if you have a quality HD sound card in your PC it is very easy to enjoy bitperfect playback. 
Foobar2000 >  wasapi plugin > HDMI/optical to receiver. done. 
..this is bitperfect. all songs will playback at native sample/bitrate - zero upsample/downsample - even in shuffle.
 
if you have a newer receiver you can verify the bitrate being received. the wasapi playback support (in win 7) is the key.

 no OS X  

XP 
  
yeah
have also foobar with asio plugin, check the other plugin (wasapi)
my soundcard is a fuckable internal Audigy 2, the other is an external tascam 144mkII (testing)
use it with external DA via optical (very short) up to 24Bit/96kHz
24Bit/192kHz only with aux output from the Audigy (use this with higrade audio transformer )
