The best audio interface for the Pi by far that I’ve found thus far is the
HiFiBerry PRO:

I have one of these, and it’s pretty much as advertised. Balanced audio, with
headroom out to around +16 dBM. It ‘just works’ with my RedSleeve setups.
What I have *not* done (yet) is take it out to a broadcast transmitter site to
see how it stands up to a high RF environment. I suspect that you’d want a
decent metal case in that situation.
Cheers!
