DENAFRIPS lists the following R2R DACs:

Ares, Pontus, Venus, and Terminator (in increasing price order).

"DENAFRIPS incorporated in year 2012, focus in developing high end audio equipment at a very affordable price. Throughout the years of intense Research & Development, and continuous improvement of the product lines, DENAFRIPS had finally settled with the current product range equipped with R-2R ladder DAC technology. The reason behind this is the designer strongly believe that R-2R DAC is the best way to reproduce music.

N-atural
A-ttractive
F-idelity
R-efined
I-ntoxicating
P-ure
S-ophisticated

This mean a lot and it is the house-sound of all DENAFRIPS products." [Copied From Denafrips About Us section]

Vihn -  I was in the room 2x on Friday. Enjoyed the presentation and great sound!  I am the guy who has a Terminator, and had not gotten a chance to get it set up at that time.  Now I have!  Wow!  Great sound!  The buzz on the web is not exaggeration!

Were you using the Danacable USB cable to connect the Terminator at the show?

@randyballard Yes we use the same Danacable TruStream USB cable on all Denafrips.  We also use the same Danacable Diamond RCA ICs on all four to ensure a fair comparison, although most would not use a $1000 interconnect on a $700 Ares DAC :-)
@Alvin1118 You're welcome.  It was great fun showing off the Denafrips.  The combination of the Denafrips with Gingko Audio ClaraVus/Triode 300B monoblocks/Wells Audio Commander preamp/DanaCable was magical.
