"Does what it claims"
Version: Boom 1.3
Pros
Adds EQ to your Mac audio, along with being able to boost audio level on those occasional audio files or YouTube videos that are recorded so quiet that you cannot hear them. It works well on my 2009.5 MBP.
Cons
A little pricey, but not too bad. Once installed, you have two volume settings, the primary OS X setting, and the secondary Boom setting; also not a huge issue. That's two minor issues, but you can now hear what's being said on the quiet videos.
Summary
I was frustrated because I was trying to listen to a YouTube video on my MacBook Pro, and I couldn't get the audio level loud enough to understand what was being said (it was a lecture). Even with headphones, I couldn't easily understand what was being said. I had remembered reading about Boom, so I installed it to see if it would allow me to hear the lecture, and it did. Problem solved!

How should I know? The icon shows for two seconds, and then disappears.

Does not work. I wrote to customer support, never got an answer.
