Best hardware DLNA renderer?

I've been tinkering with computer audio for about 18 months and its been somewhat exasperating, a 2 steps forward 1 step back affair. Most recently I've even tinkered with Jplay and a 2 PC setup using WS2012.

I'm finding now that this setup beats that

Control PC with JRiver MC18, DLNA enabled for audiophile 24bit DAC
Hardwire Ethernet connection between control PC and Oppo BDP-103

Coax out to Metrum Octave

Love this so much I want to figure out what better hardware DLNA solutions exist than the BDP-103 ( takes this about 2~3 minutes to setup DLNA connectivity where you see the Oppo as a new player option in JRiver).

Suggestions on a player that beats the Oppo's for DLNA horsepower as it doesn't look like the 105 is any different for DLNA?

Any recommendations

The Lumin Network Player sounds interesting and it has DSD too.

There are 2 very good reviews; one at 6 moons and the other at computeraudiophile. The links to the reviews can be found on the Luminmusic.com home page.

I still use a Logitech Transporter that I'm still very happy with, however I always have my eyes open for a successor. I also use MOG and Spotify though the Transporter.

Note, I haven't heard the Lumin player.
