Angeboten wird „TERMINATOR 15 / PLUS 15 th“ von DENAFRIPS als Neugerät aus der Kategorie „D/A Wandler“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 2139530867 endet am 02.09.2026 um 09:44 Uhr.
The Denafrips Terminator is widely regarded as the king of R2R DACs, offering flagship sonic performance at a surprisingly accessible price point. At €6,380, this asking price sits above the 75th percentile (€5,889) of your recent EUR comparable listings, making it an ambitious ask for a used unit rather than a bargain. While new pricing for the Terminator 15th and Plus models often exceeds €6,800–€11,000 depending on the variant, a used price nearly €1,000 over the median suggests the seller is targeting top-tier valuation without a clear premium justification like original-owner rarity or boxed condition.
This DAC remains a worthwhile buy for its deep soundstage, lively dynamics, and competitive performance against high-end DAXs that cost double. Its 26-bit R2R architecture and support for 32-bit/768kHz PCM make it a timeless centerpiece for serious audiophiles. If this listing includes original accessories, full warranty, or pristine condition, the extra cost might be defensible; otherwise, a buyer should negotiate toward the €5,400–€5,800 range to align with fair market value for used EUR units.
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.
