Jclsels, you said that Asset transcodes flac into wav or pcm - only if you ask it to though. It will happily serve up flac files to your player, but if the player doesn't support flac, then Asset can transcode on the fly to a format the player does support.
Also, if the player can't handle a particular sample rate or bit depth, these could perhaps be transcoded by the UPnP server program (of which Asset is an example), to something the player can handle - but again this would be at the request of the user.
OP, Linn and dbpoweramp.com both have great forums, faqs and other resources to get you clued up.
May just be something lost in translation OP, but when you say 'receiver', I think multichannel. I've only looked into 2 channel, which Linn gives you, so don't know if that's what you're after. PS Audio Perfectwave looks like it may be giving Linn some competition (think it's 2 channel), and the 6 moons review of that is pending.
