"ALL DACs including NOS DACs digitally oversample - the term NOS for a DAC is a non sequitur or a delusion. In the case of NOS it is technically a first order hold oversampling filter. And this digital filter is the worst possible digital interpolation filter to use; it's got horrendous measured and transient timing recovery performance."
