Well? How good are they? They seem a tad expensive. Are there any R2r ladder DAC's other than this brand worthy of concideration? It seeems that Denafrips have a monopoly.

A hole in the ground you get water from.
I guess it all depends if you like it, or not.
You are paying for a solid metal case and a very nice transformer. Had mine about two years and not had any problems.
I only have the Ares 11 but don't think an upgrade to the next level is worth the doubling in price. This is based on reviews and comments I have read.
Would you say that the Denafrips sound is more analogue sounding as reported?Quote:

I think so, its certainly has all the qualities that we all look for. I find the sound analogue with a wide soundstage, instruments sound real to me. Denafrips have released firmware updates that can improve SQ but I haven't installed the latest as its a bugger to do.Quote:
