I agree with Matthew. Plus, you should consider that the Devialet phono stage converts to 24/96 or 24/192 (selectable in the configurator). Re-converting this to DSD will not improve the SQ. Most people seem to set the phono stage to 24/96 as it is a little quieter. (less hiss)
Another point is vinyl sounds good in part due to the colorations that vinyl adds and even perhaps for some of the stuff vinyl takes away, but it in no way matches the dynamic range or frequency response that 24/96 is capable of.
24 bit will be as good as anything. 24bit FLAC is also a more or less universal format, compatible with most music players, DACs etc. As safe bet I would say.
