The Aries Cerat Kassandra 2 Limited Edition DAC has finally arrived into my audio den. It’s sourced by my Aurender W20. My first impression is that this (really) massive DAC is that it is able to retrieve so much more details that I never thought available. It’s like I am listening to the same track/music for the second time around. The human voice or vocal has so much more layers of texture. The mid range dynamism and energy reminded me of my favorite analogue. The low is extremely articulate and fast. This DAC is not the usual top end DACs that are available in the market. To me, they sound “digital” and/or “more digital”. That is not what I look for in any audio component. The DAC, being a part of the source component must be able to retrieve the most information and sound “right” (to me, analogue). That, the Kassandra 2 LE has impressed me! This DAC change my perception on what is possible at digital conversion….
