Help on new setup please

Hi all.

I’ll prefix this post with a bit of background. Been using Kodi (xbmc) for about 10+ years, streaming content from a Synology NAS to a couple of Revo 3600 boxes with no issues.

Sadly, 1 of the boxes has died so I need to replace it with something, but god its so confusing these days trying to work out whats best to go. Been reading on here all morning and I think now I’m more confused than before I started.

So, if someone could provide a a bit of assistance I’d be most grateful. My requirements haven’t really changed. Still stream from synology nas (hard wired), don’t need 4K, but need audio pass-through to AV receiver. Occasionally use live streaming.

Underlying OS doesn’t really bother me, but want something thats going to provide hassle free running for a few years. Whatever I decide, I’ll use to replace the remaining working Revo’s as well. Budget wise, middle of the road I guess.

Thanks
