CuBox Project X

[Kunter]

The only tweak I could do is to move to a real time kernel (have no idea what it means... http://mubox.voyage.hk/realtime_kernel_cuboxi ) which made a big improvement on the sound.

This frightens me a bit! I am a reasonably competent user of a PC, but this this I find totally baffling! As a newbie to Linux etc, am I likely to struggle getting this set up?

Its quite easy... the web site has explicit explanation. If you ever used Command Line, it should be quite straightforward.

This is the main issue with computer audio... its very easy to get sound. But not so easy to get the best sound.

Cheers.
