The SB3 can never do 24/96 the computer part of it can't handle it .

It it sounds a little sales gibberish talk to me these upgrades. A good
thing would be to leave any squeezebox alone and connect a very good DAC
if you need better . you can do that to your SB3 or a Touch or possible
a Transporter if needed or one of these mini computer based player like
squeeze plug or similar that other members are building RasPI odroid ?
Or what they use :) sorry I'm not up to speed on the latest DIY
squeezebox ( there are many of those )

And actually if you run LMS on sufficiently powerful
server/PC/NAS/laptop/whatever it transcodes any file the player can't
handle to something it can handle so the the 24/48 limit of a SB3 does
not really limit you ! You can enjoy any music file anyway .
Unless you really need to run the server on something that does not do
transcoding.

In fact using 7.9 you can even use DSD files on any squeezebox , not
natively but the server does it .
