It will be easy to find a better DAC than the one onboard in your receiver. One inexpensive option: https://www.schiit.com/products/modi-1 for $100.

Try a direct connection from your computer's ethernet port to the LAN input port. If you can get your LAN set up and functioning, that might be the best of all worlds. Looks like an interesting receiver, good luck.
