Denafrips Ares II - Why did you sell?


Lots of people are buying this DAC but many are also selling in the used market. Surely everyone isn't "moving up" in the product line. Where did you end up?

I sold mine to buy a Pontus, then a Terminator 2 

they get progressively better as you move up the line ,the pontus just better in every area , The T-2 in a whole different league .

Indeed. Many of our customers bought the Ares II to have a taste of the DENAFRIPS sound prior to moving up to the next level up model.

 

I see an interesting trend recently - some customers bought the Terminator II/Plus after a few weeks of owning the Ares II. It means a lot to us 😃

I will be listing my Ares 2 soon. Purchased a Yggy LIM and love it’s SQ more.
