According to what I've been able to understand about the Okto DAC8 Pro and its current possible implementations in such a setup, one pathway might be the following: miniDSP U-DI08 to a miniDSP Dirac DDRC-88D, then then to the Okto, and then directly to a balanced multichannel amplifier. Is this at least one pathway that some of you who are interested in this Okto plan to implement it?

I had been looking at the Okto as you described, but after purchasing the JBL 708p's and 705p's, I am leaning towards using step one and two above, and just go digital direct from the DDRC-88D to the AES digital input on the speakers. Would be all digital until it hits the speaker. Without active speakers or amp with digital in, the Okto or multiple other DAC's would have to get in the path somewhere.
