They all sound more or less the same to me, and I personally haven't found upsampling (HQPlayer or otherwise) to bring any obvious benefits. Others feel differently. Same for DSD. I now just send everything at its native rate and let the Devialet do it's thing, and not worry about it.
The upshot: there is no definitive answer as to 'what's best'. Listen and see what you prefer in your setup and way up any upsampling hassle/experimentation/nervosa versus just listening to music.
But I can say DSD 128 is definitively not possible. Not at the moment anyway. And of course DSD64 is out if you use AIR on a Mac, unless you use Roon, since they can actually get it working.
