For me, the new Aries S1 is one of Auralic's best-ever products – and that's really saying something. It unlocks a world of seriously high-quality streaming at a relatively affordable price and does so with the élan you would expect from this brand. For those already with a DAC that they know and love, it's a no-brainer. Operationally smooth, beautifully built and very well engineered, if you're looking for a serious streamer, then it's hard to think of a reason not to audition one.
