    Denafrips 'Pontus' R2R ladder DAC - close up view

    I think that there is too much bass due to the copper plugs. I thought if it is more loud than pontus ii (non-12th) I could bring that back. I asked vinshine about it but they said it would be challenging. I may look for a used one.

    HI. Has anyone replaced the AC socket with the same AC socket as pontus ii (non 12th)? I own a 12th-1 and am having trouble getting used to the bass feel, etc. I am thinking that the AC socket is the one that could be affected by the changes in the 12th. (I love the Aresii without the changes)...

    The old Ares ii was in, FW, probably to be used with OG (1.0). I am sure the soundstage and resolution scores will be lower than P2. But in my environment and with my ears, Ares ii was a great match. Magic. In audio someone asks for "better" and "more". They are usually right, because it is...

    After upgrading from Enyo to Pontus, i sold Enyo and added IRIS after 3 months of hesitation. Then today I returned to Ares ii. I found an older unit (older than v3.12) and it was an impulse buy. The Pontus (fw1.4) + IRIS gave a wide soundstage with detailed sound and instrument separation...

    Are you connecting the usb to pontus? If you're connected to iris, you'll see 1.6. non 3.121 1.6 yes! 3.12 | 1.6 And the pontus is followed by a 'p'. ex. v3.12 | p22f1.0

    In my meze109, both the wide sound field that exits at 1.4 and the long listening time at 1.0 are excellent. I plan to try the tentatively named 1.5 when it is officially released, but for the time being, I'll enjoy struggling between 1.0 and 1.4.

    Everyone wrote in detail. If you recently purchased it, I think it is ver 1.4. The control panel will have F1.4 at the end of the display.( ˘ω˘) . 。o(

    Some time has passed since I added IRIS to my desk, and I have gathered my impressions. ・The iris is slightly clearer, increases the distance between instruments slightly, and gives a slightly wider soundstage. ・The i2s cable, interconnect cables, and power cables make a small difference in the...

    New denafrips DDC (Iris and Gaia)

    I also let the IRIS I received run for 24 hours before connecting it. It is almost 100 hours and I feel it works well for PC audio. The cable that came with it is 18 AWG and I plan to replace it with a 14 AWG cable.

    New denafrips DDC (Iris and Gaia)

    IRIS was added to my desk today, happy. The DAC took a while to break in, will IRIS change with break in? Anyone have experience with how many hours it takes to change?
