Audiophiles rejoice!

So I have tried many iOS music player apps to see if they actually make a difference in sound quality. Most sound the same as Apple’s built in music player app. But KaiserTone is different as it sounds so analogue. My trick is to disable all the extra processing in the app, turning off all equalization and setting artwork thumbnail sizes to smallest. This puts less stress on your iPhone’s processor, creates less jitter and gives better sound quality. Try it!

Serious App - Can be the best out there!

I just started looking into HiDef Audio and started my collection. One of the key piece is to have a portable way of playing songs and this app is hands down one of the best.
However just a few things to improve there:
- UX/UI could be better (it’s a bit of a mess - I can tell I am a pro software PM/architect/UX/UI designer working for $$$ corporate apps), even if I am not a big skeuomorphic proponent I would love an interface that mimics classic audio equipments (the way the volume buttons are implemented by ex.), you can get the inspiration form the amazing you tuber channel Techmoan (I love that guy!)
- I have my HD files stored on iCloud (or other cloud service through the Files app), please find a way to use those instead of copying everything on the SSD
- For those of us who are using external DAC, please indicate what is the type/rate of the connection (I’d like to make sure I am using DSD all through)

PS: I can help you with those if you’d like...

Kaisertone is a must have!

If you are looking for a app that has non-destructive EQ options, plays high-res music, a fun app that you can change the appearance and have lots of other options to play with...get this app. This is my main music app that I use. I also have the Relisten app which is wonderful! But it doesn’t have custom EQ options. The Kaisertone app is very easy to navigate and works and that’s what I needed. One of the options that I love is the graphic EQ that plays in real-time.

Great job Kaisertone team!
