I think everyone should have two good DACs in their setup these days so that one can double check (A-B) for problems - not every issue is obvious to most listeners so it is good to be able to check against a baseline.

Denafrips maybe have a second thought.
I ordered an ares and received shipment about a week to ten days ago. Initially it would not turn on. Then I saw lights and eventually sound. Not sure what was going on but it was a prelude to what happened next. I liked the sound very musical but when using the first coax input I kept getting this weird volume problem. when a track would start it would cut almost completely off then go back to the original volume. So I needed to send it back which I am doing but it is expensive because there is no USA support at all. I almost bought the Pontus but glad I didn't since it would have cost even more to ship it back.
I am not saying never buy one or bashing denafrips just know if something goes wrong shipping back is exorbitant
