 Is the equaliser usable not degrading the sound with aliasing effects?

I also wanted to know if the headset controls are working in the new model.

Neither the equalizer settings nor the Dolby Headphone enhancements degrade the sound quality as I have tested these settings combinations with both default lumia 920 headsets and my Nokia monsters purity headphones with lumia 920. Regarding headsets control, yes the controls on default headsets do work but other headsets' control might not work with lumia 920 as pin configuration might be not compatible with Nokia.

 The default headset that comes with the 920 doesn't have music player controls, just a button for answering calls and pausing the music playback.

 I've tested other headsets from older Nokia phones that do have music player controls but none of them worked on the 920. Music played through them OK but the controls had no effect.

Yes the default headset lumia 920 doesn't have music controls but Nokia monsters purity headphones ,which is specifically designed for older Lumia phones, works with lumia 920 and its music control keys too.

It's the nokia purity in-ear headset I have and would be using on the 920 if I get it.

Hi SequoiaGrove,

To add to what the others are saying here....I am using Sony XBR earphones and with the Dolby Headphone and custom EQ settings on my 920, it is not affecting the sound in a detrimental manner at all, it is pushing out louder and cleaner sound than my old N8 which I considered for a long time to be quite a good mp3 player for myself.

OK, I will order it, then

Is the equalizer fully functional with bluetooth headsets or is just wired headsets/headphones?

I have finally totaly dropped wired headsets actually.

Using Nokia BH-610 primarly now with Nokia Belle phones and soon as also the Nokia Purity Pro Wireless BH-940.

Well, is the equalizer working with bluetooth headsets 100% or not.

The dolby will only work when wired headset attached, however I use my Essence and the sound is great, all the controls work perfectly and they connect via nfc without issue, also used my old Sony wired headset which works great, but has no controls, so use on screen.

Thanks carman58

Well, Dolby Sound is working great on Nokia 701 with Essence headset from Nokia.

But, it is good to hear at least that the equalizer working fully inclusive a own set freq band one (I guess).

Thanks for a clear answer.

[carman58]

You're more than welcome, so far I'm finding the 920 great and very hard to pick fault with

Apparrently you don't get a head set included in the box when buying a 920 in the USA. I've got ne idea why though.

I only got very basic wired headset with mine, but always prefer to use my own anyway and don't know anyone who doesn't have at least a couple of sets. Music pretty good overall on the 920 for me so far. Just scanned my computer to get more accurate mixes on Nokia Mix Radio, pretty cool
