Audiofile Engineering Fidelia 2.13.2 for Mac
Mac AudioFidelia, from Audiofile Engineering, is a music player for Mac listeners who care about exactly what happens between a file and their headphones. First shipped in 2011 and rebuilt from scratch for the Fidelia 2 generation, it offers bit-perfect, gapless playback of the music you own — FLAC, DSD, Apple Lossless and more — through a signal path you can inspect and adjust. Built-in mastering-grade DSP, headphone processing and Audio Unit hosting let you shape the sound without leaving the player.

FAQs
Is Fidelia a subscription?
No. It is a free download with a 14-day full trial, then a one-time unlock. The developer is explicit that there is no subscription, and network playback features are a separate one-time unlock.
Does Fidelia stream Spotify or Apple Music?
No. Fidelia plays music you own — local files, your Apple Music library files, internet radio and libraries served over Lyrion or UPnP — rather than streaming services.
