Oddiofyl....I can see how readers are seeing your post as kind of coming off somewhat racist,IMO.Your one step from wearing a MAGA hat.For you to say all Chinese made gear is garbage is foolish at best..Just stop it. There are tons of Denafrips owners on this site that really like or love their units.The Holo DACs are very nice,the spring 3 level 3 for the money being one of them.Very tough finding a used one and even the May is hard to find on the secondary market.The new Pontus at its price point is great,and if one buys on the used market forgetaboutit,Ive owned all three...The resale on all of them is fantastic so id say that overrides your assessment of Chinese gear is garbage!
Denafrips 12 anniversary
I have heard Denafrips new 12 th anniversary Terminator+
it is $1000 more ,and just slightly better a bit warmer and slightly more refined in detail , then the previous + another guy in are multi state audio club the The terminator 12 anniversary and compared to the T2/ and price only $300 more this is a far better deal the 12+ anniversary now $7500 Waay overpriced it is 98% thesame as the regular terminator2 ,12 anniversary .
you can buy the HoloSprings May KTE for under $6k
the Terminator2-12 anniversary is by far the best bargain out there and being under $5k. A Best Buy , I would have bought the + dac if it just went up $3-400 like it’s sibling ,a bit greedy ,and the Steve huff review ,almost a carbon copy of the previous + dac review it’s your $$ just our viewpoint from a value ,performance perspective.
