Истинные «аудиофилы» не терпят плохого звучания и именно поэтому покупают домой дорогие стереосистемы и прочее музыкальное оборудование.
Но, помимо грамотно настроенной техники, для качества звука важно и ПО, через которое он воспроизводится. Стандартные для ОС программы обычно не имеют широких настроек и воспроизводят не все типы аудиофайлов. Зато с такой задачей отлично справляются сторонние плееры!
Представляю вам топ, состоящий из 9 наиболее актуальных приложений для прослушивания музыки. Я намеренно не стала включать сюда таких гигантов, как Apple Music или Spotify – остановимся на более простых, автономных приложениях.
ComboPlayer
ComboPlayer – это удобный плеер, поддерживающий обширный список кодеков, а также передачу звука с устройств системы видеонаблюдения и IP-камер.

Если вы попытаетесь открыть файл, кодеки которого программой не поддерживаются, KMPlayer начнет искать их в своей базе.

Этот уникальный плеер сводит потери качества при воспроизведении аудио к минимуму. Исключительно высокое качество звука и наличие функции «мультирум» делает использование ПО максимально приятным. Теперь именно плеер регулирует потоковую трансляцию, управляя каждой частотой звуковых дорожек.
