Beats Audio. When to turn it on

[BlackMamba14]

Other than music I find myself turning off Beats Audio for YouTube, podcasts, etc. Sound is clearer and you don't get that sound crackling. What have been your experiences? Does anyone leave it on all the time

I leave it on all the time I think it gives it a fuller sound and a little bit more bassy. To each his own though I guess.

I leave it all the time. If I wanted the fuller sounder, beats. If I really just want loud, then I would turn it off. But. I hardly turn off beats audio.

I personally do not listen t music on my phone! But I love it for the few times a year that I will! I say leave it on.

I turn it OFF when streaming music from google play to my car stereo. I've got my settings where I like them in there, beats mucks it up. Otherwise, its on all the time. Crackling in your speakers from using beats? Seriously? I think your phone has an issue. Mine never does that. Ever.

Always on. No crackling issues.

Strangely enough, everything is louder when it is turned off. About 50% louder, in fact. I asked Att support about this, and the guy said "It's the nature of Beats Audio." Which of course, I didn't understand in the slightest.

I've wondered about Beats being on all the time. Does it affect your battery life by having it on constantly? For games or when I watch videos I like to have it on, but I don't remember to turn it on all the time.

Found crackling only in one video so had nothing to do with beats. But have noticed like another poster said that the audio sounds much louder when off.

Um, he's trying to say that the audio is louder when Beats is turned off? Similar to another poster (me) Oh, and crackling only in one video.

I leave it ON all the time, don't want to waste a cool feature.

I've found it's best to turn Beats of for podcasts. The high end is too much for most female voices and some male voices.
This is, of course, my preference.

While the sound is louder, there is significant quality degradation. I leave it on always as it's a noticeably cleaner sound coming from the speakers.

I like beats for the speakers but not when using headphones.

Only when I use the 3.5mm jack.

As much as I love hTc's BoomSound speakers, they have their limits and this is why I prefer my Sony DRZX701iP.

I don't think beats is running when you aren't listening to music. So it shouldn't affect your bagtery

I turned Beats off. I kept getting a female voice between tracks talking about features and things. The only way to shut her up was to turn off Beats. :/
