beats audio?

[revoracing247]

hey guys, happy/merry christmas eve! i actually just got the new windows 8 phone for christmas and well im kind of concerned about some audio stuff with it.

it has this Beats Audio option that comes on when i plus it into head phones or my stereo and well it give like no description on what exactly it does to the output. im just worried that it (like most retarded "sound enhancing" stuff) boosts frequencies and im guessing making them clip when i'd want to play it going full tilt or with the volume almost all the way up.

with it off the output is really quiet (more then cd or other devices playing through my car) and so i wanted to ask you guys.

any idea what the "Beats Audio" option actually does on the new windows 8 phone. i just really don't want to use it to listen to music and hurt my system.

Dont use it unless you retune everything eith a dd1 its a stupid bass boost button and was proven to do more harm than good on xda developers

anything with the "beats" label is a complete joke. laughingstock.

I have it on my HTC One X and I have the Power Beats by Dre headphones as well, best headphone audio system I've ever used audio wise for listening to music, I use it daily for my workouts at the gym....

It's probably a +600 boost @ 100hz

Don't use it unless you like distortion

That could probably be the slogan for anything Beats

lol ok see that's exactly what i was worried about. i kept asking the people at the t mobile store and on the phone with tech support when i was getting something figured out with my phone and well all they could say was it's just something that makes it "sound better" i was like ok i know that. but what EXACTLY does it do? and they couldn't answer

anyways it's really quiet without that on so idk how much im gonna use my phone to play music in my car then.... and im not just saying it's quiet because its louder with the "Beats Audio" on. it's a lot quieter then my old windows 7 phone.

and i don't intentionally buy anything beats, it just came with the phone. honestly i don't trust anything beats at all. and way over priced for headphones. just saying.

I think u guys over thinkin it. Correct me if im wrong but steave proved on a video that the base boost on an ipod or ipad didnt distort. Maybe this will but I use base boost on my ipod all the time. With no issue

I have Beats on my laptop. Sounds decent on my ATH M50s. but straight Lossless with no boost of any kind is unbeatable.
