Maybe someone on this board can help with these items (in

One reason for minimalism is NOT related to cost. We are attempting to cut the analog path down to almost nothing. Balanced connection to the amp with known characteristics is much more forgiving than single ended.
It's all designed to be as direct as possible, and as a bonus, it's easy to set up and sonically optimized.
I'm interested in Raspberry Pi 2 as well as Chromebook. If someone else out there has a SB Touch type device with coax SPDIF out, I'd like to know. Anyone familiar with NUC?
Thanks.
