If somebody were to offer a kit to build a nice HTPC receiver, (assemble it yourself) would anybody be interested? I'm starting on a reference design for Analog Devices' Blackfin line of DSPs, and am kicking around the idea of using that processor as the brains of a simple-yet-high-quality audio receiver. It would end up being less sophisticated than most commercial receivers, but avoid making compromises in the power amplifier section just to cut costs. Seeing as how most sound cards have all the effects processing on board that anybody could ever really want, I see no reason to buy a commercial unit that implements it all over again.
Anyhow, it's a project that I felt like doing for myself, and was wondering if it would be worthwhile to document my efforts for others' use & adaptation.
