The original Denafrips ARES NOT ARES II. DAC is a highly regarded R-2R a benchmark for affordable R-2R technology. It’s known for its natural, analog-like sound and sturdy build quality. DAC is in good condition see photos. I have original box.
I own booth ARES dacs I & II if there is a different it has to be very minor as its hard to identifying which is I and which is II. In blind test I got lost and confuse.
