Why are Ayon tube amps not mentioned very often?


Hello,
Have been in the tube world for the past few years and I am on my 3rd & best one so far, the Ayon Triton Integrated Amp.  For me it is one of, if not the best looking tube amps I've seen and it sounds fantastic running in Pure Class A!  When I read these forums and tube amps are talked about, it is a lot of the same ones that are mentioned:  PrimaLuna, Quicksilver, Line Magnetic, Acoustic Research, Cary, etc. Since I have not owned any of those, I am curious how Ayon compares?  I am thinking that for almost $10,000 retail that my Triton should compare with the best of them, but why are they not more popular and talked about?  Thanks a lot for your feedback!

I was the same tried several other brands then found a great deal on a used Ayon Orion 11... never looked back. Replaced a $15k pre power and is awesome. 
US importer is Phoenix and has been great for info and support. 

I am actually in home trialing two Ayon CD players at the moment.  I never heard the brand before but ran across them at a local dealer.  Am quite taken aback by both.  Ayon makes some great looking and performing products.  As always though it’s about the marketing.  If a company does not get the marketing and distribution right, no matter how good the products, they will remain always in the distant background
Truthfully, I feel it has something to do with their methods of distribution. A little too much exclusivity!  I believe that at the minimum, they should be represented by distributors located in at least 3 regions and cities that are accessible to audio enthusiasts, to be able to audition, in concert with a few exceptional loudspeaker products. AYON, under a different marketing name, also produces an exceptional line of loudspeakers that have almost no representation in the US.  In my opinion, AYON has developed some of the most musically sophisticated. electronics offered in the world market today. PRICEY;  - -  YES!  Yet, when compared to their competition, no more so that other electronics that actually don't offer as much true audible satisfaction for the dollar spent. Their CD players are also amazing. To the point where they have little or no competition. AYON also need to do a better job of representing their products at the big audio shows. For so many people, the audio shows nation wide, are the only place where people can get up close and personal with AYON and some other fine audio products, not readily available at dealers.
