| Should I add a DDC? Can only mirror jastralfu’s observations. I added an Iris to my Ares 12th-1, which I then replaced with the Pontus 15th; more of the same but with the uplift from upgrading to the Pontus Good luck, let us know how you get on if you decide to pul... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? I’ve never heard a Venus or the previous Pontus versions so can’t compare with my Pontus 15th, but from what I’ve seen on YT this does seem to be the case. Jay’s Iyagi review of the 15th popped on YT yesterday; he was of the same opinion. His adv... | |
| Stack Audio Auva Isolator @lollipopguild that would be great, thanks very much. I'll take you up on that 👍🍻 | |
| Stack Audio Auva Isolator @lollipopguild I haven’t yet, as I bought a new amp. They are next on my list though (the only thing on my list really). The only reason I hesitate, is because I bought the amp, and because my current footers do a good job under the ATCs on a su... | |
| A Review of the Denafrips Pontus Gen 15 DAC @cooper52 thanks for the write-up, enjoyed it. I’ve had the Pontus 15th for around 5 months, coupled with the Iris.(I originally ordered the Pontus 12th-1, I was was sent the 15th with no prior warning. This is documented in a post I made here on... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? Hi guys, It’s been almost 5 months since receiving my Pontus 15th and started this thread. Initially I was caught up in the confusion re: Denefrips/Vinshine confusion at the time, but nearly 5 months living with the Pontus, coupled with the Iris ... | |
| Upgrade from Innuos Zen Mini Mkiii to Innuos Pulse Hi @chemarcelo no I never did in the end; I wanted to try tubes (amp) and bought the Heaven11 Billie Mkii integrated and haven’t felt the urge/need to change anything else since. Lovely piece of kit by the way | |
| Denarips and Vinshine split Your original title may be quite apt Denaf"rips". I don't think anyone would deny, Alvin and Vinshine have played a significant role in making Denafrips what they are today. With Denafrips recent mishandling of the 15th versions of DACs, the lau... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? What we all thought has been officially announced by Alvin, please see below; https://youtu.be/ksjgWvRLor0?si=zGpdQFU3lbkUjCQU | |
| @member referral not working anymore I'm glad it's not just me. I tried clearing browser cache etc thinking the issue was at my end | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? Well spotted; that's really interesting, and hence why Denafrips are saying for example the Pontus 15th is on the same level as the Venus, or words to this affect. But I agree, they really need to clarify what is going on | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? I agree with everything you've said there. It's a sorry state of affairs at Denafrips right now. | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? I received an email from Denafrips Europe today, advertising the 15th versions; this is a copy & paste from the email: "The Enyo 15th matches the sound quality of the Ares 12.1, the Pontus 15th matches the Venus 12.1, and the Terminator 15th ... | |
| Denafrips Pontus *15th* ? I've still no idea what is going on with Denafrips/Vinshine; I'm not sure if there actually is a parting of ways, as down in the shipping notes on the Denafrips site, the notes reference Vinshine several times re: EU and UK VAT/Duty, so nope, no i... | |
