Received my Denafrips Venus 15th


It has been burning in for a week. I am very happy with my purchase. The bass is much more present and detailed than my previous Venus ii. The vocals are also improved. They have a much more 3D sound and are sitting out in space.

Yes dual cables for clock out of the Venus to the Arce. 
 

Unfortunately I am in Canada so I think it is still cheaper to buy direct. 
 

V fi.....I owned the Pontus II and had the Venus II in my room back to back...To me in my system the Pontus was too dark in its presentation ,Decent sound stage but the Venus II was superior in every way,,Well worth the money to move up in my opinion.I have not heard the new Venus 15th version but have one on order to try..

I too went from Pontus II to Venus II...I upgraded my Eversolo A8 to HiFi Rose 130 transport also. Each step did show wider sound stage, airiness,  more detail, while not being harsh.

One thing I noticed was my I2s doesn't work correctly when I added HiFiRose 130(did work fine when I had Eversolo A8). I now use higher end Transparent Audio digital coaxial cable and works fine but would rather use I2s. Does anyone have advice on how to set the I2s settings in the Venus II?. I know how to do it on Hifi Rose 130.

Also, so going from Venus II to 15th very much worth it or would going up to the Terminator 15th be better choice?

 

missioncoonery, I agree for me the the Pontus II seemed too dark, rolled off at the top, abit too warm and smaller soundstage.
