Yepp, whole lotta different DACs out there, and yepp, NOS DACs aren't all the same. But the tendency is there, as they don't oversample, which has characteristic advantages and then again not.
ezkcdude: DIY? Which DAC Chip? Output stage or not? What does it do better than the ShekDac? I wish I could find something (some DAC) to rival my Ikemi! I find my ShekDac to be quite good on most recordings but really bad on "noisy" or compressed tracks which the Linn made enjoyable. It just didn't matter what disc you threw at the Linn, it was ALWAYS enjoyable. Oh, and of course the dynamic range is far reduced with the Nos DAC, but I have a feeling that's more down to the SB3.
