I spent a considerable period of time in the past looking for sensible control options a la Squeezebox to work with UPnP/DLNA and found diddly squat. They are all clunky and flawed in various ways. Today (all day) as it happens I have been experimenting with a DLNA compatible device - Onkyo CR-N755 and Phillipe's UPnPBridge LMS Plugin. It will make the Onkyo into a SB player and allow sensible control with iPeng etc but there are caveats. Every DLNA device is different as there isn't a proper standard. Devices are DLNA certified, compatible or compliant - who knows what they all mean. So to answer your question. Possibly but a Raspberry Pi with DAC is a better fit but as with all things Squeezebox you need knowledge to set up and run a Pi. You don't need knowledge to plugin a DLNA player but you won't necessarily like the network playback experience it gives out of the box. Phillipe's UPnPBridge will get you the better control experience but with caveats.
