Steveinthebeach... I've had an interest in the Denafrips Ares II. Did you purchase yours from the dealer in Singapore and if so diid the process and receipt of the shipment go smoothly? Thanks.
SACD Transport Recommendations
I am looking to upgrade my CD source equipment from a Yamaha BluRay running through a Denafrips Ares II to something that will enable me to play SACDs and get the full DSD experience. I’ve been looking at the new Marantz and Technics SACD players and I’m happy to invest the $4k CDN to get there. However, I prefer the idea of a transport with an external DAC as an upgrade path. Problem is that I haven’t come across a transport-only device that plays SACDs. Any recommendation?
