Since you're concerned for monitoring DA, I'd say it's worth the extra. The RME clearly is a step up over the Motu (note, I'm judging from Fireface800 convertors, the FF400 uses slightly different convertors, but should be almost the same).

Another option is just getting a dedicated DA convertor to hook up on your Firebox via spdif for monitoring.
