PSAudio Directstream DAC M-1 (refurb) vs Denafrips Venus II. Quick decision needed!


I received a used Denafrips Venus II from TMR yesterday and now PSAudiio is offering refurb Directstream DAC MK-1's for $1800!  What do I do? I paid $2400 for the Denafrips and I just want whichever is superior.....people are saying the MK-1 is  a steal, so it won't be available long. Thanks for any input!!

Never heard the Denafrips. However had ordered the MK1 from TMR and last weekend compared it to the internal DAC of the Hegel 590 and also a Weiss 202. Both the MK1 and the 202 could not hold a candle to the Hegel. Suffice to say the MK1 is on its way back to TMR and the Weiss back to the friend from whom it was borrowed.
