Ayre QX-5 Twenty

Forget about the Ayre. I owned the QX-5 twenty for some years. I liked it.

I decided to sell it and I purchased a MOJO audio DAC.

The MOJO blew the Ayre away. No comparison. The increase in SQ

was astounding.Check out Mojoaudio.com.You will see the multitude of awards.

that Mojo's products have garnered. Give Ben a call. He offers a 30 day audition trial. There's a demo Mystique SE on sale for $5999.

bander - "blew it away" huh?  On that advice, I'm gonna purchase a unit from MojoAudio??....who is this company.  2 men and a dog, in a garage??  A little bit of nepotism going on here?

jymc sorry you're having a bad day. You clearly don't know know about what you speak..

^^ That is one of the weirdest post I’ve ever seen on this site. But looks like lots of bad days in their posting history. Mojo Audio is a fine and known brand around here for many years. Lots of oddness in that one post, even for here. 

Another vote for Ayre.  I have QX 5 and AX 5.  Competes with anything out there at any price.  Great support from the company and US made.  Internal Ethernet streaming is excellent.  I also have a separate streamer, not sure it's needed.
