Any devices like Squeezbox Touch but handle 192/24

I like my Squeezebox Touch but have accumulated some 192/24 files I would like to play back at full resolution. Are there any devices that would playback these files like the Squeezebox Touch that also have digital outputs for running into a outboard DAC? I know I could use a computer but don't want to setup a monitor, keyboard, mouse, etc. and my stereo is some 30 feet from my computer (too far for a USB cable).

I'm told the Touch outputs whatever it gets through the input: if 24/96 in, then outputs 24/96. Too bad there's no display to confirm this!

BTW, from what I've seen in forums, the audio quality through a USB drive attached to the Touch apparently is worse.

When I choose 24/96 files though my Touch, my DAC shows that it's receiving a 96 file. My DAC doesn't have a bitrate display, though.

Looks like the netgear ntv550 and Asus O!play handle 24/96 files. Any one here tried these as an alternative to the touch?
