Angeboten wird „Aries 1.1“ von Auralic als Gebrauchtgerät aus der Kategorie „Streaming Transport“ bei audio-markt.de - dem Online-Marktplatz für High-End. Das Inserat mit der Nummer 8854802138 endet am 26.07.2026 um 22:21 Uhr.
€1,999 is right on the median of the recent comparable set, so this reads as a fair ask, not a bargain and not stretched. With the 25th percentile at €1,100 and the 75th at €2,681, the listing sits comfortably in the normal used-market band for this streamer.
That makes it interesting if it’s a clean, well-kept unit: AURALiC’s ARIES line is well regarded for solid network playback, flexible digital output, and a generally refined, audiophile-friendly interface between your network and DAC. If the seller is original owner and includes the right power supply, remote, and packaging, the value case is stronger; at this price, a tidy example is a reasonable buy rather than a risk play.

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.
