In the Auralic Forum I found the following message from Xuanqian written in December 2017: We no longer sell ARIES MINI in some countries, but the rest areas are fine. This product is still in our line and we still deliver hundreds of them each month. In some countries, the people whom are buying ARIES MINI are not the group of people we are trying to target at. For example, they do not have home network that is stable enough to stream music via WiFi and they do not want to invest a reasonable amount of money to improve their home network. I can not say all customers are like that but if more than 50% customers fall into this situation in particular area, then we will think carefully and decide if the market is actually right for us.

Hi Davide, would you know how I can open the Mini and where I get RCA jacks which fit for replacement?

yes, I swapped the cables left and right and I tried another calbe. The problem is actually the left line out. Both speakers and the amp are working properly, I checked. The dealer is not very communicative at the moment, besides the comment to send it back. I hope someone can give me a tip. But I assume it is a hardware problem and needs to be sent in.

I own an Auralic Aries Mini. After a few weeks the left line out channel stopped working. The left speaker is just hissing softly. When rebooting the mini, the left speaker cracks 2-3 times. I tested amp and spaker, it is really the Mini. Did anyone have the same problem? Does anyone have an idea how I could solve it on my own before sending it for repair? I run the Mini with an internal Samsung SSD with internal DAC via line out to amp. Many thanks for your replies.
