There’s an app for Macs called Boom 2 that helps unleash the true potential of any headphones, including those cheap earbuds that came with your smartphone purchase.
The app helps boost certain levels of sound, like bass, mids, and treble to give your music a clearer, richer sound.
There’s also a special option that makes you feel like you’re on stage with your favourite band or artist, and it’s amazing. It will sound like your headphones just woke up and spread their wings.
Without the app, my music sounds flat, constrained, and muffled.
Yes, Boom 2 costs about $A25, which does seem expensive for an app. At the same time, we write about and recommend products worth hundreds, even thousands of dollars, so this app is a comparative drop in the bucket. Boom 2 is also a one-time purchase that you can keep forever and transfer to new Macs.
Here’s how it works.
