Angeboten wird „Aries Femto mit Booster Netzteil“ von Auralic als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Digital Streamer“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 7200985520 endet am 01.09.2026 um 10:59 Uhr.
Compared with the obvious alternative at this price point—waiting for a cleaner bargain or paying up for a more expensive streamer—€450 looks fair and slightly under the €446 median of the recent EUR comps, so it is right in the normal buying zone rather than an outlier deal or an ambitious ask. It is also comfortably above the €343 25th percentile, so this is not a steal, but it is priced sensibly for a well-kept unit.
That makes sense because this line is widely respected for its solid digital transport performance and clean, low-jitter network playback, which can be a meaningful step up if you want a dedicated streamer feeding a good DAC. In good condition, it is the kind of purchase that appeals to a listener who values a refined, stable front end; if the original box, PSU, and remote are included, the value improves further, and at this price there is no need to be overly cautious unless an accessory is missing.
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.
