Denafrips ARES II 2020 - Black

Denafrips ARES II DAC stereo digital audio converter

Up for sale is a very nice example of the affordable (and highly acclaimed) audiophile Denafrips Ares II DAC.

I like way it brings out low level information like resonance, reverberations, subtle qualities in the vocals and instruments, which really adds a sense of "realism" and makes for great listening experience.

This unit has been well cared for in a smoke-free, pet-free dedicated audio environment and is ready to bring high-end, analog-like sound to its next home.
