Compared my old AA DTI-Pro to a friend's DIP. DTI-Pro sounds sort of adds a golden shimmer to rock&roll cymbals. Massed strings also sound sweeter with the DTI-Pro. DIP (not the 24/96, never heard that one) sounds more accurate and true. The DTI-Pro was definitely adding something to the character of the sound (with an without the 20bit dither engaged) in addition to the jitter reduction. (This was with both an Adcom GDA-600 and MSB Link III DACs.) So it depends on what sort of sound you are looking for.
When I still had my Audio Alchemy stuff (DLC and OM-150) with my Eosone speakers, I liked the sweetness the DTI and GDA600 gave together. It smoothed out a bunch of my rock and heavy metal recordings.
I tried both the DIP and the DTI-Pro with my current EVS DAC, and neither did much for me anymore. So each system is different. If you want jitter reduction and a smoother sound, get the DTI-Pro. Else, if you just want jitter reduction, get a DIP or a maybe a better transport, or something.
