slacker

[athensparks]

i am having trouble with my motorola and slacker and pandora, the base is distorted. slacker said that it is a motorola problem or they would have fixed it. is motorola doing something to fix it or will the 2.1 upgrade fix it all? anybody have info on that??? big help

The base is distorted?

[Bob Dammit]

Sorry, couldnt resist. Small speakers will never have good response to the lower end of the sound spectrum. I haven't noticed it on pandora, but I dont listen to bass intensive music.

it's not the apps fault. it's Android and/or the hardware. watching movies, listening to music on the stock player, and the base is horrid and unacceptable.

So is your spelling. It's a frickin phone, what do you expect, a subwoofer?

The Droid has one of the best/loudest phone speakers I have ever heard. I can't believe anyone is complaining.

You mean people use the Droid, or cell phones in general to play music without headphones?

Scary. That would make my ears bleed.

All we need is an EQ and it would be fine.. lower bass a touch, and tweak the mids and highs.

[adrynalyne]

And it would still sound like crap coming out of the cellphone speaker.

i understand that you probably sit around and get a joy out of being a nerd, but i was asking a serious question and i have been on multiple forums for this issue. it also comes out distorted on my car stereo, my home boss speakers, and in my headphones that cost $100 so now that we have established it is not the speaker size, i will give some more detail. the sound from my mp3s is perfect but my slacker the bass is coming over distorted and the other forums said that it is not a slacker issue, but it is a motorola issue.

So does anybody know if motorola has done anything to fix the issue? and will 2.1 fix it. because the new slacker update has done nothing to fix it.

please don't reply unless you have done some research on it. this is not a simple solution issue.

Droid2 will have an optional subwoofer, it comes in a box you carry with the phone so you hear nothing but bass so you can not only annoy people in the car, but on the go. Man they think of everything nowadays.
