Could you build this?
Partial A basic Android audio player is trivial, but true bit-perfect hi-res audio playback bypasses Android's default audio mixer (AudioFlinger) and requires low-level audio engineering.
What it would actually take: The app needs an Android native layer using the NDK and AAudio or Oboe, integrating custom decoders (e.g., libFLAC, ffmpeg) to bypass Android's 48kHz resampling pipeline directly to USB DACs or proprietary hardware DACs. Developing a custom 10-band parametric EQ and gapless playback engine without audio glitches requires DSP knowledge and low-latency C++ audio development skills.
