"A NOS DAC is too simple, i.e. incapable of even reproducing a sine wave correctly at high frequencies, thanks to high frequency images which can beat with the signal signal and produce audible distortion. In addition, there will be roll off of the upper octave due to aperture effect."Mr Lauck, how did you form the opinion above?
The Metrum NOS(Non OverSampling) DAC has gotten rave reviews from no less than half a dozen credible reviewers. See link from 6Moons, which shows a graphic of perfect 1Khz square wave.
