macOS – Best Way to Connect Remote Mac with Audio from Mac or PC

apple-remote-desktopaudiomacosscreen-sharingsoftware-recommendation

I am in a need of a solution, where I can remotely connect from my PC/Mac to remote Mac Pro or Mac mini with audio coming from it. I will be using VPN to access Remote Mac, so I couldn't get Airfoil working for me (correct me if I missed something from the tool). I went through several tools such as nuoRDS, SoundFlower (didn't work on Catalina), VNC Pro (paid one also didn't work for macOS).

Any ideal solution that would help me as I am looking for 10-15 users. So purchasing one tool or a year license would be a solution too but per month, per user, per session is quite out of context.

Please suggest anything that you recommend, I will test it.

I have found a very nice tool named SplashTop.

Why transmitting audio is not so easy in macOS:

Apple has discontinued the support of user-space audio plugins (HAL). Without this functionality, we can not capture audio from user session. The method proposed by Apple (Audio Server) captures audio from a single user session on console only. Therefore all old tool does not support audio redirection.

I have tested with FreeTrial on it and it works perfectly as I am looking for. No need to hijack or route audio from any third party.
