Some comments on the DSD performance. Archimago always uses the same set of DSD files generated at -3dbfs, I used Foobar2000 DSD processor to online generate DoP DSD64-128 at 0dbfs. My THD+N result is slightly worse than PCM 32/96 -124db(PCM -125.5db, I guess a worse result caused by the fact that THD compensation is not active in DSD). Also, I noticed that Foobar2000 has noticeably less HF noise(30-100kHz) vs Archimago's files, so to get a reliable reading of THD+N with these files I used my passive LPF. Foobar2000 allows THD+N reading directly by Cosmos APU without the LPF.
