I’ve got a fairly high end AV setup and want to simplify my sources for music and home theatre. What I use now is a 2012 MacMini that does both duties and I have been really pleased with it. I use Tidal, Roon, Netflix, Disney+ as my main streamers
Since getting a new 4K projector I want to take advantage of the higher resolution and newer audio codecs I.e Atmos, DTS-X, etc.
I would like to bitstream the multichannel audio to my Mcintosh MX170 and have full HDR support. Also would like Tidal to output MQA audio.
I am leaning towards the new 2018 MacMini as it supports 4K. Would I be missing anything over the AppleTV 4K, as far as the absolute best picture and sound?
