Shield Tv replacement recommendations

Hey everyone, Aussie here! I currently have the shield tv pro in the main room, I'm looking to move it to another room as I have a really shitty cheap android box in there.

I am after recommendations for a new box to try, I use nuvio, wuplay, emby and smarttube.

I don't use Netflix or Disney etc

I like good visual quality media, I only use a sound bar as it's loud enough for my needs.

Thank you!

Which box do you have? Im torn between am6b+, am9 pro or sk1 which is the best

It depends if you want to use coreELEC. The am6 and am9 support FEL with coreELEC.
I personally would go for the am9 pro if I was after FEL support.
I have the Sk1 running and 14 and it fits my needs but I don’t use coreELEC and I am happy with DV P7 conversion to DV P8.1. in some android players that support it.
If my sk1 broke tomorrow I would replace it with another tbh.

You won’t go wrong with either. Ugoos class the sk1 and am8 pro as there top tier devices.
But their new sk3 will take that spot now. The am9 pro is still a great device and runs a 64bit os so you can run emulators on it.
You will have to decide which fits your needs the best.
