Monarchy 24/96 DIP and DacMagic?

(copy of earlier post by smholl): Does anyone have any experience or opinions as to using a Monarchy 24/96 Upsampler to the Cambridge DacMagic? Since the DacMagic will take up to 24/96 and upsample to 24/192 why not feed it the highest sampling rate possible? Or does it really matter to the DacMagic what it is being fed, since everything is upsampled to 24/192 anyway?

I thought the post looked familiar :).

Audio Advisor (who sells both pieces) told me that it probably would not make an audible difference. so they suugested money is better spent in other areas. I am feeding the Dac Magic with a Squeezebox Duet. Big improvement was adding Channel Islands Audio power supply the Duet.
I have yet to find an upgrade PS for the Dac Magic.
