DAC Denafrips Pontus 2 or AUDIO GD R8 2021

EHello to all

I own since 2 months a DAC audio GD R8 2021 in replacement of a Network Player Lumin D1 and the choice towards the listening of a DAC R2R is up to my expectations.

However another actor on the DAC market not to mention Denafrips produces quality DACS and the Pontus 2 which is in the same budget as the one I own seems to have serious assets.

I didn't really find any comparison between the 2 brands in the different Forums or specialized magazines

thank you for your feedback

Sincerely

FWIW, I own a Pontus II, and am very happy with it. The reviews, both online and on forums, are almost 100% positive. The build quality is very high, and customer service generally excellent. Other than network interfacing with some computers, I can’t think of any complaints that I have seen, and those issues were apparently resolved through firmware updates.

In other words, it would probably be difficult to go wrong with a Pontus.
