Sound quality is so bloody subjective.Why do people keep on hampering on the same thing again and again. Let me get this straight
The K850 has better RMAA ratings than the N81.I guess this proves a point.

Btw, if there is a DSP or not, still the same process happens. The DSP also runs software, the matter is only if the audio processing runs on the main CPU or a second CPU. A dedicated DSP is not necessarily better, it depends on the software run on the DSP. For example I have media player hdd case which can play AVI file. It uses some dedicated chip for MPEG* decoding, still the software implementation using in mplayer/ffmpeg is muuuuuuuch better

Those results are skewed.

If you've listened to a N91, N81 or SAMSUNG i450 and compare that audio quality to a W890,W910 or W960 you'd know that the DSP/AMPLIFIER in the N91, N81 and i450 makes a major difference, the audio is a lot richer, crisper, much better stereo separation, a lot more bassy, and great treble and bass balance -something my K850, the W880, W910, and W890 are terrible at.
What the hell! You should try G700/G900 audio is better than w910, w890 even n81
AFAIK that has the very same hardware as W960? If so the N81 destroys it.
Yes, it have the very same hardware as W960, but G900 sound louder and clearer than W960. Maybe they SE do something about the software. Well i had w960 & n81 before so i can tell G900 have improved audio than W960, and I recommended you to test G900

I have compared the sound quality of my W890 with my friend's Nokia 5310 XM which has a dedicated audio chip. And i must say that the sound quality of 5310 XM is much much better than my W890. 5310 XM had more stereo and the sound quality was very crisp and clear compared to the W890. But still the W890 is not that far behind. Only if SE includes a dedicated audio chip in the Walkman phones, it will beat Nokias and Samsungs hands down...

Great and mature way to put it, QVGA san.
Fact is that people are different, one will like it more, the other one won't.
The fact is that DSP makes the audio better, whether someone likes it or not, thats irrelevant. Why do you think the audio on newer phones like W910 is so god awful?
It has absolutely NOTHING to do with the phone having a DSP or not. There will ALWAYS be a unit processing the audio, ALWAYS. It does however have something to do with what kind of DSP it is, and that's what you're never talking about. It's always "Oh it's got a DSP, so it's muuuuuuch better", which is utter nonsense.
Another fact for you: It isn't god awful.
There is no point is arguing with you. If you think W910 sounds even remotely good then your standards are shockingly low.
Oh and there is always something for sound processing, and having something dedicated to ONLY sound processing; two very different things.

That's really the best you can come up with? No point in arguing with me? Nope, you're right, as you know I'm winning this argument.
So, W910 is not even remotely close to being good? I'm sure I could find, say, a thousand phones that are worse. You need a wakeup call, dude. Just because it's not ultra high-end, it can't be good?

Last time i checked it was a high end phone, at least that's what the price tag says. And who gives a crap if you have find a thousand phones that are worse, go find a million and it wont matter. The fact of the matter is that W910 is a miserable phone, it sounds even worse than W800 which is 2.5 years old.
Dont believe my subjective test? Go check the hardware RMA tests, they dont lie.
And i just said, if you think W910 sounds really good, then your standards are low, and there isnt anything you can do about it, thats just how you are. You get impressed with mediocrity.
