How is the sound quality with this case for playing music or just general calls?

I personally don't have any problems with either. It doesn't effect the sound quality. And when I make phone calls it doesn't interfere.

The speakers are not covered, so the sound quality does not seem to be effected. That said, the sound is somewhat directed. If the sound level is low, and you are listening to music or a podcast, you want to point the bottom of the phone in your general direction, not away from you. At higher sound levels, it doesn't seem to matter much.

I think that both are great! It's not like it's the Lifeproof case. There are holes for the speakers on these cases.

No sound problems either way. The case has plenty of opening for speakers for ear and on the bottom

The sound quality is pretty decent. It does not matter much to me as I have Home Theater attached to it.

Yes it is, call quality is OK but could be better. Speaker size has a lot to do with that

The speaker phone is pretty good, sounds clear and the mic is sensitive enough. The interface with android is also good; you can switch to phone if you don't want the conversation public, then it'll go right back to the music when you hang up.

I am not a great judge of the sound quality as I listen to non music channels and don't have a well tuned ear. I just know it stays on my ear, can be easily understood, and works well on phone calls.

The sound is not as good as without a case. If you are in an area with noise around it is hard to hear somebody sometimes. I guess you could say yes it sounds like they are in a tunnel. They also say that I sound a little muffled. I think all the waterproof cases are like that I know people that have the lifeproof and it sounds the same way. Overall I am happy I went with the case I have dropped the phone twice on concrete and has not stopped working yet have not had it total wet yet except for in the testing when I first got it and it worked good then

The sound quality is not bad but it's not like premium sound but it's not bad. Personally I think it's very good but then again I'm not to picky about sound quality.

I used my phone without any form of a case for three weeks. Then I put the Spigen slim armor case on. It does not affect call quality in anyway, as far as I can tell. Also, the speakers still sound Crystal clear when running Pandora or watching YouTube videos.

It is average quality....I am not a music aficionado but the bass is not deep and outside of the volume controls, there are no extra features to boost the sound from what I can tell, but the midrange tones are OK for most audio content. I listen to mostly streaming content not necessarily just music, so for my purposes they work pretty great.

The sound quality is pretty good. It is not as good as if you were listening to a cd or directly off of a USB, but if you have your song list on your phone you should be quite happy with it. I use mine daily and I am extremely happy with it.

I think the sound quality is good. It's not the most high end system but certainly has good volume and decent quality. I've seen other reviews stating that the sound was not good, but that has not been our experience with this system. I think you will be happy with it.

Sound quality is good. I don't have an S5 but it is a standard size. It uses pressure to stay in you ear so the fit is a little snug.

I haven't experienced any problems with this case. The volume and sound quality haven't been affected as far as I've noticed. I am very pleased wih mine.

No music audio, but also the sound quality isn't great for regular phone calls FYI. People have trouble hearing me

I'm not great at determining sound quality but I have only tried it in full blast once and it was alright. I usually listen in medium level or lower and it had an okay bass to it. The sound is a lot more clear at lower level than a phone speaker in full blast that's for sure.

You can hear it but it's not as loud as it is with out it. But if you use the plug addapter that should come with the phone with speakers or head phones it's he same as it is with out. So if you get a case I suggest you get speakers also
