Offered is „Auralic Aries G2.1 Streaming Bridge“ by Auralic as exhibit from the category „Digital Streamer“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 2160500482 ends on 31.10.2026 at 06:11 o'clock.
The timing is fine: this is a mature streamer generation, so the real question is whether the platform still fits your system rather than whether a newer replacement has made it obsolete. At €2,300, it lands a bit above the €2,159 median but still inside the normal used spread and well below the €2,375 75th percentile, so this reads as fair to slightly firm, not expensive.
That makes it a sensible buy if the condition is genuinely good and the package is complete. The Aries G2.1 is well regarded for clean, low-jitter network playback, strong digital transport performance, and solid app/control convenience, so the value is in getting a refined streamer without paying new-product money. If it includes the original power supply, remote, and box, that strengthens the case further.
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.
