Looking for Plexamp client info

I’d like to know if there are any plans to release a plexamp client that can be placed closer to home audio equipment. What I mean is a client that can be directly connected to home audio receivers. That is, the direct output of the plex client is connected directly to a receiver digitally, or preamp from an analog DAC output. This can include Plex roadmapped plans to integrate a client on a receiver or be external to the receiver but directly connected to the AMP.  
This could be a device with a touchscreen OR a headless device that could be remotely controlled form a ‘plexamp client’.

My desire is to have a jittery network in between the plexamp ‘player’ and the plexamp player ‘client interface’, but the plexamp player’s output should be directly connected (no network) to the amplifier/output)

So, for example - running a headless player on a RaspPI DAC stack, but being able to control the RasPI based player from my couch (tablet/cell/html), OR from a locally connected touchscreen (for example).

Pure Digital or DAC audio output from the player output to a receiver, without the jittery network in between.

You sound like a lot of fun.
