Apparently. Here's an example of a recent thread arguing for NOS from a few of the posters as well as some more technical types chiming in... http://www.computeraudiophile.com/f6-dac-digital-analog-conversion/should-i-nos-dac-14869/ Just one of those things that remain "unsettled" in audiophilia. I've always been curious about the AGE of some of the die-hard adherents of the NOS design and what their hearing frequency response is. I'm sure my dad would not be able to differentiate the sound of a NOS from one with flat response for example... Like DSD vs. PCM, is there some special *quality* present without the digital filter in place that's desirable? I'm not sure... I'll need to spend more time with this mode doing A-B tests but so far, it's really not all *that* different in my listening (other than a small amount of high-frequency loss). ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archimago's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2207 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=98749 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
