The Denafrips Hades Preamp is a fully discrete, true balanced, class A line stage. It uses advanced microprocessor controlled relay based 60 stepped attenuator. The precision matched through hole resistor yielded perfect channel balance, delivering ultra low distortion, low noise, neutral sound reproduction.
The Ares DAC is a 24Bit/1536KHz, native DSD1024, discrete resistor ladder Digital To Analog Converter, also known as R-2R DAC.
The architecture uses the most primitive R-2R DAC technology, it is probably the most suitable architecture to reproduce music. Despite the test results of various measurements and parameters of the conventional R-2R DAC are usually not as good as the mainstream integrated DAC chip, but the sound of R-2R DAC, is often filled with emotion, comfort, high fidelity, transparency, and additive musicality that most of the common mainstream integrated DAC chip cannot match.
