Best Android EQ program/music player with EQ

So I'm not completely satisfied with Vibrant's default music player and its EQ. I tried Astro Player but the EQ on that is crap. I found out MixZing has THE EQ I'm looking for and it sounds quite amazing but the app itself is not ideal as a music player and the EQ taxes the CPU = lower battery. Is there another player with a similar EQ or is there a program I can use to force a EQ over the ENTIRE phone (not just music player) so that I can then use any music player. I don't care if I have to root the device to get such an app to work.
I'm new to Android coming from Nokia XpressMusic series (which sound amazing with their EQs) so looking to replicate that. It's a HIGH priority for me being an audiophile.

Looking for a decent music & video player

The HTC music player doesn't DL album art automatically. Is there a better featured music player? And recommendations for a video player.
Thanks.

I'm a HUGE fan of MixZing. It has an Album Art option and is well worth the paid version. As for Videos, I have used RockPlayer in the past. It works well and has good codec support.

i agree completely, used to be a huge fan of mixzing until i found player pro, it has all the same features plus gives you lock screen controls as well as several widget options to fit your screen's needs

Does anybody still use the cubed music app? I loved it. It downloads the album artwork, too.

Just bought playerpro, its fantastic and replaced MusicMod for me. For videos i use RockPlayer since its simple and allows me to watch .AVIs without having to convert them to .mp4 files first.

This ^^^^
PlayerPro is the ishnish.

I love Meridian Media Player. there is a free and paid version. It plays all of my videos and music, let's you create playlists, downloads album art, shows lyrics if embedded, and works flawlessly.

Just downloaded Music Player and the beta of Winamp, but it seems neither of those read our internal storage so they are worthless to me.

FYI - the new powerAMP trial can see internal storage right out of the gates! Good work, developers!

[Q] A music player with lyrics?

Hi all
I'm looking for a music player that can show the lyrics of the songs. I know player pro or ttpod can do that but i want to put the lyrics on my own. I used to have an iPod and i was putting the lyrics with iTunes. While i was listening to music i was able to change the musics too but i cannot do it with player pro. Can anybody help me?

JetAudio has this feature as far as I remember. Have a look at their website.

PowerAmp + musixmatch plugin!

Thanks so much I'll try it now!

tunewiki should do the job, and more...

Edge?What is the ultimate music listening/management suite of apps for the S7 edge?

Folks, I have a pretty large non-DRM .mp3 music library in iTunes. I have used ISyncr in the past, with my Galaxy s5, to bring down playlists and music and synchronize my Android phone to iTunes. Lately it hasn't been working well, probably because I have well over a thousand playlists.
I am also looking for the best music player, and wish to add Lyrics, and am intrigued by the Viper 4Android sound app, but I don't want to root my phone.
What do you all recommend as the best music player, the best app to sync iTunes, the best audio effects suite of apps to a music lover? Thanks so very much in advance for your help!

I've used all the free and paid music players over the years. Neutron is truly the only professional solution. It literally has every feature, where most players offer half of what neutron does. Poweramp is good for consumers too. Idk about iTunes syncing, I organize all my music in folders. Neutron has the most full featured non-root EQ, but if you're rooted eXtreme beats is coming out with a new revision soon.

for a regular user i think poweramp is the best music player.. nice sound and controls plus skinning. you can import playlists and export them as well.

Neutron is widely considered the best by audiophiles followed by Onkyo player (unlocked).

personally i leave the mp3 tagging stuff off of the phone. I havent found any apps that will properly list and tag mp3's as well as i can do it on a computer.
Assuming you're on windows, use MP3Tag to manage all your tags. it works on way more than mp3's, but it is by far the best solution for media library management.
For playback, i jump around on windows. Musicbee looks nice and is full featured. Winamp is nice. Foobar is very spartan and quite ugly but it works well and you can make it look more or less however you want, though it takes a lot of effort.
On the phone itself i use poweramp for music playback (though i do find the interface a bit clunky, and i dislike the "queue" thing it does). Neutron always gets good ratings. I had a horrible time with onkyo hf player. winamp is OK at best.
For audiobooks, i use SmartAudiobook Player. there are some weird bugginess issues, like when my head unit automatically starts the audiobook app instead of music, and refuses to play nice with it. Like if i stop the audiobook player and start music, sometimes the music will immediately stop and audiobooks will play instead. but my car is so damn loud that i use headphones while driving most of the time anyways.

I think JetAudio plus does a great job.

Where do I start lol...I have slowly turned into an audiophile and always look for the best audio on my phone so I have tried just about all the most popular music players / audio configs i could find on my phone,
I have also tried external DACS / Amplifiers and to be honest with my setup did not do much for me..I am running SOL Master Tracks XC headphones which are amazing with this phone and would totally recommend Neutron or Poweramp they seem to give the best sound from all I have tried and are also very customisable with the sound...
ViperFX is a must!! and the options / tweaks are just insane and what a difference it makes with a simple change of Convoler and EQ,
I use ViperFX with Dolby Atmos and Beats Audio which seems to me the best option and I flick between Neutron and Poweramp which i am still not decided on

What do you guys think of PlayerPro Music Player v3.7 ? I think it has the most features but I don't know how it compares to others, so I need your help to decide .

Rocket Player Pro is great! Using it for years!

Been using Timber for a bit now. Mostly use it because it looks really slick. I like the material design it has.

Player pro amazing app, I switched to Neutron which I am currently using and was using Poweramp before that, I find Neutron to give a more Natural better sound than others but Neutron / Poweramp / Player Pro and Jet music are ones id recommend

I'm a Poweramp fan myself.
There's an option in the app to opt into the beta, which let's you try an overhauled new version which improves on a lot of the old usability issues.

I use this. I've used it for a few years. I love it. Plenty of skins, downloadable DSP Pack for additional audio controls, has it's own lock screen. :good:

Thank you for your replies..
So I guess if I stick with PlayerPro Music Player ,I am not missing any other features and the sound of other players is not greater/nicer than this ?!

Stock, because there's no real difference.

the best is power amp beta version try someday

Music Player Recommendation?

As you all know the phone comes with Google Play Music, which is fine and all but would like some recommendations in case anyone knows a better player that has better usability, looks and features.
Currently I use two players for specific reasons:
1. Sony Music (the one ported here in XDA by Ben Ling as if simple, good looking and works great with Android Auto as also let's me download better album art.
2. Musicolet which I use only for bluetooth audio as it's the only one I could find that has a propper Media Browsing implementation over bluetooth, with this I'm able to browse the Artist, Albums and Songs from my Mazda infotainment just like having an iPhone.
But in reality I dream of having a Player as good looking as Poweramp with the IDTag editing of the Sony one and the compatibility of Musicolet
Please share what player you use and why, maybe we can discover that player that does it all and looking good at the same time

I use Black Player. It's minimal, black and plays tracks in shuffle/loop better than others that I've tried. Plus the widgets have a minimalist option too.

I used Poweramp before I switched over to Spotify and I really loved the features it offered, you can try the free test version from the Playstore

Dub music player.

Shuttle + music player. It has a good ui and lots of options for artwork and theming etc

Poweramp + Viper4sound + KZ ZSR
Long live torrents MP3!!

Also love the Sony one, would definitely buy it if being sold for any phone and for me it's just lacking the Bluetooth Media Browsing that Musicolet has.

I use Retro Music Player

Pulsar music player, simple, customizable and minimal the best in my opinion

black player here . really love it cant find anything better

I really love Poweramp, but being in Android Pie 9.0 (stable) and with the last Poweramp beta does not work well, when a notification comes the sound really distorts, I thought it was the device, try other players and nothing.
The only one that has convinced me so far is BlackPlayer Ex, really recommended

The highest rated Android music player (for good reason). Been using this for years, use lucky patcher to remove ads. I also use stereo mod for surround sound and Viper4Android for the equalizer even though the one built into Pi music player is just fine.
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.Project100Pi.themusicplayer

Player pro. Free skins, best ui and ease of use. 10 band EQ instead of the 7 band the others have. Haven't felt the need for V4A with player pro.

BlackPlayer EX is the best play store purchase I've ever made hands down. Yes, better than Titanium Backup.

I use Neutron for local music. Way better than Poweramp IMHO. I haven't tried the black player yet though.
As far as sound quality goes, I think DSP mods are more important than the player itself. I use the Air Sauron, V4A, AML and the ACM DSP mods. V4A in particular makes a huge difference in quality. It does add a bit of latency so I wouldn't use it for production purposes however.

All great options, tried several of them, retro is beautiful too, but the bluetooth media browsing is not working correctly
Found that Player Pro and Musicolet are the only ones working 100% with android auto and bluetooth media browsing :'(

Stellio is the best

Poweramp
I have been using the latest stable builds of PA on my rooted Pie OP6. Never had a problem, and I use it many hours each week when I'm on planes and Pandora won't work.
