Our main goal is to find a multi-functional and universal player, which will suit the real music lover and will be able to play both lossy and lossless formats. We are going to look for the best representatives in the field of audio players for Mac. Apart from FLAC and ALAC, WAV and AIFF are other two common lossless formats. There just 2 minor disadvantages: it “weighs” a bit more than a lossy sound, and that your player might not be able to play it (for example, iTunes does not play FLAC, but created its own lossless format ALAC, instead). No data is lost and as a consequence, the quality of the sound is much higher. Why? Because they preserve the sound of the original recording and it will never decay. Lossless sounds cannot be compared to lossy sounds. Popular representatives of lossy sounds are MP3, AAC and Vorbis. Lossy sounds usually lack some of the barely hearable tones and “weigh” a bit less. One cannot really call them “competitors”, they are simply different. The secret is hidden in the fact that there is a very big variety of music formats nowadays and some of them will not be able to present their true value if they are played with an average audio player.Īll the music formats can be divided into two big groups: lossy and lossless. And the secret is not only in the audio engines and all those new technologies which keep on advancing.
Did you ever think that your favourite track might sound very different if you play it with the help of some other audio player for Mac? It definitely will. Unfortunately, most of the people are so into their music that they do not even think about playing it in the other audio player than default Mac’s. Do you consider yourself to be a true music-phile? Can you cite the lyrics from each song from your never-ending collection? You are often mistaken for someone who is working in the music industry? It does not matter whether you are loyal to only one kind of music or your preferences change from time to time, what matters is your love for music.
