Offered is „Aries G2.1“ by Auralic as second-hand device from the category „Digital Streamer“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 8377026441 ends on 29.10.2026 at 17:43 o'clock.
Fair ask, but a bit on the high side of fair. At €2,500, this sits above the recent comparable median of €2,136 and also above the 75th percentile at €2,353, so it’s not a bargain; it’s an ambitious listing that needs the right buyer or a little room to negotiate.
That said, this is a well-regarded streamer/bridge in a serious digital front end, and the Aries G2.1 is known for clean clocking, stable network playback, and a generally refined, low-noise presentation. In good condition, with original accessories and a clean ownership history, it can still make sense if you want a proven piece rather than chasing a newer alternative.
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.
