Based on what Jaco has said the CLUX needs an active sink plugged into it to function. I will double check that.

The Radiance is nice because it has individual HDMI receivers for every input. That allows it to receive HDMI from any of your sources (basically to act as a switcher for the CLUX) while at the same time also acting as a sink for the CLUX. I do not think many other devices out there can do this because they only have one HDMI receiver. And some will act as a repeater not a sink.

For those considering a modded CLUX that don't have a Radiance it would be a very good idea to try it in your system stock to make sure you can get analog audio from it in a method that works for you. If it doesn't then return it, if it does then consider getting it modded.
