[CLOSED] Pulseaudio over network vs Pulseaudio on top of netjack

Which one is reliable and has less latency? I want to send audio from my desktop computer to Raspberry Pi 3 B+.

I want less than 40ms of total latency for lip sync while CPU and HDDs of my desktop computer are under full load.

I do not want pops and crackles resulting from xruns.

Update // I decided not to use pulseaudio because I was disappointed by it.

If you don't want xruns you want TX and RX to run at the same rate. I suggest looking for a transmission system that includes clock management/control. Something that is just slinging packets over TCP/IP or using UDP does not include that. Look for programs that use the RTP protocol, which embeds timing info into the stream.
