No. I don't go above 96KHz sample rates because I use optical connections in my setup and some gear doesn't support more than 96KHz via optical (while some does).

I had some 192Khz files for a while, and had foobar down sample to 96 while playing if I was using components that didnt play it, but decided that it just wasn't worth the storage and hassle, so it all got converted to 96 KHz.
