Audio Player Apps's for Note 8 - Samsung Galaxy Note 8 Questions and Answers

Hi all,
Just bought this lovely phone and i wonder is there any good recommendation audio player for Note 8 besides Play Music?
Regards,
BlueGuess

Give Phonograph a go. It looks absolutely gorgeous and it is really well designed.

You can always use Samsung's own stock player. It's clean and works flawlessly.

Poweramp works fine

I've been using Poweramp too, no complaints

Try Jet Audio Plus and is much powerful then others as has enhancements plug-ins ( Paid) and really make difference in sound.

Thanks all!

When i figure out how to put up pics ill post.
my setup is very similar to yours with the exception of poweramp with some more tweaks.Just bought some klipsch earbuds and its the best sounding combo hands down,super base with crisp treble,even found a cool app that turns the iphone controls (made for) to work like stock earbuds work.My buddy found a cool app called music fx but not sure ill have too much tweaking the same stuff so i held off on downloading it but he had me listen to 2pac heavy in the game and he made the stock earbuds beat like we had 4, 12s in a hatch back.Check out that app and give me your opinion on if its a negative or positive great post for us music freaks with the best audio chip made for cell phones

Music fx is for stock music player only... if you want to listen a better quality of music, get Google music. You will feel the music sounds better than other music player.

Best Music And Video Player For Nexus 6

Today I'm going to shortlist some Music Players and Video Players which are supported with Nexus 6 and device with running Lollipop and will also discuss pros and cons of some of them
Music Player:
1. Power AMP: This is the most balanced music player available till now. It can deliver the PERFECTLY BALANCED BASS The equalizer is much effective. Another advantage of it is that it has many themes to choose from. Some are paid and some are free. It'll fully compatible with lollipop so there will be no crash of the app. And it's dirt cheap. You get 7 days of free trial and then you'll have to purchase the unlocker
Link: 1. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer
2. Full version unlocker: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.maxmpz.audioplayer.unlock
2. JetAudio Plus: This music player is mainly targeted towards the common people who is not too much serious about the audio but it doesn't mean that it's bad. It's the second best music player available on google playstore. I'll always ask everyone to purchase the plus version as this music player is not that effective with the two plug-ins it comes with (plug-ins are available to purchase through IAP) which are AM3D Audio Enhance and Bongiovi DPS. AM3D is a great plug-in which actually control the audio out-put of your taste and with Bongivoi DPS you can switch between different headphone's audio drivers. Though it's costly but it worth the price tag. Last but not the least, if you're using Pebble SmartWatch then it can be great addition for you because it has Pebble watch support
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.jetappfactory.jetaudioplus
3. Google Play Music: As a free music player it prove itself as a great musicplayer, always
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.google.android.music
4. Musixmatch music & lyrics: A great music player with material design and tinted statusbar and great for those who want the Lyrics of their songs. Please note that for lyrics, the meta data of the audio file should be correct or else it'll fail to show the lyrics.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.musixmatch.android.lyrify
5. Neutron Music Player: This is a balanced music player. It can deliver very balanced bass. Worth trying
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.neutroncode.mp
Other:
Player Pro: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tbig.playerpro
DoubleTwist Player (New): https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.doubleTwist.androidPlayer
Video Player:
1. VLC for Android beta: Don't go by the term 'Beta'. It's a beast while playing video. If your device is capable enough to run the video file, it'll make sure that the video runs in buttery smooth FPS.
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.videolan.vlc.betav7neon
2. MX Player Pro: It's a great video player with all video format supported. get the pro version to remove the add and some pro features
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mxtech.videoplayer.pro
3. KMPlayer: Another video player with all video format supported
Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kmplayer
PS: To test the audio out-put through headphones I've used AudioTechnica ATH M50 and Sennheiser CXC 700. Please note that audio quality mainly depends on the audio driver (hardware based) of your device and also on the out-put device you're using, such as headphones and portable speakers.

And also try JetAudio Plus. It'll never disappoint you. But you'll have to use this with those 2 plug-ins
Why you show no love to playerpro... lol

Thanks for the helpful information.
Also worth noting is that yesterday I needed to play an MKV video file with AC3 audio and MX Player did not support the audio. I didn't download the pro version but it looks like this is a known issue with MX right now. VLC worked flawlessly. So looks like for the time being VLC is the go to until some plugin support gets worked out if you have need of AC3 playback.

It isn't a known problem, MX Player was forced to remove the AC3 audio codec due to licensing problems. To workaround this, download the custom codec.
See, http://www.androidpolice.com/2014/1...c3-and-mlp-audio-codecs-workaround-available/
http://forum.xda-developers.com/apps/mx-player/mx-player-custom-codec-dts-support-t2156254
and then your mkv, AC3 audio videos will work the same before. VLC is great though. It's my go-to player on the desktop but on Android, I prefer MX Player.

Didn't know that. I'll have to check out the workaround because I'm in the same boat, like MX Player a little better than VLC on Android but they are both great.
I can't believe nobody uses Shuttle player, I hardly ever hear it mentioned...by far the best music player to me, great UI, nice eq and sound quality, gapless playback (which is huge cause I listen to a lot of live music), no ads, very smooth...

VLC is the best so far. As far as I know MX player had to terminate AC3 codec due to some license codec.

Was going to mention the same links and then saw you post. But still I like VLC much more. I've the paid MX Player but faced some stuttering while playing a 4K video. So uninstalled that and using VLC now

Did you actually listen to the sound, or just look at it? Not great to look at but side by side with any of the others it blows them out of the water sound with sound quality. I don't work for them or anything, I'm just impressed with how much better it sounds. I'm mainly concerned with the quality over bluetooth in my car, so maybe with headphones its a different story.

Don't know man how can you praise it? :-/ It's not that good :-/ power amp and jetaudio plus with those two plug-ins sounds great for me At least with my headies And most of the people agree with this fact that these two ate great As I mentioned in my post that audio out-put device pays one of the most important role I'll rather ask you to check it with some quality headies rather than car speakers

Favorite music players?

I've been out of the loop for a long time. The last music player I used has seemingly been abandoned (Mort Player), so I'm curious about what everyone uses (and why).
I'd love something with decent widget support (something with cover artwork). All (or at least the vast majority) of my albums have a folder.jpg.
flac fupport would be HUGE, but I don't know of many that support it (Neutron does, I think). EQ would be helpful. m4b (audiobook) support would be awesome, but that will probably need to be a separate player, plus I have an old iPhone that I use in my car for audiobooks.
I guess this is a combination post. Looking for what people use, as well as recommendations for me.

That's one I'm considering. That or Neutron are leading the pack in my mind.
google search "android music app" and there are a ton of threads, but IMO neutron player has by far the best sound quality. I tried a lot of apps and even though it doesn't have the best interface you can without a doubt hear the difference in sound when using Neutron over any other player. Sure, I guess poweramp or any other player could use eq settings to sound better but neutron doesn't need anything.
Poweramp will be the bone pretty much everyone goes with.

That's what I remember of Neutron when it first came out. I admit I'm curious to hear music from my phone through my good cans through multiple music players.

That or Neutron. Neutron gets a lot of recommendations, even though it doesn't have the pretty interface that Poweramp does.

Poweramp is the best right there. Been using it since 2k11.

Eleven. Or the dark version. Google it.
If you're looking for something different, check out N7 player
Not to break with the pack but I'm using Gone mad music player. It's paid but has a great eq and processor. It supports crossfading and gap less playback.
For me it's been fantastic.

I'm using Sony Music now. It's so nice to use compared to other apps.

Long time poweramp. Since a few month Shuttle
for me it's Poweramp. since i have a Macbook and use iTunes as my primary player, i have to use Apple Lossless (alac) instead of flac. Poweramp seems to be one of the only players to support this format. if you're using regular flac files, Shuttle (better visuals) or GoneMAD (more customization) should do the trick since they use the same audio engine that supports lossless.

I looked up this one since you mentioned it and found out that I have already purchased the full version...
I'll install the trial on my Nexus and see how it sounds through my DT770s. I'd desperately love for one of these players to sound good enough with them that I don't have to bring my headphone amp with me when I travel. So far, Poweramp is sounding the best through those headphones to me. Not as full as with the amp, but better than my stock iPhone for sure.
The fact that it supports m4b is icing on the cake.

Have you tried viper4android yet? It requires root but is a great amp and even has custom headphone profiles that are adjusted for a wide selection of headphones for different manufacturers. I have Sennheiser Momentums and it makes the music sound amazing.

Looked at it, but since I'm rooted stock I wasn't sure if it would work.
I have to say that of the 4 that I've tried (Play Music, Neutron, Poweramp, and Gone Mad (the latter 3 all trials)), GMMP has so far yeilded the closest sound to my desktop rig using the same headphones, albeit not as loud or with quite the note separation.
I would have sworn that Neutron would do that.
The headphones I have really do need an amp to help bring out the full potential, but I'm pretty impressed with how everything sounds out of the N6. Better than out of my old iPhone without an amp.

Stock rooted w/custom recovery? If so it's really just a matter of flashing a zip and opening the app, installing a driver, and reboot. (edit) You also have to flash a permissive zip for SElinux.
There are configurations for headset, phone speaker, Bluetooth, and aux output.
On the gmmp , I've really enjoyed it tbh. I pay for apps rarely but I've been happy with this purchase. My only issue is it not sending album art to my car stereo very well but otherwise worth it.

Good to know. I didn't know if it would work with the stock kernel (yes I have TWRP installed).
I will have to give it a try. I plugged my E6 into my phone and headphones and was very impressed. I gave up on the E6 shortly after getting a proper headphone amp/dac, but the sound was the closest yet to my desktop rig which is a huge plus to me.

I like Rocket Player. The free version has a 5-band equalizer and the premium version a 10-band one, so you can get a lot of the functionality of Viper4Android there.

Best audio enchancer EQ?

Hello guys, from your experience, what would be the best audio enchancment software that can take control over apps like soundcloud and regular music players?
Im realy looking towards high quality sound, some basic EQ would be great too, but its realy more about the sound quality.
Cheers!
