Suggestions for HTPC

so did you buy the parts

Nope and decided to drop the idea of HTPC for now. Media player is simple and much convenient for HT usage wit a TV set up. Going to wait for media players. For sure in 1 or 2 years we are going to have updated version's of Nvidia shield,Apple tv and Zidoo players.

Khadas VIM3L with Khadas Toneboard DAC.

Installed Logitech Music Server for audio on a Asus Tinker Board 2S and even with a Asus dongle DAC (AI enabled USB C phone/PC audio adaptor) it trounces my laptop with iFi DAC for clarity and soundstage. mbhangui had explained in a post that the laptops / mac minis / mini PCs have muiltple DC to DC converters that add noise to the audio. Not so in SBCs like Asus tinker Board, Khadas VIM 3L , RPi etc. and cleaner.
