You asked for the best deal today on a $500 budget for a "something I can take with me around the house" solution; is $548 close enough? FYI I'm an on-ear solution, not a stick in the ear person. Otherwise you could get some balanced IEM's to go with a player like this and match up to your budget.
If there was a go fund me to create a virus that would frag every MP3, I would be in; an evil music-debilitating scourge created by marketing weenies.
DSD 2.8-5.6 & PCM 192 kHz/32 capable, wired or wireless player with 24-bit/48kHz wireless capable cans, or you can plug them in for Bluetooth direct bypass. To come close to budget you need to look at refurb cans though, but still perfect for what you are asking. Intriguing tech in the cans... a step closer to: https://www.massdrop.com/talk/2405/digital-sonic-fluidity

samhithYes, what gear are you listening with, that you do not hear a difference between 320Kbps and 24/192?

rastusI don't have gear that can play native dsd. Recommendations. I could understand that you may be able to hear the difference through maybe something high end like a 3000$ rig but otherwise it's not fit for me.
