Other Notes: 

"The Denafrips ARES 15TH Anniversary Edition is a true balanced 24-bit R2R DAC with 6-bit DSD architecture, delivering a spacious, dynamic sound with deeper bass control and refined detail over previous Ares models. Upgraded 45.1/49.1 MHz crystal oscillators, an enhanced low-noise power supply, FIFO buffer, and FPGA-based processing work together for precise imaging, improved transient attack, and a natural, slightly warm, analog-like presentation.

Supporting DSD1024 and PCM1536 via USB, the ARES 15TH features I²S input, selectable OS/NOS modes, and a proprietary STM32-based USB solution with Thesycon driver support for Windows (driverless on Mac/Linux). Housed in a durable anodized aluminum chassis in silver or black, it stands as a top-tier R2R DAC in its class."
