I quite interested in this. I like the theory of NOS Dacs but I’ve yet to hear one that doesn’t sound like a rather noisy valve amp in soft clipping mode.
On a side note, I read the 6 off world review and I have to ask, does anyone have a feckin clue about what the guy is on about? Really, way to write a few paragraphs of totally meaningless bollocks
Oh, Dave got there first.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, and wiser people so full of doubts.
