Remarks
MUSE HiFi lists the M3 Ultra at 32-bit / 384 kHz PCM, and the descriptor keeps the whole of it: native 16-, 24-, and 32-bit containers, each carrying the ladder to 384 kHz on a high-speed asynchronous interface. A depth and a rate are both named and both met, so the PCM line scores plainly.
DSD is claimed native to DSD256, and the transport is the real one — a Type-1 raw one-bit alt reaching DSD256, no DoP marker and no PCM decimation in the path. On both counts the brochure and the silicon agree.
