As far as audio goes, the DG812 tops out at 10MHz - which is way more than you need vs 25MHz for the DG1022.
The drawback for most arb generators is they are not necessarily geared toward hifi audio use. Many have very good phase noise specs which is nice for RF use and they generally have distortion specs that are acceptable for a number of uses. HiFi audio is NOT one of them.

Strictly as a troubleshooting tool, the DG812 would be fine. It has plenty of drive, sweep options and accurate level setting. If it's used as the stimulus for precise measurements, not so good.

Cheers
