A couple of things I did with my Aries G2 that made it even better:
- Sablon Audio 2020 ethernet cable (I also added a PhoenixNET switch but the cable along made a difference).
- Hoer-Wege power supply upgrade - easy to fit and easily reversed.
I'd probably go for the cable before the power supply upgrade - it's surprising how much difference it makes.
Auralic are excellent at providing regular updates to their app and firmware.
Regarding the 'issue' if you sell it and 'releasing' it - I can't think why you would want to sell it but when I sold my previous Aries Mini I just did the required bit in my online account and it was done. I'm not sure what the fuss is about - it was a two-second job.
Auralic have a well-deserved reputation and I have been more than happy with my Aries G2. Enjoy!
