The sound quality of music played on Clementine music player is great. Music files played on it sound loud, and clear. Music plays very smoothly in Clementine without slowdown and choppy audio problems. The sound quality of streaming music from Sound Cloud, and other online services is smooth.
I like the simple to use user interface of Clementine with the large playlist list on the right of the program, and music playback buttons on the bottom. The Search, information, file explorer, and storage devices sidebar on the left of Clementine makes it easy for me to search my music library, and the internet for music to play on my computer. It is also easy to adjust the volume, and equalizer in Clementine.

Clementine also runs very fast even on my slower Raspberry Pi 2 mini computer which has a 900MHz mobile ARM CPU, 1GB of RAM, 8GB Storage, and onboard video and sound. Clementine only takes a few seconds to open after I open it by clicking on its shortcut icon on my desktop. It also plays music on my computer, and online music from the internet very smoothly without slowdown problems like choppy/slow audio. When I have Clementine open, and playing music, It also does not slow down my computer, so my computer runs smoothly even when Clementine is playing my music library in the background while I use my PC to browse the web, type on, and office tasks like word processing. It also does not use a lot of storage space on my Storage drive on my computer since the installer file is only a few MBs in size. Clementine is one of the best low system resource usage music player for desktop and laptop computers which run Windows, Linux, Mac, and Raspbian Linux for the Raspberry Pi.
