The Venus II presents a very lifelike musical, might I say, analog sound in my system. The imaging and the sound-stage of the Venus II change as I change the filters. The Oversampling Mode Slow Filter seems to produce the best combination in my system. Both were spot on and very lifelike.

The real reason to buy this DAC is the price/sound quality ratio
"This is the third Denafrips DAC I review. That’s driven by the remarkably good ‘price to sound quality’ ratio. This time even absurdly high sampling rates are supported, next to a lot of inputs. But the real reason to buy this DAC is the price/sound quality ratio."

The most anticipated review, ever!
"...Denafrips has my highest respect for all four DACs in their respective price categories but my favorite two DACs are the Pontus and the Terminator Plus. The former already scratches the surface of the true high-end and the latter is so good that it makes life difficult even for DACs that cost considerably more.
All four Denafrips are great performers but especially the Pontus II and the Terminator Plus are highly recommended!"
