Terminator Plus is the popular flagship DAC from Denafrips. I would say it has a detailed, very natural analogue with no "digital glare" and yet quite relaxed and not in your face type of sound character. This Terminator Plus had the firmware upgrade under the guidance of Vinshine Audio (old reta...
Very good condition, and at A$5,750 it’s essentially on top of the current used market: the median comparable is A$5,739, with the 25th to 75th percentile band running A$5,369 to A$5,746. That makes this a fair ask rather than a bargain, but it’s not inflated.
This is a respected ladder DAC with a strong reputation for scale, density, and a natural, non-fatiguing presentation that suits high-resolution systems well. If it’s truly clean and complete, it’s the kind of buy that makes sense for someone who wants near-endgame sound without taking on a big discount hunt. At this price, I’d just want to confirm accessories, remote, and any original packaging if possible.
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.
