Maybe someone should post the differences and why it’s worth it. Mike make sense to someone than if you can’t afford it don’t buy it. I know I’ll step up if I can understand what I’m getting, if I feel it’s enough for the difference.
Auralic Vega 1 vs Auralic Vega 2/2.1
Was looking out for a network streamer and read rave reviews about Auralic products. Then I noticed that the Auralic Flagship streamer DAC comes in three versions. Going from Vega G1 to Vega G2 the price increases by $2600(Vega G1 retails at $3999 vs the Vega G2 at $6599) . When I read about the differences, I do not know that I can justify spending that kinda money on a better volume pot and a unified chassis. I have a feeling Auralic has priced themselves out with the Vega G2 and Vega G2.1. I know some audiophiles will possibly say, they don't care, but for regular 9 to 5 working class folks $2600 is a lot of money(still). Is it just corporate greed or did Auralic just price themselves out?
