With 130dB os SNR (133 dB for a dual mono) you “only get” around 21 or 22 bits of useable dynamics.
And the PCM DAC is inherently part of the ADH amplifier itself.
Therefore, provided it is done correctly, you are not loosing anything by having an intermediate stage at 24 bits.
And as an interesting exercise, try building an alternative setup exhibiting such a high SNR, you might be surprised how difficult it is.
