I agree that the SB Receivers have more reliable sync than other non SB solutions. But I can't agree about the "cheaper" part, at least not here in the UK! I recently wanted another SB player, and ended up with (my first) RPI and a low cost USB DAC. It sounds better than my SB Receiver, which I do like, but I couldn't find one for under the equivalent of under $60 here. I do like the Duet version have though, and would happily have paid a premium to get another Controller, which I think is great to have around because of the hardware controls it has. The iOS / Android apps are ok but not so easy to use. Interesting thread though. I use Squeezelite on a few players now, including my in my high end system, where it drives my Discrete R2R ladder DAC and sounds superb.
