Can I ask a question here... why do you want 176.4kHz playback? You are QUADRUPLING your storage requirements (more than that being 24-bit), not to mention DSP time to handle SRC down to 44.1kHz. Are your speakers capable of 88kHz HF playback to make everything else worth it? Can you hear 44kHz playback from an 88kHz source file?
I've been in the recording business for over 36 years and have been through all of the stories with the old 'classic' recording consoles where engineers claimed they could hear the 'air' above 25kHz, and maybe you can... but that's a lot of data pushing through your DSP. If the new 'standard' would shift to 24-bit from 16-bit you'd hear a LOT more of an advantage for the extra data throughput.
