Anyone using Boom 3D...

[yansun]

... (upgrading from Boom2) and can tell if it is worth the money? Is there a noticeable difference in sound quality compared to Boom2?

I upgraded from Boom 2 to Boom 3D, and with my system I am unable to detect any appreciable difference. For sure, no difference worth the cost. Perhaps those with high end speakers/headphones (or younger ears) can justify the additional expense, I cannot.

FWIW: I like Boom, but in this case, I paid too much for it.

Thanks for your reply!

Just came across this app randomly and it seems all the reviews are awesome. Do we have any fellow forum member using it? I would like to have some reviews from the guys here before buying it. Please mention the headphone you are using to experience the enhanced audio.

It wasn't for me, I generally use headphones and it didn't seem to improve the sound on my iMP (which has pretty decent speakers...).

You can DL a full-featured 7-day trial directly from their website and judge for yourself.

I regularly Facetime with a 90 year old friend whose voice is thin and raspy. I got Boom 3D because I was hoping to amp up the midrange so that I wouldn't have to wear headphones.

I failed to notice that Boom 3D doesn't work with Facetime.

So I uninstalled it, because it didn't do what I wanted it for. It's not Boom's fault although I think they could have put that restriction a little more front and center.

I use everyday. It´s fantastic. The sound of Mac increases a lot. Great App for music lovers

I tried using it for a while, didn't notice any significant improvement and deleted it.

I've read a ton of reviews stating how great it is, but I've never met a single person who has it that says it's worth keeping installed.

Me. I have used it for a long time and it does improve the sound and volume on my MacBook a lot.
