The most important thing with a NOS DAC is to feed it a really low jitter digital signal. Most Transports will not do.
Also, if the output is direct from a stack of 1543's through a signal coupling capacitor or the like, then driving a high-capacitance cable is potentially problematic. If you want the best performance from it, use low-cap cable and drive high-impedance (50K ohms+) input.
