Happy Black Friday....
Looking for answers to the questions below, please.  I have searched for these, but was not able to confirm. Looking for opinions on the best choice, biggest criteria is overall sound quality.  24/192 is a must.  I will be pairing with a pair of Noble k10, and at this point (unless I can be convinced otherwise) I will be using a Fiio E12DIY, and upgrading to Muse.
 
X5-
Does the new firmware allow for native DSD?
With the new firmware, is the UI smooth and bugs worked out?
Can Rockbox be added?  If so, benefits?
 
DX90-
Is Rockbox an improvement?
How many bands is the EQ/memories? 
Does the EQ work in hi-rez?
 
I also have a ipod 80gig 5.5 video.  Possibly considering using it.
 
Ipod-
If external dac, will it support 24/192?
If Rockbox, EQ/work in hi rez?
Recommendations on a dac (portable)?
If I go this route, I would upgrade to SSD
 
Thanks in advance!  -Mike.
