Depending on what you're looking to do, baudline
(http://www.baudline.com/) may be a possibility. Audacity
(http://audacity.sourceforge.net/) is handy, but that is likely more
basic than you're looking for. Also check out iSpectrum
(http://www.dogparksoftware.com/iSpectrum.html), which has some useful
capabilities that the other two don't.
The real problem I've run into (though admittedly I haven't put a lot of
effort into checking in a while) is that there's no all-in-one solution
for OS X - basically, you end up having to take the toolbox approach
when what you really need is a Swiss Army Knife.
One other suggestion: if you aren't already running Macports
(http://www.macports.org) and aren't adverse to using the commandline,
install it and check through the audio ports. Most of what's in there
tends to be CLI-based, but it at least gives you options for
pre-processing the audio before dragging it into whatever package you're
using for visualisation.
