By the way, you talk of "digital filtering" to get from, say 176.4 to 88.2 (or from 96 to 48 for that matter). But tell me, what's wrong or complicated with simply chopping every other sample word, and then halving the sample clock rate? Surely that's what DVD players do all the time if a flag is set to downsample at the digital output from 96kHz to 48Khz?
e.g. I've heared the results of playing a 96kHz DAD to output from my player into my pre-pro via the SP-DIF at 48kHz [if set the 96 => 48 option]. And no problems sonically (i.e. no artefacts).
