I STILL can't live with the Raspberry Pi4 USB output on ANY of my DACs.Mine with a battery power supply via star quad DC cord is almost as good sounding as the ultraRendu. Certainly more bang for buck.
The RPi3B/Allo DigiOne is a better match for the Music Hall DAC in the garage as neither one is at its best using USB.
