"sync is lost" means that one player is 200,300 or 500ms behind the other and then both players play but did not sync again. And this happens suddenly within a second. I will test a view things the next days(change BT-Speaker to analog output, change WLAN to ethernet, play long local tracks).

I suspect they'll work with PiCoreplayer as the DAC is supposedly HiFiBerry compatible. Not sure about the screen. I intend to pick one up myself, but need to also acquire a Pi Zero WH to go with it, and there's a shortage of the latter at the moment.
