DENAFRIPS ARES 12th Anniversary DAC -- Better Than Ever!
It has been a while since Steve Guttenberg @ The Audiophiliac review a Digital To Analog Converter, DAC. We are flattered and honored that one of the first DACs that Steve choosen to review was the DENAFRIPS Ares 12th Annv. Ed. DAC!
"One of The Best R-2R DACs under $1000, Upgraded"
To commemorate DENAFRIPS’s 12 years of digital audio excellence, the Ares 12th Anniversary Edition features the most frequently requested - I²S input, redesigned front panel, as well as performance enhancements.

11:23 So Steve, what do you really think?
"I feel much of the same way as I did in 2019 when I hear the original Ares. I just felt connected to the music in ways that I don't always with other brands of DACs. I mean, they do different things but it's that engagement factor that DENAFRIPS does so well."
"It makes me wa to listen to the next album and the next album; and the next song and the next song. That's what I get from DENAFRIPS DACs."
"The Ares, Ares 12th, Terminator, they are high engagement design."

Heavy coastal rain on the Gold Coast forced me to cancel my weekend outdoor plans and stay inside with a laptop. While reading an article on responsive frontend design, the writer cited Crown Melbourne Online to illustrate proper screen space utilization and fast asset loading. I opened the site myself, and the immediate responsiveness across all categories was very impressive. The uncluttered dashboard allowed for a completely uninterrupted gaming session. Lightweight coding clearly pays off for long-term usability. It makes spending a rainy afternoon at home feel truly relaxing.
