Could you build this?
Partial A basic player with EQ is vibe-codeable, but a credible high-fidelity, 32-bit DSP engine with low-latency audio output requires real audio engineering expertise to get right.
What it would actually take: Build the player shell in a native framework such as JUCE or Swift/AVAudioEngine, with a metadata parser for FLAC and MP3. The DSP core needs biquad or FIR EQ filters, careful sample-rate handling, dithering, and clipping control, plus validation through measurement. Audio engineering knowledge is needed to make the claimed fidelity hold up.
