Angeboten wird „Aries G 2.1“ von Auralic als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Streaming Transport“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 5743019744 endet am 22.08.2026 um 10:00 Uhr.
The Aries G2.1 is a well-regarded streamer in AURALiC’s lineup, and at €1,999 this one lands below the median of recent comps at €2,134 and just under the lower-middle part of the market. It’s not a screaming bargain versus the €1,939 25th percentile, but it is a fair-to-good buy for a clean example.
What makes it worthwhile is the combo of serious network-streaming performance and a platform that still has real appeal for digital-first systems: solid feature set, strong sound quality, and enough flexibility to anchor a high-end setup without jumping to current-new pricing. If the listing is genuinely good condition and includes the usual accessories, this is the kind of purchase that makes sense for someone who wants the product more than the chase for the absolute bottom price.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
AURALiC was founded in 2009 by Xuanqian Wang and operated as a Hong Kong-based digital-audio specialist. The company built its reputation around the philosophy that high-fidelity audio should be accessible to serious listeners rather than confined to ultra-luxury markets. Though headquartered in Asia, AURALiC maintained a global distribution network and cultivated a dedicated following among audiophiles worldwide.
The brand specialized in digital streaming components and high-resolution audio sources, with their product lineup centered on network streamers such as the Altair, Aries, and Vega models, alongside digital-to-analog converters and integrated streaming solutions. AURALiC positioned itself in the premium mid-to-high-end segment, offering feature-rich, sonically accomplished products that combined innovative technology with thoughtful industrial design. Their ecosystem approach—pairing hardware with mobile control applications—appealed to listeners seeking convenience without compromising sound quality.
AURALiC ceased operations in September 2025 following an 80% sales collapse in that year. The company's decline resulted from converging pressures: US tariff barriers that suspended American sales, intensifying competition from budget streaming alternatives, economic contraction in China, and mounting software-development costs. Founder Wang's departure in January 2025 preceded the company's final dissolution, leaving owners of its premium products without ongoing support or software updates—a cautionary reminder of the vulnerabilities facing even well-regarded independent audio brands.
