Denafrips Ares 2 Review - Not really NOS, but lovely!
Thomas Karen Lopez Ruth Wilson Brian
I love T n' A. 😂😂😂😂
Please, Like you I like the Atrium best. So for Iem I like Traillii. Considering this should I go with the P6, A&K SP3000, or A&K SP 3000T? TIA

I think this DACs, DSD DAC, they do better with acoustic music, like folk, Jazz and classical, you mainly review with electronic music, which is where they don't particularly shine. Regarding the high, price, I totally agree.
Wild that two companies with the acronym of DCS is independently threatening reviewers.
I’m pretty sure threatening a frivolous lawsuit only to silence and economically harm an individual is a form of extortion and is actually a federal crime.
Really good review. The observations are spot on and the recommendations make a lot of sense.
read the update it was a rogue employee who was fired
Can you please do a review on the audio analog AAdac if possible 🙏 thank you
I've lived my whole life without dCS. I can live the rest of my liife without them too. I read the apology. What a load of horse shit. Asshole calling the shots can't reach out himself until shit hits the fan. And no matter how he tries to word it, they tried to intimidate people with lawyers. They got rid of one person, but it certainly sounds like this was more than one person.
How ironic, there is another company that goes by DCS (Deep Cycle Systems) suing a RUclipsr for a negative, but factual, review of one of their batteries. Louis Rossman did a video covering it.
No dcs for me.
I think that this is for someone not using a steamer. Instead of using a Hermes at a $1k us, I would have used the Iris at $499 US. You can find them under $400 US. It will only do USB to I2S and does a great job of doing it. For the other digital connections, I have an external 10m clock that works wonders with my DAC.
Is it anyway comparable with Sony wm1zm2 or ibasso DX 320 max ti?
Just read the apology, they have done the right thing, good communication and correction.
No doubt a USA Company... only place on Earth where they think money holds complete power over everything and everyone.
Is not same company DCS battery have another law suit agains RUclipsr?
Gonzalez Timothy Miller John Williams Michelle
So dCS excuse is a common "sorry we have a rogue employee". Well, idk, I heard that one too many times for me to be skeptical of such excuses. And the guy's VP of marketing for pete's sake, he's pretty much up there in the core ranks of the company, not some *random* employee. If the leadership is bad, it's more likely to be permeated down to the company's culture. So yeah, their apology and excuse don't really fly in my ears. Or even if that's the truth, the implications is far worse if such action were deemed normal by the leadership at the time. How many others got sued before someone actually fought back? Is this how dCS does business all these time? etc.
You should give the lawsuit itself a review, (I assume) a negative review.
... an excellent, excellent review by a pro!

Why do companies like this try to destroy themselves. It would have been better to invite you to visit and work through each and every complaint to see if improvements could be made, surely much more positive!
Garcia Amy Miller Melissa Walker Daniel
DCS are also sewing another RUclipsr, Stephan Fisher of Alloffroad 4x4 Adventures TV and he is fighting them. Because of this, they have brought on themselves huge negative publicity. Mr Fisher has received huge support from the wider community and other content creators...
Please can you recommend a pairing between the Jewel, Traillii or other IEM. Like you I like the Atrium best of all my headphones and paired with an R2R and tube. TIA
You listen to some incredible music, can i get a playlist?
Corporations are not citizens.
Using the ambiguous term of misinformation as a weapon.
Cant you go from single ended to xlr with just a cable?, I know from xlr to rca no, but it shuld be ok from rca to xlr, and qutest does have variable output voltage
+ one for the esthetics, I mean I love it much better than those horible technical black boxes with kind of airplaine cockpit leds
What do you thini about Feliks Audio in same price category? Or Anybody.,
there are actually people on youtube who think you were giving a review for a dCS battery... ha ha
"I'm not your mummy or your therapist" And I'm not your test kitchen for passive aggressive comments! Oi, good on you keeping your cool. I would have gone off on them.
What camera are you using?
Great review. If I may kindly ask you to avoid using the Lord's name in vain. Out of respect.
“Better than lossless” You keep using that word. I don’t think it means what you think it means.
Bartol is THE BEST dac/amp I ever hard in my life, and I did many, many..... Never tried it via external system, though, but only with headphones such are HD 800s and Focal Utopia.
Not that I could afford a dCS device.. but would never buy one after this even if it was ever in my budget
wow, dcs is up in sh** creek now, aliating every customer that is
I do not often see videos which are pure and utter nonsense. But this one is. The spdif and the usb interfaces have error detection integrated. They will not deliver an invalid data stream to the DAC. Noise on a data line can cause problems but usually you recognize that by drops in the audio presentation or by connectivity rejection (no sound - full stop) and not by noise on the analogue side. Since the cable length and quality is good these days, you usually have however not problems or drops.
The equivalent of making bad decisions your whole life and then suing your kindergarten teacher for it who did nothing wrong.

Will never buy a product from DCS
i was wondering, how did you get that music visualizer looks really cool
I spended my money upgrade to a good Steamer Aurender N200 first to get a better source with Holo audio Spring 3 KTE . Big improvement ..may be later will upgrade my Dac
