Apple 24 Bit 96 KhZ

With a new iMac 2.8GHz 10.5.5 OS how best to get 24 bit 96 KhZ? I have formatted the Audio Midi Setup to 96KHz 2Ch-24 bit. Can you play 2496 source music from the iTunes either through USB or Toslink/digital optical cable from the mini jack into a state of the art DAC - which is best audiophile?

Swhitman, can you not tell just from the size of the file if nothing else? I do recall a conversation with Bel Canto about the dac. I think I recall that it can decode up to 2$/96 but no higher.

Thanks TBG - yes the file source is 24/96 but I want to confirm that Apple is indeed outputting it at 24/96 and not 16/44.1. Bel Canto is good up to 24/192 but it does not show the signal it is receiving. Thnx for your help.
