Bass as a guideline but then I set my custom settings. 3 bars up on every freq from normal bass settings.

I put them all to max on my k500i,is that ok?

MegaBass of cousre. All day every day. Trance, House, Industrial, hell even Reba McEntire! Remixed of course.

mine was set to manually equalizer.. it does play well on the earphone though.. not trough loud speaker k750i that was

4 me the equalisers name should be changed to 'mega bass on/off'. Hehe. MB all the way.

I prefer manual setting....first bar (bass) full, second slight below zero, third very below zero, fourth untouched, and the last one at max.
I use Koss Porta pro with my W810i and it plays just graaeet... when I turn Mega Bass, the music aint that clear when compared to manual setting

putting all the bars at full will definately generate sound quality degrade. UYou should try doing it some high and others medium, or low. Do this when listening a song so you get the idea how the equalizer afects it and at wich point you get better sound. cheers

Posted by mada_152
that sounds realy interesting but to be hones I don't have a clue what's high & what's low....I only know the speech bar that I acentuate when I listen to live music....is there a manual or Pdf that presents the Equalizer in special?

Posted by linsseason
ok, I have switched from manual to MEGA BASS... works fineeee

Posted by ekhrraz
Always in Mega Bass.

I like to use the voice setting, particularly when i am using the earphones

@mada_152
to achieve an effect similar to MegaBass, set the bars to something like this:
100%, 75%, 50%, 60%,70%

have fun! I had MegaBass on my Z800 and it distorted some tracks really badly (even if listened to at low volume). With the settings above bass was almost as good, but no distortions any more.

I listen to Death metal music, and the megabass option is the best choice.

I listen to dance music (usually House and Trance) and when I first got my W810i I was trying the various equalizer settings with the buds that came with the phone. Not a surprise, but those buds are crap! Even with MegaBass, the sound was weak and thump was really lacking to me.

I then plugged in my Sennheiser earbuds and nearly imploded my eardrums, as I had left the EQ on the MegaBass setting. The difference in bass output was astounding (but not surprising since the earphones that ship with most products tend to be poor quality).

I now use the Bass EQ setting with my Sennheiser buds and my tunes sound great. (Well, except for the hiss, of course. I'm still holding out hope that SE will fix this in a future firmware update).

on my w810 there is no hiss tkanks to fw upgrade.

Posted by skylineR35
i now didnt use megabass anymore as the treble are low but here is my suggestion :
100%, 50%, 50%, 75%, 100% (numbers of bars are 16*)
16, 8, 8, 12, 16

very good compared to megabass, cuz though the bass arent solid but the treble are sharper. that equalizer are set for hpm70. for hi-fi, megabass is still the best...




Posted by mart89
Can't imagine why so many ppl have their setting on megabass? I renember when using my HPM-70's with my K750 mega bass had WAY too much bass, the music just didnt sound nice.

Posted by skylineR35
me too, i was only using megabass for the first few months, when after that i realize my personal eq (100,50,50,75,100 %) are better.

for some people who want to try, check that out... bass are 90% from megabass but treble are 150% better.

btw for those using k700, k800, k610 would not have megabass option and the best eq beside `mine` is suppose to be bass.

@mart89

that's exactly what I say - for me MegaBass distorts the music too much. But maybe that's because I'm one of those guys still having some vinyl LP's (most of my collection is CDs of course...)

Me too. Just got my first serious headphone yesterday, a cheap but excellent sennheiser px 100 (USD 40). I immediately switched the eq from mega bass to normal/bass, as the sound with mega bass becomes unnaturally boomy and distorted with px 100. Mega bass sounds good for the standard and cheap earpieces, but becomes way too much when coupled with good headphone. The sound quality of px 100 just blew me away as I've never had a nice headphone before, and now I wonder how the other value legendary headphones like grado sr60 or koss portapro sounds like. Got to have them too someday

mega bass is for music noobs to me

i mean... its useless to use the mega bass setting on your phone

you see, when your craving for a quality.. do yourself a favor and get yourself an ipod or any mp3 player with a quality headset.. that is the time you will notice good music

se is fine but limited accessories and the point is, no good stereo headset is on sale for se

so to me... dont bother change the equalizer, useless to me

Posted by QuickShare
manual mode tune up and down until it satisfied my ear

Posted by dr_thug
Rock!

Posted by JK
100% - 80% - 75% - 80% - 100%

Posted by spine6
can you set up the equalizer on the p990i manually?? Because i'm using the mega bass but when listening to music in speaker mode there are no differences only with headsets.

My K800 in combination with a HBH DS970 is the exact same quality as an ipod with sennheiser headsets. Don't renember which sennheisers, but according to my friend they costed him 45 dollars. Nothing wrong with se's sound quality!

Posted by kulorex
Manual for me.

From left:
1st bar = -2
2nd bar = -3
3rd bar = -4
4th bar = -3
5th bar = -3

ok... if you didnt notice, k800 sound quality SUCKS as in literally SUCKS

well maybe i'm just more music enthusiast anyhoo if you say k800 has good speaker well then i think its great to you aryt?

peace

I asume there are different versions of the K800 around, because I'm a music enthusiast and I know if listen to good quality. Right now I own a K610, but I tested the K800 as well and that one was the same in quality. I compared them with a W810 and there was virtually no difference, except, that the K610 and K800 didn't have the hiss (or almost none).
Ok - this ist not exactly HiFi - but my iPod didn't sound any better with the same headphone.

So I think all those having bad sound quality with their K800 have got a different version than I had...

Yes, the speaker sucks, you saying the speaker sucks makes me think you listen your music through a phones speaker? Come on... thats just pathetic.

Like Kimi said, the quality is smilar to an ipod.

I use the manual mode. I don't like the mega bass setting, I thinks it 'cracks' the sound too much.
