If 24 bit files are interesting for you:
HP-P1 (DAC/Amp) is limited to 16/48 regardless iDevice, player or server used (iPad officially not supported, but reported working).
CLAS (DAC only), official supports 24 bit for iPad only (check faq not manual page 7), but should work with iPeng since its player is the only one which officially supports 24/48 with iPhone/iPod Touch and up to 24/96 with iPad.
I've high hopes for the Sony PHA-1, only DAC/Amp combo to my knowledge for 24 bit.
