Many people describe Audirvāna Studio as “the audiophile music player.” The use of this term likely either excites or bothers you. With your files in the cloud, you can listen on your Mac or iPhone whenever you want without worrying about running out of space. This feature is also useful as it ties into the Vox iOS app. Vox Premium also includes unlimited storage with Vox Music Cloud, which is handy if you’re running out of hard drive space. The subscription also adds gapless playback and the ability to automatically set the sample rate of your output device to that of the file playing. With a subscription, you’ll also get advanced audio settings, like a built-in 10-band equalizer to tailor the sound to your tastes. All in all, Vox is one of the best alternatives to Apple Music for Mac users. This isn’t especially common, but it’s a nice feature to have. On the off chance that you have music in surround format, you also get 5.1-channel support. Vox can play hi-res audio in up to 24bit/192kHz. If you have no idea about these formats, read our guide on choosing the best audio formats for your use case. In addition to FLAC, Vox features support for other hi-res formats like ALAC (Apple Lossless), DSD (Direct Stream Digital), and uncompressed formats like PCM, WAV, and AIFF.
