In closing I would just add don't go too far with the WiiM/USB approach before you try a server.
Most can be easily be spun up on Windows/Mac for testing purposes.
As its early days make sure you set dbPoweramp up to:-
write FLACs at level 5 - you can always convert downward after the event but never upward
write file names using discno and trackno with leading zeros e.g discno-trackno-tracktitle.flac - 01-05-something.flac (this aids sorting when looking at files via various software tools)
and add ReplayGain tags - you do this in DSP section of dbPoweramp (not the Apply version which permanently increases volume)
@simbun has some additional settings that I can't find right now but also represent best practice
