Hello guys.

I'm using a DragonFly Black with my Xiaomi MI 8 Lite.

Now I need a good audio player to use. Which one you recomend?

Best regards!

So no one?

I'd guess Hiby, Poweramp and or Neutron would be enough to get you going. Try them and see.

USB AudioPlayerPro
Neutron

Both are my favorite

What are the pros and cons of USB Audio, Neutron and PowerAmp ? Don't forget that I want to use my dac with it.

Thanks guys!

UAPP and neutron for DAC. Then you can compare the sound and UI yourself.

After some minor tests the first conclusion I got is: the best app for usb dac is USB Audio Player Pro. It was the only one app that didn't give me some wierd noises.

I use Neutron for listening to my flac library through USB, and switch to UAPP for Tidal. Neutron is my preferred app. Sounds great through USB and 3.5mm jack in HiRes mode. They have trial periods so you can see which is most suited.

I use Poweramp for my android lg phone and think its good

The problem is the tests I've done all apps gave me strange and metalic sounds and UAPP was the only one that didn't happen.

If I pass bit perfect flac and no EQ to my external dac from my phone, then they all sound the same to me. What don't you like about UAPP as that sounded ok to you?

Maybe the price I would say. Poweramp costs half of it.

If you tested it, it sounds good, and has all the features you need then your quest is over no? UAPP / Tidal / Dragonfly Black for example can provide mqa playback - but there are additional in app charges if that is your main issue.
