Sadly the chances of this happening are vanishingly small now. If the standards (such as they are) had been done right in the first place (which would not have been hard) it would be easy. They weren't. Like many others I went my own way, with some ideas from you, and probably wouldn't want to have to change it all again unless I felt there was a realistic long-term benefit to be gained.
So some clever ideas are needed, but I've not had any. I'm hoping you and your colleagues will! LMS 7.8 on VortexBox Midi, FLACs 16 or 24 bit. Touch on Ethernet (in another room), digital out to a Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC. Old wireless laptop running Linux Mint Debian controls server using Chromium. Squeezelite on Ubuntu & Windows desktops plus the laptop. Meridian Explorer USB DAC to listen directly to Vortexbox & other PCs as required.
