Which good discrete R2R multibit DAC & why NOS ?


In another thread concerning upsampling and upconversion in servers, mention was made by georgehifi :
¨Should just have a good listen to Redbook 16/44 PCM converted through a "good" discrete R2R Multibit nos dac.¨
Which would these be and why NOS ? Are there no R2R multibit DACs being made today ?
My Reimyo CDP777 although quite old has the K2 conversion and being one-box and top-loading made sense  to me at the time of purchase.
Most importantly, would adding an external R2R bring a noticible improvement or just be sidestepping ?

Thanks in advance

I use this seller's AD1865 DAC and I really like it. I would like to know what the PCM63 DAC sounds like. 

The link below is for a PCM56P-K DAC that I'm also considering just for the sake of trying something different.
