Yes, it worked in the same way AN do in theirs DACs. They usually use AD1865N (18bit) but with 44.1/48/96KHz (locked at 96/18 IIRC) input capability and if the customer really wants they can make it read 192/24, but still locked at 18bit and always without up sampling. Now they (ANUK) are cooking the "DAC 6" a R2R DAC using theirs new "Ultimate Resistor", that one will be 44/16 IIRC but they can made it read ever 192/24 if the customer want to.

EDIT: You may find something relevant here:

EDIT 2: They use it (AD1865) from DAC 1.1x (2125€). The DAC 0.1X use TDA1543 (1550€).
