Thank you

do you think Voyage MPD/ALSA/Ronald Config is not bit perfect? or you think it is not good?

AMR (thorsten) guys in munich 2017 recommended my friend to use Volumio . Volumio use Debian/MPD/ALSA and they claim it is bit perfect.
I think if all of these softwares (MPD, Volumio,mopidy) are bit perfect then the only thing i should consider is the config of kernel to which codes should be proccess at higher priority.

i have tested 2 macbook pro, 13" dual core i5 and 15" quadcore both 2013-2014.
the sound dynamics and image depth hugely improved by using "renice" command in terminal. i increased coreaudio priority in mac by :
sudo renice -20 "core audio PID"
renice command in terminal change the process priority of Tasks in cpu.

I guess using light OS/Software (true latency config) on low power mainboard/cpu (quad core celeron or AMD GX TDP<10w) is better than using super computers (high power powerful cpu) to eliminate the latency.
I think the main problem of low power mainboard/cpu is their power lines because of limited current and dirty that we could use PCIe to USB cards to get a good power from an external power.
 

I have ordered Fujitsu D3313-S5 from Germany , TDP is 5w , 1.2Ghz clock .
