ODROID N2+

There is already a bunch of ATV ROM / Lineage images with great underlying v4.9 Kernel support found over on there forums:

Android TV images are FAST when run from eMMC flash storage on the N2.

Personally I avoid Android for anything to do with high quality audio, especially once the Android audio mixer gets involved and outputs everything at 48kHz.

Linux on the other hand, has no such issues - and CoreELEC Kodi is very popular on that platform:

There is also Volumio:

As a bonus the N2 has an inbuilt high quality DAC.

I'm impressed with mine for a cheapish all in one package.
