You could just connect with s/pdif (coax/toslink) instead. Cheaper, neater and no audible difference.

Why a new dedicated SACD player has more noticeable sound quality difference than HDMI-I2S with new external DACs?

I bought a simple board for my own wiring. Only HDMI input and a pin header with I2S and SPDIF output, nothing more.
HDMI Extracts Digital Audio Signal I2S
You will then need a cheap board with I2S input and I2S over LVDS (HDMI) output and a clean 5 volt supply. The wiring between the two boards should be as short as possible, under 10cm.
