Thread for OWNER IMPRESSIONS, FEEDBACK, QUESTIONS, ETC. regarding DENAFRIPS DACs.

DENAFRIPS lists the following R2R DACs:

Ares, Pontus, Venus, and Terminator (in increasing price order).

"DENAFRIPS incorporated in year 2012, focus in developing high end audio equipment at a very affordable price. Throughout the years of intense Research & Development, and continuous improvement of the product lines, DENAFRIPS had finally settled with the current product range equipped with R-2R ladder DAC technology. The reason behind this is the designer strongly believe that R-2R DAC is the best way to reproduce music.

The name, DENAFRIPS, stand for:

D-ynamic
E-xquisite
N-atural
A-ttractive
F-idelity
R-efined
I-ntoxicating
P-ure
S-ophisticated

This mean a lot and it is the house-sound of all DENAFRIPS products." [Copied From Denafrips About Us section]

Review | Denafrips Terminator Plus DAC and Gaia D to D Converter

By: gmgraves / Audiophile Style

"Overall the T+ is a world class DAC. Alone, it produces a liveness and a palpable realism that just a few short years ago would have seemed impossible at any price. I don’t really know how to describe the refinement of that amazing performance made possible by the addition of the Gaia D-to-D. But all I can say is that whatever magic the T+ is bringing to the table with it’s incredible performance, the Gaia takes that magic and turns it into sorcery!"
Is the I2S of the Pontus II compatible with the I2S of the Project CD Box RS2 T?
@jackiejr   I'd check with Alvin at Vinshine to be absolutely sure. @alvin1118   

I remember my Terminator's I2S input being configurable. I do not know if the Pontus II is or is not; AND whether the configuration can be setup to be compatible with your Project CDT.

Perhaps Pontus II owners will also post on this. 

All the best. - David.
Is the I2S of the Pontus II compatible with the I2S of the Project CD Box RS2 T?

DENAFRIPS i2s is not compatible with the Project CD Box RS2 T.

According to Project tech support, i2s (over HDMI) requires 16.9344mhz external clock input @ Pin11/12.
