Neutron Music Player App Reviews

Good

I like it. I use it to stream lossless to my iPad from my plex server. It works much better with the power of the air 2 processor compared to my iPhone 6 plus.

The Best!!!

This music player is the bomb! In a class all buy itself!

This is the worst update!

After update to this version music player during playback music makes The restart the spring board! Why!? Really disappointing!

One of the best music player apps to date.

Note: This is not for people who have a hard time understanding the different sound settings that an advanced music player app like this would have. To my review: This app has officially turned into my go to music player for all my music listening. From the different EQ settings to being able to simulate surround sound quality, to even being able to obtain optimum music quality, this app takes the cake. No more fiddling with the car stereos EQ. Not even the Radsone music players can compare to the quality this player can dish out. This could use up a lot of CPU so unless you have an up-to-date iOS device, keep only this app running. Recommended for advanced audiophiles.

Nice sound but lots of bugs

The shuffle feature is completely useless as it resets the plays everytime you switch out or close the app or power off the device. I havent managed to play more than 200 of the 1400 songs on my phone because it keeps playing the same songs over and over. There are other quirks, but this one is the biggest. The sound is a nice improvement over the built-in music player once you get the settings adjusted to your liking.

Great features, VERY unfriendly user interface

Outstanding features superseding any other music player available on the marker. However, the developer tried to come up with unique non-traditional ios app (ios7/metro) design which makes this app hard to work with. Features and setting menus are all over the place and come nowhere close to the simple and intuitive design that most of the traditional apps have. In the traditional design everything is where you expect it to be , which makes the user experience great without any headaches. I wish Neutron was like that. For example, try to delete song file or add a single song to a playlist - good luck with that! You have to go thru several menus to do JUST that. Just imagine if you have 300 songs you have to organize in a playlist. Pure Headache. Now Checkout how things are done in the original ipod app, TuneShell , Oplayer - much more smooth and convenient. The whole iphone concept can be summarized in one word - SIMPLICITY. People buy the product because it is easy to learn and use. I really hope that the developers can do a facelift and optimize the app design at least a little bit.

The bar has been raised!

I love the new 10 band graphic equalizer ability! This app truly has audiophile quality audio; especially while playing lossless audio files. While I may not have teenage ears, with high quality headphones, I can tell the difference between 256k and lossless audio 95 % of the time depending on the songs dynamics and sound stage presence. This app wont corrupt your iTunes library either like the new iOS 8.4 Music app with iCloud will. The user interface is a little complex at first. After I got used to how it works, I can just taste the pure sonic delight.

Works Well but Needs Work

Neutron music player works well with playing the music and bringing out the best sound possible from wav and flac music files, but the user interface is not good. The loading of music into the app is way more complicated than it should be, and the overall usability of the app could be greatly improved. I hope that the app will be improved someday.

Awesome App!

I just purchased this app because I was feed-up with not having much control over my music on both my phone and iPad. Not even a crossfade option. Com’on Apple we buy your products isn’t that enough.. do you have to have total control,with your apple music. For anyone who wants total control of their music, how it sounds, plays, fades, equalizes etc this app is a god send. Great job! Very professional, and my music has never sounded better. Thank you.

Slow, buggy, confusing user interface, poor UPnP implementation

I bought this app in the hopes of using it with my WDTV live and music on my NAS box. The WDTV live has a pass-through capability where it will send music files directly from the NAS to the decoders in your preamp via HDMI. This is absolutely the best way to listen to audio, as the D/A conversion takes place with high-quality hardware DA converters just before it hits the amplifier. With this app, all of the d/a conversion takes place on your phone and the audio is either streamed via airplay which is limited to 16/44 or to your UPnP device as an analog signal. With the decoding taking place on the phone, it shortens battery life drastically and heats up the phone and no matter how great their software decoders may be, its not going to match the high-end hardware decoders that are in your preamp. So if youre into high-end audio, this app is not for you. Both 8 player and Media:connect support true UPnP implementation by passing through the digital file to your renderer. I also could not keep my WDTV live selected as a render. The app kept deselecting it and crashing bouncing me back to the home screen. In addition, as others have noticed the interface is extremely confusing and not very user-friendly. The scrolling out the app is slow and not very smooth 5-s), so its very easy to make a wrong selection. I gave it two stars because for some uses if you are direct connecting it to your speaker it might be a useful app. The interface is still slow, confusing, and buggy. I ended up requesting a refund for my purchase.

High Res, DLNA, EQ & More

This app takes some work to get comfortable with (importing library through DLNA was a trial and error process) but offers outstanding sound and a quality eq once youve gotten comfortable with UI. Only app on the market that offers DLNA streaming for wireless HDD connectivity and EQ. I connect a WD Passport Wireless through DLNA over wifi and stream my entire music library on the go. Thin or compressed music can be massaged with well implemented onboard EQ. User interface isnt as nice looking as some but sound quality is top notch and it has more customization options than any app out there.

Ugly, unfriendly and terrible dlna support

This player can do a few simple tasks. Lets you control EQ and levels, allows to browse network shares but only default ones and has very poor dlna/upnp support that destroys overall user experience. Sorry guys, this product is overhyped.

Spectacular - Will NOT disappoint - alternative to Can Opener !

I was a disciple of Can Opener. Simple. Worked great. Sounded fantastic - sound in my GTI came alive and was spacious ! But it stopped working after running FLAC. Could not after multiple clean reloads and reboots get it to work again. No sound. And then the kicker - NO CAN OPENER SUPPORT ! No email answers after weeks of waiting before this happened. And none since either with the failure. That made me mad. Humph. Enter NEUTRON - simply ROCK SOLID ! Dozens more controls and sound shaping options than Can Opener. A MUST HAVE for audiophiles with music on the go ... This is what Ive been looking for. As simple or complicated as you want to make it. And sounds MO BETTA than Can Opener. Be patient. Try things on this app - it will give you what you want. Just dont over process your music - small adjusts and BOOM ! Enjoy this app - this makes my new stereo install sound like a concert hall. I cant see how any one could be disappointed with NEUTRON. Get this app. Signed : their newest disciple :)

Gets better with each update.

Awesome sound quality and control. This and Kaisertone are the best Ive heard.

VERY GOOD PLAYER

Please add unpacking archives (zip,rar,7z...), because it is inconvenient to add audio files from other applications.

Probably the best...

Probably the best music player in the App Store for people who truly want to experience their high fidelity music files.

The best

The best equalizer/player if you love music: --Details --Soundstage --Graphic user interface --Settings to improve/adjust audio --Support/updates

WOW!!! This is a serious good app!

What a secret treasure I stumbled upon. VERY surprised that bonafide audiophiles arent onto this. I will preface my view by stating that I am a novice but like my music to sound really crisp AND am very partial to songs crossfading, though that often seems too much to ask for in most apps, lolol. Anyhoo, this here gem has sooo many options that I am having lots of fun tinkering around with it, who knows, I may discover some hidden dj talent yet. Only suggestions Id add would be to have the song title appear larger on screen and since navigating through the app is not as intuitive as it could be, work on making that easier. Overall, kudos to the developers, this appears to be quite a powerful app chockfull of features!

Neutron

Well worth every penny! Fully feature rich & packed with tons of customizations for the perfect sound quality. The one feature that I value over all is an up dated project. Thanx devs for your outstanding work. :)

I think Ive found my hi res audio player!

Ive been trying various high resolution music players. So far, I LOVE this player! Incredible, audiophile-on-an-iPhone player! iPhone 6 Plus, Neutron, Oppo HA-2 DAC/headphone amp and Sennheiser HD-600 headphones. AMAZING portable audiophile system!
