LisasonictowerI would say R-2R is going to reappear, question is what form,, I think that a ‘balanced’ or dual in the same matching box still is the best bet. NASA could be cited for ripping off the Neanderthal’s ladder invention, used to climb down to the surface of the Moon from the LM... before thinking of confronting drop & Airist for their R-2R that is based on an expired USN patent, now in the “public domain”... same as DSD;)... serendipities do happen, the two together, R-2R & DSD 5.6,, well,, divine...

rastusI’m unsure if you’re suggesting I’m confronting Drop and Airist? I’m all for R2R and patiently waiting for a matching one but as for this specific Airist one I still say I doubt it.

LisasonictowerNo, just pro-actively saying that the drop/airist bit about ripping off a ripped off a rip off from so many other rip offs is just a bit offensive, since the technology was put into the public domain by the US government itself and the alleged rip-off was from a fellow thief touting freeware, in China lol, if that logic is followed. You, willing to get a nice affordable R-2R @ state-your-price-cash,, obviously get it. Hopefully they do bring it back, in an even better config. R-2R was one of those rare actual gifts from above,, sorry meant the govt;)
rastusOk no problem, it is out of scope and context of what was asked and what was answered but you do you. Warrior on!

Lisasonictowerohh no sorry to hear, what do you have now? i have a Drop Grace Balanced arriving sometime in this century (i think).... but im restless and thinking of getting a Topping E30 in the mean time. alright whats your PayPal acct? jk
Ross369Lol....I have the Grace SDAC balanced now, I had both DAC’s at the same time until the RDAC died a premature death. The Grace is perfectly good but the Airist just gave me something extra I was looking for musically and emotionally.

Ross369It is too expensive for me in the UK without warranty and I’ve had one before so it is your turn to try one out.

Ross369R-2R, It’s like an infection causing an addiction, but a good one;) example: “Connected it up. Used it for an hour. ABSOLUTELY SENSATIONAL, blows AK/ES SABRE delta sugma dacs away. I've already ordered the next model up and plan to buy the Terminator as soon as possible. Video of actual unit here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B5prd0JXrkYQmohnZsNpfYTx-45aQpZY/view?usp=drivesdk And here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1B3bGKOyeUgL-2aSiDfVFLg0WLhbZQR6w/view?usp=drivesdk Check the umpteen reviews. The Audiophilliac, Darko, Stereophile etc etc. The hype is real. The closest thing to a high end 'analogue DAC' I've ever heard, sounds über natural, incredibly detailed but never becomes fatiguing or etched like most Delta Sigma chips do. An absolute joy.” https://www.ebay.com/itm/Denafrips-Ares-II-R2R-Ladder-DAC-BRAND-NEW-SO-GOOD-I-BOUGHT-NEXT-MODEL-UP/224085607617?hash=item342c8b04c1:g:AkEAAOSwqShe4~Ls
