"So, who else has used NOS DAC's, and what are the observations? Interested in folks take on them (likes, dislikes, strengths, shortfalls, etc)."
Strengths: Best with small scale music. The lack of digital filtering in this case produces a "palpability" unmatched by its digital-filtered brethren.......... Since there is less "digital" switching going on than with standard DACs, provided sufficient analog filtering is provided, its RFI performance should be good too.
Weaknesses: Not the best for large scale music, heavy rock, or especially orchestral........ Complex passages tend to sound "busy", where for example, it's difficult to resolve individual instruments in the symphony orchestra.
