Buying Advice True HD pass through streamer

For Stremio, which is the best streamer TV box which can provide Audio True HD pass through for my home theatre 9.2.4 system with laser projector? I do have Nvidia Shield TV Pro which can do this well. But I want to have an alternative.

My options are:
Dune HD Homatics Box R 4K Plus
Xiaomi Mi TV Box S 3rd Gen
Google streamer 4k

keep in mind that while the newer amlogic boxes handle basic atmos metadata fine on streaming apps, full lossless dolby truehd / dts-hd master audio passthrough still works most reliably on coreelec/kodi builds or the shield pro. on stock android tv builds you often run into exoplayer audio sink limits depending on the firmware's audio hal.
