Junk

Completely useless. I added songs to the App folder on iTunes, opened the app and there was nothing although music files took space in my iPhone in some ghost folder. I guess they want you to buy the HD pack for $10 to use it. False advertising.

Works great

This worked great playing D64 files using DSD over PCM 1.0 using Sony PHA-2 DAC.

Works as advertised but needs updating

The player works as advertised on my iPhone 6+ with iOS 8.1.1. Works great with the new Creative E5 In USB Host mode. I give it 3 stars cause Id like to see: -Updated to take advantage of the iPhone 6/6+ resolution -Allowing to add cover directly from the App. Some wish list features would be -DTS files decoding... -output other than PCM for DAC that support native files

Ever best player

I have been loking for a music equaliser for many days. I tried many players but none of them could satisfy me. But after experiencing this app i am totally amused. It gives me many times more than i expect. Its equaliser really awsome.

Amazing Equalizer

Got a pair of Bluedio Model B headphones for Christmas and none of the iphone presets sounded good since the headphones are very bass-y. I was able to create my own equalizer settings easily and now the headphones sound amazing. Going back and forth between the Onkyo equalizer and the iPhone presets make you realize just how much of a difference this app makes.

Excellent App … but

first off an amazing app to play back all sort of high res files on your iPhone. I played ALAC, FLAC (up to 24bit/384kHz), DSD, DSF on my iPhone 6 plus via Apple Lighting - USB Camera adapter on my Oppo HA-1 with no problem. However some bugs as with all apps. If you transfer high res ALAC files like 24bit/96kHz or 24bit/192kHz the app will play them but it will not list them as HD tracks in the app and you have to start a guessing game which ALAC tracks that are actually high res files. The same file in FLAC would show under HD tracks. After you add songs to your phone in iTunes you can not delete them within iTunes. You must delete them on your iPhone. However when you go back into iTunes you still have all the songs listed and it seems no way to delete those entries. Also there does not seem to be a easy way to contact support about problems or concerns. FTP support would be nice as mentioned before. Also a way to delete the Equalizer presets since they are not to my liking. I understand in the free version you should be restricted. If you paid for the app like I did I should be able to delete them. Also maybe a nicer modern spectrum display ?

My Review

I like the look.. the feel and layout of this app!!! I would like to see Onkyo add the ability to have folders - another words If I have The Police as a folder with all of their FLAC tracks in them, I’d like to be able to access that folder and play all tracks within that folder. Make sense?

Best music player with Equalizer!

This is just an amazing music player all around the world that free and great equalizer. I wish to have update in every months, and I thanks to developers created such a beautiful music player with best equalizer.

Need iPhone 6+ Support

App works great. Just wish it supported the resolution of the 6+

Excellent

The app is really good, I just miss a better design. But its the best iPhone player and its free, so it is totally worth it.

This version update destroyed my ability to play iTunes songs.

This version update destroyed my ability to play iTunes songs. Now I hear nothing but variations on white noise.

Works as advertised

I got this to play my HD tracks. Works perfectly. Now I dont have to be tethered to my computer to hear them :)

LOL of course not

No iPad support? Portrait display only, so if you use it on an iPad in a keyboard case, its sideways? This app is 3 years old and they havent made these minor changes? Absurd.

Not able to use app in itunes to add flac files, please help or refund

I have the new iphone 6 and it seems like its not compatible with ios 8.1

More tease ware

Tease ware--apps that have a free version that does little so you have to pay for the real version seems all the rage in Ipad audio. This may be the tease ware champ. Does almost nothing in the free version. Avoid the free and if you want to roll the dice on the paid version do so at your own risk.

Works Perfect to add EQ Right in the Audio Player App

Great player app. Simple to use. Adds in app EQ adjustment right in the player. Can sort by your existing iTunes playlists, artists, songs, etc.

Excellent sound quality

I am using this with a Sony PHA-2 DAC and the sound quality is amazing, particularly with DSD DoP output.

Best app for high res audio

Linked with portable unit like oppo-ha2 This player turns your iPhone into high res audio player

Crashes for HD

I upgraded to the HD player. Then dowloaded a DSD music file to the documents section and tried to sync. The app crashes at that moment. Later when slecting the HD function of the HF player also causes the app to crash. I reinstalled the app but that did not help. I tried it on both my iPad and iPhone 6 and with the same bad results.

Marginal Improvement

Has some better functionality than before but now when I go into the app after opened (change the station or volume etc) the volume always cuts out then comes back on.
