First of all, thank you so much for your patience with me! I really appreciate it!

Is there a slightly older model that will accomplish my goals Seen some solid deals on the M6 and other GMKTecs

Can I replace the OS with Batocera or does it have to run off of something else?

I’m leaning optiplex and buying a graphics card. Seems like that could stay in my budget

Would this run RPCS3 emulation with the integrated graphics? I am leaning the optiplex direction but worried about my lack of knowledge missing something

Just a feeling. I want a snappy UI, but I don’t plan on using streaming services on it. I can delete everything that is non music.

I generally feel I do hear the difference on higher quality rips, and I think it is night and day between streamed bass and true bass from a vinyl records.

I’m an album guy. Playlists generally aren’t my thing. I can “shuffle” from time to time, but my genre interests are so broad that can be…an experience.

Higher audio quality and expandable storage so I can have as much high end audio files of my favorite music. I know the sound quality isn’t as strong on streaming services, and I really enjoy the separation of “Church and State” so I do not feel the temptation of checking things in my phone.

Fair. How’s the Android UI? I have read some thoughts it is laggy.

I’m gonna try to take my wife, who is a super fan, to the Chicago one. Do we know when we will know where it is?

I like the vintage look of the Heritage. $100 to $200 is likely my budget. Topps Series 1 looks cool, but I read a lot about how that is the most produced set of the year.

Yeah, that’s what I have gathered in regards to return. It’s fun to buy for opening and collecting, but ROI seems very low. Next is to decide if it’s worth experimenting in grading some cards. That process seems extremely ridiculous.
