Jignesh_patel6744 7 Report post Posted February 12, 2013 buy iphone 5 ear-phones.....that works with android mobile...awesome music effect....its mind blowing...i have tried with Note 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theking 35 Report post Posted February 12, 2013 The earpods, as branded by Apple are better than previous ones and does a decent job. I think, it gives a better sound than the previous ones with more focus on low mids and bass. However, I am quite sure that it just cannot be compared with Klipsch Image S4A (II). What do u say?

Jignesh_patel6744 7 Report post Posted February 13, 2013 As per the specs this earphones looks solid but personally i dont prefer the headphone which goes deep inside of ears....i have experienced ear problems for because of that. and these type of earphone does not allow air circulations in the ear where in new apple iphone 5 earphone has been designed taking care of air circulation so it might not damage the ear drastically...

::: VA ::: 531 Report post Posted February 15, 2013 S4a makes sense mostly if you are keen on having call facility along with audio. but if its just great quality sound , zero in for the first gen S4 only. its easy to get them on ebay india. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
theking 35 Report post Posted February 16, 2013 S4A-ii are an improvement over s4's. I read that the sound quality is almost the same but better with some build quality addons, a better case and remote workign for Android. I think I shall finalise on S4A ii and order on Monday unless someone gives me a better option.. Any help would be great Thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theking 35 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 I never got good music from beats...neither from htc beats nor Beats headphones. It's just a marketing technique. In my htc one x, i turn off beats and turn on srs in power amp Try Klipsche, Shures, Westone, Grados, AKGs, Audio Technicas, Beyerdynamics and thats what is great music Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rajanmehta 4,056 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 Do also have a look at Soundmagic. They have made some outstanding products with pro audio sound quality comparable to the top brands but costs very less in comparison. They have rare reviews for many of their products all over the web. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SumitVerma 187 Report post Posted February 17, 2013 have tried a lot of in-ear earphones but for me nothing beats apple earpods... they dont hurt your ear even after long use and the clarity is stunning with the best "clear bass".. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

theking 35 Report post Posted February 21, 2013 (edited) Review of Klipsch S4A ii Great mid and high.. Low is quite soft Great clarity overall My rating: 7/10 Edit: Rating revised to 9/10. Low is also great when u change the buds and use the buds which gives better noise cancellation. Edited March 26, 2013 by theking Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
