My set-up with the etherRegen will be like this.
Yes it does look tempting, but it has to be better. I owe it to myself to test this one day, should be easy enough. But “unfortunately” the first person (Larry/lmitche) who tested whether upstream changes (in this case the server connected to the A side of the ER) still had an effect reported they do and even more than before.

My gut feeling tells me that you will still prefer the USB / AES connection over RAAT ...
Time and some ‘empirical research’ as in testing and listening will tell!
