Denafrips Pontus *15th* ?

Hi guys, 

I'm confused (doesn't take a lot 🤔)

I ordered a new Pontus 12th-1 direct from Vinshine about 8/9 days ago; it was delivered this morning, but, it wasn't a Pontus 12th-1 I unboxed - it was a Pontus 15th????

I had no idea, and haven't come across, or read anything that there was a new version coming.

I've emailed Vinshine, but with the time difference, they're probably all tucked up in bed right now in Singapore; while I wait for a response, does anyone else have a clue about this "15th" version?

I'd post a picture of the front panel, but I have no idea how to upload photos on A'gon

Thanks for reading 👍

For those of you using an Iris, Hermes, or Gaia DDC, are you using those DDCs with a computer or with a streamer? I'm wondering if the benefits of using a DDC are audible when used with a streamer that inherently has less noise.

@calvinandhobbes  I’m using an Iris between my iFi Zen DAC (with iPowerX power supply) and Musician Pegasus DAC and the improvement is palpable to the point where I wouldn’t be without it.

Just ordered a Pontus 15 with a Hermes.

I have been eye balling the Laiv, but in the last two weeks there have been several popping up on the used market & I fully expect that to continue.

More to discover
