Description
1x Auralic ARIES MINI streamer/ DAC up for grabs as pictured -the best VFM product that Auralic ever produced IMHO. Includes NZ power supply and a 2TB Samsung SSD installed, which has been wiped and all existing user settings deleted -so (for the new owner) it'll be just like setting up a brand new unit via the fantastic Lightning DS app that Auralic provides for free for Apple iOS (sorry -no Microsoft business here).
The Samsung 870 QVO 2TB SSD itself is only 6 months old (purchased locally from PB Tech) so still has 2.5 years of NZ warranty left -I believe the replacement value of the drive alone is NZD$240+, and the Aries Mini itself retailed for a mere USD$549 before the company discontinued it... just check out the prices on the current generation of Auralic streamers and DACs to see what a steal this Aries Mini is...!
Reviews in the links to follow in comments section -this little guy really punches above his weight :)
No offers available -the price is a bargain, and IMHO -very, very fair. Bid to own, or somebody else will.

A quick Google search brought up this thread from Pink Fish Media discussing the benefits (or otherwise) of adding an LPS to the Aries Mini -link below. Good reading.
