I use two of these:  Fitlet2 with intel/atom 3900

One for Snakeoil/Ubuntu desktop and the other as server with LMS/daphile.  Both headless, diskless, and boot from USB.  I use upnp/mpd currently as player.  Run everything from iPad.

I used to use a server/player configuration both with Daphile.  With Snakeoil as player it is more more detailed, 3D.  I don’t think mpd is overdetailed/ clinical at all though..  My DAC is tubed (Lampizator B7 MKII) which may help to smooth things a bit and this seems to be the right combination at the moment for me.

Edit: tried to add link but can’t for some reason.
