

I reposted it there but can't figure out how to delete this post.
also, if the international version has beats, then yes, this is universal.

Could you write the settings down also?

I may not have an HOX but i think what I'm about to say/ask is for this thread too.
I'm using an app called Music Volume EQ (free from the Play Store) on my Desire S Sense 3.6. Don't get me wrong, CM is a great ROM but I think it's not for me. So, I'm trying to recreate your DSP setting on the app with 4-5-0-3-6 setup on the 5-band equalizer, Virtualization is OFF, Bass Boost is ON and about set to 5 clicks from the left.
What I'm trying to say is that the setting works great even not on just DSP Manager.
Sometimes I change the Bass Boost setting to my liking.
Thanks for the great post.

I know that there is no other way to immitate Beats Audio other than Beats Audio itself.
What we can do is maybe just make a setting that is "closer" to beats audio.
So, if not, any suggested changes?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app

Ok, so i like to try this, but unfortunately, i tried many DSP managers, apd, zip etc but they tremendously distort the sound whenever i activate the equalizer or put bass boost on mid.
Anyone have a good distro that works without distortion? I think that the audio limiter doesn't work on these, that's why bass gets distorted quickly. Oh, when i talk about distortion, it's definitely no the earphones since it occurs at very low volume levels.

Thanks for this, makes a big difference to my music experience

V4A is an awesome mod for clarity and loud sound.
Atm I've just installed the updated version. We could share our respective settings mentioning if it's more for quality (XHiFI) or effects (FX).
Actually I use the recommended settings with Sony IRS and it works really really nice!
One of the best thing to have on our Android device!

Viper Mod help

Im trying to get viper mod to work for my galaxy s3 but dont notice any difference in the stock music player and barely any difference in the google music player. I hear it is better than the acid audio mod but I'm not seeing results, am I doing something wrong?

Aosp or Touch wiz?
(Stock music player could be Samsung's or Apollo)
It doesn't work on Aosp due to drivers.
When you install drivers select Cortex A9 With NEON
Reboot
Activate the equalizer from V4A. Also make sure you have the correct v4a version installed. There's one for 4.1.1 to 4.2.2 and 4.3

What if I dont wanna use the equalizer just wanna add bass? When I adjust the bass settings without enabling equalizer nothing happens. Also I don't get the option to select Cortex A9 with Neon, I only get high quality, super high quality and power saving as my options. I get some (very little) change when forcing compatibility mode. Im using tw 4.3.
I checked the driver status and it says no to processing everything else seems normal. Also I'm using headphones.

You should still be able to activate bass only if you leave all other settings alone as they were. You'll still need to check the first box I believe. If it's not asking you for Cortex A9 Neon, you're using the wrong installer (YOU NEED the drivers), or one that I don't know of. Try 4.3 from the market. Search for V4A FX 4.3 on the market.

Well I installed the 4.3 version from the play store and installed driver. After reboot I checked driver status it says not enabled and not processing, even though I have viper enabled. Doesn't matter if equalizer was enabled or not

Totally weird. I know from experience that 4.3 Touchwiz functions with V4A from the market using Cortex A9 NEON drivers after a reboot.
I've done it three separate times and three more separate times on 4.1.2, something's got to be up with the install process. You may have to undo the other V4A changes (if it was a flashable and not an app) before this works then.

I use the custom setting, and adjust the bands below the line. However you cannot use the Bass or Virtualizer with the speaker. The speaker is too small and weak for those adjustments IMO.

I just got the T-Mobile 6t and I came from an LG G6 . And I noticed a big difference in sound quality in Bluetooth.
I had to recalibrate my car stereo eq settings in my car.
To me it's a downgrade in audio quality. Less bass and just doesn't have the umph. anymore.

Same here...came from v20 Bluetooth audio huge difference... volume is not that loud via BT i has dolby Atmos on v20 and sound amazing compared to OP...i used Viper to increase volume but seem it dont do anything...looking for a way to increase volume...

I didn't install yet but to involve in the discussion, for me compared to my nexus 6p it's a noticeable difference with the Bluetooth, it's better then I had before. Also via Android auto it's better quality then I had before.

I came from my trusty dialy driver the OG Moto X Pure -Rooted - with Sauron Audio Mod and Dolby Atoms EQ. The sound is phenomenal through BT even with the outdated codec. I hope to get the 6T to that level and even better. Patiently waiting to root my TMO Variant. On a side note; the sound from the 6T is pretty good through my gen1 QC35s.
