Ångrade mig sist men lägger ut den igen. Topptestad D/A omvandlare från Denafrips. Som helt ny med orignalkartong. Skick 10/10 Funktion 10/10 Säljes då jag sitter med både denna och en AMR DP777SE, behåller den som ej blir Nypriset på en Pontus 12th-1 med moms, importkostnad och frakt låg på straxt under 26.000 kr. Byter gärna mot ett Musical Fidelity M6s PRX
Are you getting this below-market enough to justify moving quickly? At kr 17,000, it sits just under the kr 17,517 median and well above the kr 14,226 25th percentile, so this is a fair-to-strong buy, not a bargain-bin score and not ambitious either.
That makes sense for a Denafrips DAC: the Pontus line is well regarded for dense, natural tone, solid soundstage, and a generally analog-leaning presentation that many listeners prefer over sharper delta-sigma rivals. If the unit is clean and complete, the upside is in getting a serious ladder-DAC at a sensible used price; just make sure any remote, packaging, or upgrade accessories are included, since those matter more when the price is already near market.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Denafrips emerged in 2012 from Guangzhou, China, founded by Mr. Zhao, an electronics engineer with a Bachelor’s degree and over 15 years at a major OEM manufacturer. Raised amid a family of trained engineers, Zhao launched the brand as a modest five-person venture in the Panyu district, where it has since expanded into a 15,000-square-foot facility employing 40 to 90 staff. All research, development, assembly, quality control, and most manufacturing occur in-house, embodying a commitment to self-reliance in a hub of high-end audio production.
The brand specializes in proprietary discrete R-2R digital-to-analog converters (DACs), its cornerstone products, alongside CD transports, digital-to-digital converters, preamplifiers, power amplifiers, and headphone amplifiers. This lineup, grown from four initial DACs to over a dozen, prioritizes analog-like warmth and natural timbre over sterile measurements, with the name Denafrips acronymizing values like Dynamic, Exquisite, Natural, Attractive, Fidelity, Refined, Intoxicating, Pure, and Sophisticated.
Denafrips holds a strong position in the high-end audiophile market, celebrated for innovative engineering, meticulous craftsmanship, and exceptional value that challenges pricier Western rivals. Positive reviews and owner feedback worldwide affirm its sonic prowess, backed by a three-year warranty and direct-to-consumer sales, cementing its status as a Chinese pioneer delivering refined digital purity without inflated premiums.
