You're dealing with two seperate issues here. The 96/24 DAC's are only used
for the analog outputs. DAC's have nothing to do with the digital outs. The difference is that the Pioneers send the full 96kHz/24bit singal to its digital outs. Except for the Theta DaViD the rest (that I know of) output 48/24. Now in order to get the benefits of 96/24 digital out, you'll need external DAC or processor that can handle 96/24. You'll also need a source encoded in 96/24, and there arn't that many DVD's encoded in 96/24, as far as I know only Chesky makes these, and they are just audio. As well technically 96/24 violates the standards for Optical and Coax, but I've never heard about anyone having any problems with this.It all depends on what you're going to be using your DVD for. If its for movies then the 96/24 out makes no difference at all. If you have a processor that can handle 96/24 and are planning on getting some of the few
disks recorded in 96/24 then it might be worth it. As far as I know there are no intentions to encode any movies in 96/24 (since it violates the standard), and most music will be moving to DVD-Audio which will not be compatable with existing DVD players.
