I am using a fanless mini laptop running Daphile its a headless system rips to flac .
I never been a fan of streaming untill I set this up control it off my phone or tablet it runs into my tc7510 very impressed with streaming now .

Was just looking at this, literally but not sure I want to spend this just now. Would like to get system workin* then look at “upgrades”

But it would meet the brief

I am not convinced. As long as the PS has sufficient current capability it should be fine.

I had a fanless laptop running foobar before my current RPi setup. Both systems used the same external DAC, and both sound just as good. The change to the RPi was more about footprint and power use for me. It is certainly much neater.
