I have owned the terminator 2 anniversary and I had the Pontus, as well. I,prefered the sound of the Pontus. Sold the terminator. Then I purchased the May Kte and it’s in my system it was my preferred sound. I still have it with no plans to change.Only YOUR ears can tell which is better. As was mentioned there are many other things you can do to get the sound you want.
Upgrade Denafrips Terminator 2
Hi Guys,
I started my "DAC Journey" around 3 years ago. Over the time I had an Rasperry Pi 3b with integreated DAC, a Bluesound Node, then a Denafrips Pontus 2 and now a Denafrips Terminator 2.
I am pretty happy with the T2, but I am looking for the secret Gamechanger in the DAC category.
Sure, the T2 is a great DAC, but there is for todays standard better stuff out there, even for a bit less money I guess.
My next DAC should sound a bit more holographic, more revealing with that warm sound signature. I think the R2R technology is the way to go, but I am open for everything. What I probably love the most about the T2 is that Bass slam. So I am looking forward for that kind of sound.
I read a lot about the very hyped up Holo Audio May. Also other brands like Lampizator, Rockna and LAIV are a names that can not be ignored.
I am a used buyer, so everything up to 5.5k for a used price is okay for me. I just need some suggestions or experiences from you guys.
Maybe someone has an cheaper option as an secret advice from a small company.
Looking forward hearing from you.
