DENAFRIPS lists the following R2R DACs:

Ares, Pontus, Venus, and Terminator (in increasing price order).

"DENAFRIPS incorporated in year 2012, focus in developing high end audio equipment at a very affordable price. Throughout the years of intense Research & Development, and continuous improvement of the product lines, DENAFRIPS had finally settled with the current product range equipped with R-2R ladder DAC technology. The reason behind this is the designer strongly believe that R-2R DAC is the best way to reproduce music.

This mean a lot and it is the house-sound of all DENAFRIPS products." [Copied From Denafrips About Us section]

Hi any recommendations for a headphone amplifier to be paired with the denafrips Ares 2? So far my options are the headamp gsx mini and the audio gd master 19.

 

I love the bass on my hifiman 5se paired currently with the ruler Neve rnhp.

Reason of upgrading to so that I can upgrade my h3adphonesinfuture so was thinking of "future-proofing" the head amp, but I'm quotes set on my Ares.

 

Thanks for your time

@bent87  I encourage you to post your questions over at the head-fi.org forum.

FYI, I have the Headamp GSX Mk2  and the Hifiman HE1000 and HE560.  

All the best finding the right headphone amp for your needs.
