...btw may I know how you'd describe the bass performance of the Denafrips DAC when used with a Decware?
Not Donnie and I have a Terminator, not an Ares, but I can say that my experience and that of many other online friends is that the bass is "honest" rather than "awesome." You can see my system in my sig and the bass in my smallish is room is plenty for e.g. Pink Floyd The Wall or Bach organ music. But I'm not a "bass head" and don't listen to electronic music or sound tracks with a lot of really low bass or sub bass.
For me, no way would I trade all the stuff the Denafrips DAC does well for more bass but of course that is JMO/YMMV and all that. I don't know what your digital setup is like but one option that works for a lot of other people is using digital EQ to tweak the sound to your liking. That might be something to investigate if you aren't getting enough bass without adding a sub.
