DAC Output 192/16 vs. 192/24 Will I Hear A Difference


I am planning on purchasing a DAC in the near future and although I have done
some research, I am not clear on some of the technical aspects. I will be streaming
Qobuz from a Node 2i to an external DAC.

With Qobuz, will there be a difference in audio quality with a DAC that outputs
192/16 vs. 192/24? If there is a difference, will it be audible?
I am not interested in DSD.
Thanks.

In my room/system and using Foobar's "comparator" I could distinguish 24 bit files from 16 bit files but not 44 kHz sample rate from 96 or 192 kHz.Still, I cannot imagine having a DAC unable to decode at least 24/192 files.
