Jayctoy, I remember you too. Your wife was with you and we spoke briefly about being on Audiogon. Yeah the Pontus make me smile every time I fire up my system. No regrets .
DENAFRIPS DAC ---- Owner Impressions, Feedback, General Discussion, Questions and more....
Thread for OWNER IMPRESSIONS, FEEDBACK, QUESTIONS, ETC. regarding DENAFRIPS DACs.
DENAFRIPS lists the following R2R DACs:
Ares, Pontus, Venus, and Terminator (in increasing price order).
"DENAFRIPS incorporated in year 2012, focus in developing high end audio equipment at a very affordable price. Throughout the years of intense Research & Development, and continuous improvement of the product lines, DENAFRIPS had finally settled with the current product range equipped with R-2R ladder DAC technology. The reason behind this is the designer strongly believe that R-2R DAC is the best way to reproduce music.
The name, DENAFRIPS, stand for:
D-ynamic
E-xquisite
N-atural
A-ttractive
F-idelity
R-efined
I-ntoxicating
P-ure
S-ophisticated
This mean a lot and it is the house-sound of all DENAFRIPS products." [Copied From Denafrips About Us section]

@alvin1118 Alvin, Terrific response and support! Just for clarification: owners will still need to contact you (Vinshine Audio) to generate the 'RMA' or equivalent, along with the resulting shipping labels, etc., correct? I ask because many of us know Mike Powell and I imagine some may think to reach out to him directly. Thank you. |
Hello @david_ten , Thank you for your kind words. Yes, owners still need to contact us for RMA. We will be the front line to determine the type of fault, thereafter, engage Mike to make the necessary arrangement: Pick up - Fix - Return Meanwhile, an interesting review of the Terminator: here. Enjoy the music! Rgds, Alvin @ Vinshine Audio |
My system is coming together as a final whole. I'll update with another writeup (more system specific than Terminator specific) in a few weeks. One standout takeaway from my recent gear evaluations is that the Denafrips Terminator has held it's own across amplification, cabling, and power change-ups. It has scaled exceptionally well. |
