Auralic- gone for good?

Hard to say for sure. But I owned a Auralic Aries G2 and got rid of it... for numerous issues with the device a support. I can’t think of another company from which I bought and high end component with that many issues. Long termed, that will do in a company. 

Well, glad I didn’t sell my Oppo 205 when they decided to close in 2018.  Still running great for all these years. Anyone notices what these guys sell for on the used market? 

Meaning, it too good of a product just to disappear.  Give it time, Steal one if you can!

I also have a few Oppo 205 units, they are the rare audio gear that actually increased in value. That's because Oppo was such a standout company with their designs. Also because nobody else really stepped in to fill that niche. Oppo was pretty unique and left a void, compared to the streaming space where we already have at least half a dozen big players. With Aurender, Lumin, Innuos, Eversolo, HifiRose, and more that I'm forgetting, it seems unlikely Aurender will go up in value.
