This software nags you with a dialog to call home even after activation. You get spammed by discount offers to upgrade every few days. I understand many developers in the apple ecosystem take advantage of the self serving nature thats common today, but these guys firmly have crossed the line.

impossible to use or set .Have been in touch with them and they said they would come back to me ....but nothing. Quite useless !!!!!

The sound is good, but it's a memory hog.

There is no evident memory leak with v1.3.8. I have it running at 181.8 MB RAM. There had been an intermittent bug where a restart would result in no sound driver loading, requiring a workaround of manually activating the Boom Audio drive in Sound system preferences. So far, that bug is not evident in v1.3.8. - - For me, this is a Must Have addition to macOS as it is so useful and successful at improving my Mac's audio. The devs keep improving it and ironing out occasional bugs. I wouldn't use my Macs without it. Oh and its sound driver allows you to record sound alongside screen recordings, something macOS on its own does not do. As a beneficial, essential app, I give it 5 stars.

The trial makes you want to uninstall immediately. Disabling itself after an hour every time? Speakers are cheaper. So, see ya, Boom.

It noticeably lowers the output volume when it's running in the background, regardless of whether it's "on" or "off". The only way to fix it is to quit the app. They company does not offer a refund, stating customers have a 30-day trial before purchasing. Fair enough. Don't be like me and impulse buy. Make sure it works to your liking before purchasing.

Tried the trial version on my MacBook with my Bluetooth JBL speaker connected. It crashed the first time. When I got it working the equalizer had no effect at all when playing a song. Kept getting annoying pop-ups. Uninstalled it. Then had to use a utility to hunt down files the uninstall left behind. Very poor.

I buyed a Senheisser 260 HD headphones and I was kind of dissapointed on them because they didn't sound loud enough... a friend suggested me to buy an external portable HiRes amp, and I tried to find some virtual amp for MacOS... and so I stumbled with Boom3D...installed the try version and ... I felt in love with my new headphones!!! they sound absolutely perfect thanks to the Boom3D amp and 3d surround effect!! I think I had never buy an app so quickly in my life! The best 12$ spent ever!!!

yes the charge every so oftenn is anoying but it is one of best music app players i enjoy and play the most at home next to Megaseg Pro..and i can use it with my Audio Quest Dragonfly..go together like steak and lobster.
