You are greatly appreciated.
I did notice a little improvement over the first few hours - the DAC was cold to the touch when it arrived and it sounded better once it warmed up. I'm looking forward to see if it even gets better, but I will be perfectly happy whether it does or not. You have a great product, and I can't imagine better service even if you were here in the U.S. Best of luck and I hope that you continue to have success in the future. You may be far away from my hometown, but your attention an

It honestly blew my mind.
I recently received the Denafrips Ares II DAC. I really loved it right out of the box. It's warm, detailed, and so natural-sounding, especially compared to my TOPPING E30. It honestly blew my mind.

The piano now possesses a fantastic tonal richness!
After about three months of use with the Mclk Terra sandwiched between the Pontus DAC and the Iris DDC, I can list the main advantages of this component: The sound image is even better, especially with live recordings, and it is bigger in all three dimensions. The acoustic space of each instrument is stable and never changes in size. What I didn't expect was an improvement in timbre. The sound is smooth and the sonic texture is very fine with reproduction of every detail on t

It has certainly made a big lift in my modest systems performance.

I’m very happy with the Ares II, it sounds lovely!
My system is: Ifi Zen Stream>Ares II>Willsenton R8>Klipsch RP-600M. I also have a Fluance RT85 turntable with Rega Fono MM preamp. I’m very happy with the Ares II, it sounds lovely! I would love to upgrade to Pontus or Terminator some day!!

I am actually listening to music, not a machine
Here is my review of the PONTUS ;) Hands down the best piece of audio equipment I've ever bought, or for that matter even auditioned. (Even though I don't run in high-end audio circles... I still struggle to imagine a DAC that could outperform the Pontus.) It makes a sound so natural, smooth, and compelling, that it evokes joy on a very deep level. On all other DACs I've ever used, I've been aware of their digital-ness... that I was still listening to zeroes and ones. The Pon

The « closest approach »
Hi Alvin I wish you a very good year 2022. This is my impressions about your wonderful products The Denafrips Pontus II is major step for my research of my emotional hifi system. The dac inside the Quad DMP was very good and better than a Topping D90. But the Denafrips Pontus II is in another league with so much more depth and presence. According to Peter Walker (Quad) The « closest approach » has never been so close with Denafrips. I had many mails with Alvin Chee (Denafrip

Huge difference it is like getting a new DAC.
Dariusz added the Hermes DDC in the system, it elevates the system performance. Just like he put it: "Huge difference it is like getting a new DAC." Credit: Dariusz @ US
