Will your setup be essentially the same with the uRendu and the RPi driving the same DAC over the same interface?
The RPi will be using its coaxial output via an RCA to BNC cable previously used with the Touch to the DAC8. The uRendu required the use of USB to S/PDIF converter where it is likewise attached to the BNC input on the DAC8. For only another $500.
So, I guess I'm really comparing a $1500 solution ($640 rendu+$400 HdPlex+$500 Audiophilleo) to the $120 Pi with Jameco linear. :)
