I use GoneMad all the time with my Sony Mdr V6, which are good monitor headphones, and the sound quality is very similar to the IPod one.

Of course you should have a device with a good Dac.

Anyway, in GoneMad there's also an option to change the Dsp, maybe if the sound is poor you should try it.

Neutron+V4A= eargasm

Hello to everyone. I have galaxy s2 with AKG Q350 earbuds and i can say that my sound chip isnt the best, but im using Neutron player woth combination with Viper4 Android sound mod and i can say that is top notch. Yeah neutron have a horible UI but oh gosh with that 64 bits encoding and with the normalizer function the mp3 sounds way better than a flac. The sound is clean, the bass is pumping, and ahhh eargasm when you hear the hidden acoustics in the song. If you know how to use it you will find out that is the best combination. Yeah ofcourse the other players are shiny and cool, but where everyone fails neutron makes the job done. Beleave me i tried almoust every exsisted player, but Neutron on my opinion is the best. Cuz im as audiophile and im listeting music arround 12 houers per day and none of the players have what neutron can do. And for viper4android sound mod i can say ony one tthing ,,try it, you will not regret,,. V4A have the abillity to change, filter the sound the way you like it and this is the meaning of listeting music.
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gabripranzo:
If you are an audiophile you don't need a good player but a new phone: the S2 has a terrible DAC (audio chip) which sounds horrible. I sincerely doubt you can hear Neutron's 64 bit with that cheap Yamaha chip, sorry.

I love my S2, but I never use it to listen to my music.

thank you for the info about "Viper"..with the right tweak, its simply awesome :laugh::good:
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] contrinsan:
I was gonna reply something like this also.

Neutron player is one off the few apps i bought for my phone. i have tested many players but none have so many options for sound like neutron. The ui isn't the best out there and an 'exit' button is missing in the options but it's still the best i've seen when it comes to options for getting the best sound. The fact that it also has very loud sound booster made me buy it long time ago :)

I also like Fusion player a lot because it's free, no annoying adds and has cool extra options such as :

- shoutcast online radio.

- lastfm scrobble

- online charts, it will search the songs in those lists & you can play/download if found.

- play youtube clip of now playing song (shake device and it searches/play videoclip version) (i like this a lot !)

- create ringtones

- post 'now playing' to facebook &/or twitter

- Visualisations (every player should have this, i like watching something that moves to the beat :)

- Related music : nice feature to find other songs from an artist

- Biography etc. : option to get some more info about an artist

-....

This makes it the best free music player for me.

N7 player is also cool because off the automatic backgrounds from artists and some other unique features.

Audio visualizer is my favorite to watch visualisations, it is free, has a built in player but can also be set to microphone or even use another music player to control it.

i tried PowerAmp and enjoyed how feature rich it was, but then tried out GMMP. the UI is a lot cleaner, more simple and it's very customizable. it made the transition from iOS to Android (music wise) incredibly easy.

also you can organize music by album artist, that was the big winner for me, something PowerAmp lacked (which is what made me switch in the first place)

prefs -> scanner -> open scanner -> edit scan paths.. make sure you music folders are listed there and run a scan (you can also try unchecking the .nomedia option)

otherwise if it doesnt pick up any music you either probably downloaded the x86 version which of course would not work on an ARM device. My error logs show a lot of users doing this and im not quite sure how that is happening. The playstore will give the correct version for the device and the direct download links i provide on my blog are clearly labeled ARM and x86

Perhaps there are pirated copies of the x86 going around that around incorrectly labeled that people are using.. who knows

I tried PlayerPro but wanted some features like ReplayGain that they didnt support. Switched to PowerAmp...but I think the layout and UI suck on PowerAmp. Hate all their shuffle options, hate the fact that the lockscreen has skip forward buttons but also skip playlist buttions that I always hit by accident (and which for me are a worthless feature), etc.

I think GMMP has so many helpful settings and provides a much nicer user experience.

If you use GoneMad you have to put your albums in the same directory, then add the directory to the scanner path. Run the scanner and it will add all your music. GoneMad will download the album art from the Internet (it won't use the gallery) if you select the option to download automatically. You will always be able to choose a different album art, GoneMad has options for this.

I'll like to ask, why does Neutron have treble rolloff? Is it intentional? I am pretty sure it isn't hardware related since I have tested Neutron on both my Xperia TX and Z2 against various other players and it seems Neutron is the only one with noticeable treble rolloff.

Above is the RMAA test I recently done on my new Xperia Z2. "Neutron 64" is pretty much with all the audiophiles options turned on. "Neutron 32" is all the options off. "Walkman" is the default walkman app on Sony phone., and UAPP is USB Audio Player PRO. As you can see, only Neutron has rolloff. Even though the walkman app looks pretty bad, it still extends up to 20kHz within 1dB.
