Denafrips Ares Price Jump


I've been looking at the Denafrips Ares for a few months. I noticed about a week ago that the price jumped about $250. Wondering if this is a new updated V2 model or just import economics.  Thanks

It’s now the Ares II, I have one, and even for a little more $$, its still a steal of a bang for the buck value. 

  • Digital Signal Processing via FPGA instead of CPLD

  • DSD1024, PCM1536 Supports On USB Input

  • Proprietary USB Audio Solution via STM32F446 Advanced AMR Based MCU

  • Licensed Thesycon USB Driver For Windows Platform

  • Driver-less On Mac & Linux

  • Sampling Mode: NOS / OS

  • Filter Selection: Slow / Sharp


Also price shows in Singapore dollars, so depending on the rate that should be around $759 which is not a 250 increase as you stated... it’s ~$100 more
Thanks. How is it different than version 1 ? I notice the case in the ad doesn’t say v2
