Anything from the Alibaba site is NOT an official Vinshine product. There are many knock off products out in the wild, wild, East. Lots of mass production where excess is sold off to unscrupulous competitors. Buyer beware.

Vinshine/Alibaba..What to buy and where?
Is it wise to pay the extra money for a Denafrips ares 2 from Vinshine in Singapore vs getting it cheaper through Alibaba site? Don't want to pay more than I have to, but don't want to get ripped off or receive counterfeit cloned merchandise, etc.
Once I figure out where to buy, what's the best bang for the buck of the Denafrips ares 2, Ares2 12th edition, used chord qutest, RME ADI -2, etc.
I'm looking for a more musical style dac than ultra clinical revealing sound, and budget is in the $1,000 dollar range unless I can get 90% of that sound for $300 from Geshelli labs. Thoughts???
