Differences between G1 and G2 products:
1. Shell: It is no longer a whole piece of aluminum cutting, G1 uses an assembled aluminum alloy case
2. Appearance: The buttons and knobs become silver, and several cutting lines are added for decoration
3. Foot spikes: ordinary foot spikes are used instead of the g2 spring suspension system
4. Cancel the Llink interface: most users do not use this interface
5. G1 cannot have a built-in hard disk: this is basically not used, it is more convenient and quick to input directly through the USB port, and it supports large-capacity hard disks.
Similarities between G1 and G2 products:
For example, support DSD512, PCM 32/384,Color screen,
Aries G1 G2 dual linear power supply
Vega G1 G2''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s 72 femtosecond clock and customized dac chip and so on.
The function is also completely the same, Vega G1 also has a built-in digital broadcast(Can only read music from dlna servers such as minimserver on the network), Roon, spotifyconect and so on.
The appearance design of the G1 series is derived from the G2. The 3.97-inch wide-view and high-resolution retina color screen provides a better user experience. Through the silver processing of the buttons/knobs and the stripe design of the fuselage, the overall design is more dynamic. The aluminum body and stable four-leg support provide good shielding and shock absorption. At the same time, the G1 series provides the same intelligent infrared receiver function as the G2 series, which can realize the remote control of any infrared remote control within 5 minutes of learning. Of course, the complete RoonReady is still provided for you.

ARIES G1 inherits the powerful computing core of ARIES G2: PCM 32 384 / DSD 512 playback capability, built-in dual femtosecond clock, complete digital output of AES / coaxial / optical / USB, wired Gigabit network / WiFi 5G networking function, Airplay / Soptify Connect/Internet radio/Bluetooth/Tidal/Qobuz/Songcast and other multiple playback platforms support, complete LightningServer and third-party DLNA server software support perfect matching NAS/PC/Mac OS storage music use, and provide external USB storage device file playback Function to provide you with a complete digital network playback experience. The size of AIRES G1 chassis is 340 x 320 x 80 mm. Compared with the original compact and streamlined ARIES, the total volume is increased by 2.5 times. It has better electromagnetic shielding performance and heat dissipation performance. The appearance of ARIES G1 is quite different. The wide-view and high-resolution retina color screen embedded on the front panel can display the playing track and progress in real time, which is not only convenient for customers to use, but also can browse and listen to the content and progress. ARIES G1 uses a dual-line power supply independent power supply design, so that the audio signal quality can reach a whole new level.

Excellent hardware is only half the battle. How to use software and firmware to continuously optimize and tap the potential of hardware, enrich device functions, and enhance user experience is more important in the information age. AURALiC has always insisted on the development and maintenance of its product firmware and software to continuously meet the needs of users. The G1 series also supports fully automatic online firmware upgrades. In controlling the APP, on the one hand, it still provides the excellent iOS platform control software Lightning DS, on the other hand, it also provides third-party Openhome control software support, such as Bubble DS(Original Bubble upnp).
Evaluation:
ARIES G2 streaming media player continues ARIES’s many award-winning advanced functions and unique technical achievements, and adopts a more reliable communication connection method. At the same time, the design pays more attention to the isolation and shielding of external interference and noise. ARIES G2 is not a simple upgrade of ARIES, but a comprehensive surpassing of ARIES; it is a more powerful streaming media player with a large number of cutting-edge technology and patent innovations. Whether it is used alone or in combination with other G2 series products, it can meet the requirements of the most discerning music lovers.
The chassis size of ARIES G2 is the same as that of VEGA G2, both are 34 x 32 x 8 cm. Compared with the original compact and streamlined ARIES, ARIES G2''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''s overall machine is actually increased by nearly 2.5 times, and the appearance changes are different. Obviously, the widened display screen can also show the album cover and timeline while playing the track, which not only adds beauty, but also facilitates browsing and listening content and progress.
On the back of the ARIES G2 body, the input terminal provides wireless WiFi, Ethernet interface, and USB. Among them, the wireless WiFi is upgraded from dual-band to three-band, which improves the network transmission speed; and the output terminal is USB, AES/EBU, optical fiber And coaxial adds electrical isolation technology, and also adds Lightning Link interface, which can be connected and used with AURALiC products.
The ARIES launched in 2014 has the ability to support DSD256 wireless transmission, and the new ARIES G2 has also been upgraded to support DSD512 at the highest. Since there is no internal DAC, when connected to the user’s computer, NAS, etc. via a wired or wireless network Storage devices, or connecting to online music services such as Tidal, Internet radio, etc., need to transfer music files to the DAC. Of course, it is a perfect combination if it can be used with VEGA G2 DAC. The figure on the left below is the comparison table of ARIES and ARIES G2 specifications. Both memory and internal storage space are doubled, and computing power is increased by 50%, up to 37,500 MIPS, processing music files more smoothly; the original independent linear power supply is included The inside of the case is built-in, and the case is made of aluminum alloy processing EMI electromagnetic shielding material; the lower right picture lists the new technologies and features of ARIES G2, which is equipped with dual femtosecond clocks for digital and USB output.
AURALiC products always allow us to witness the rapid development of technology. Every time a new product is introduced, a new benchmark and level is once again achieved. The streaming services and functions provided are becoming more and more complete. The more easily users can experience high-resolution music. The most important thing for the enjoyment of file listening is that, thanks to the transmission function of Lightning Link, once the AURALiC G2 series products are connected in series, they can get complementary effects. This is also the goal of this new product release, strengthening the relationship between each product. Connectivity and commonality of, create the best quality of one plus one greater than two.
