Ayon cd3 Versus AMR 777cdp

Sure, Top Audio in Westminster has it. 714-891-8944.
Good luck

i have heard ayon players in an all ayon csystem at ces. i have also heard the amr 77 at ces and a stereophile show.

i can think of several digital sources i would rather own than the ayon, including audio research ref 7, lector 7 mk 1, reimyo, zanden, audio aero capitole mk 1 and the sony playstation 1.

the ayon players do not sound like there is a tube in them.

of course, it is all subjective, hence opinion.

Hi Mrtennis, remember this posting you posted, back on 4-10?

This what you look for in a CD player!

Here is a copy of what audiogon member -mrtennis- posted back on 4-10 about CD Players!

i like a dull, veiled, laid,back, boring sound capable of putting me to sleep. i hate treble and i don't like detail. i like subtractive coloration to such an extent that all recordings sound the same. you can talk about detail, neutrality all day long.
if you don't tap your foot, it doesn't matter.

i want to relax, not bothered by detail or dynamics. veil the sound and cut off the highs. darkness and dullsville is my motto, by choice. thick caramel syrup makes me happy.

Wow! - I own the Ayon CD player and I can without any reservation tell you that it is the best sound I have ever heard and No "thick caramel syrup" is not what I look for in a cd player or any audio gear.

I have owned EMM, Audio Reserach, Ayre, reimo and I think you are wrong, the Ayon is superior. I do like the Lector CDP7T too.

Audio 852: I have to second Mrtennis. I have owned an all Ayon system (cd-1, falcon s and sunfire). the falcon s and the sunfire are outstanding components - I still use them right now. The cd-1 was the most unsatisfying cd-player I used within the last two years (and I had a lot of them). At the price point good quality but any Ayre C-5xe or EMM beats the hell out of this machine. Sorry...

Frankpiet,
With all due respect I had the Ayre 5- C-xe and in my system 3 different people preferred the Ayon other than maybe bass which was close, system dependent I guess.

Best,Bob
