The Rippingtons are my favorite as well. Try life in the Tropics.

Pretty sure the Ayon V will be the amp for me. Once the fall weather comes back around i will be doing much more listening and will get it ordered at that time, unless i find a good used one before then.

Me too. Which speakers are you going to drive with the Ayon PA? I guess i cant call my cornscala a cornscala any more because it does not have the LaScala mid horn, so my similar cornscalas i'm not sure what they need to drive them. DE85,DE120 at 8ohm and 3015lf@4 ohm. I'll have to take a look at the spirit PA.

That’s a good piece of info, thanks. Are those tubes the blue ones?

I don’t know, but I am across the country from Arizona.

Have not seen any Ayon spirit v for sale used. Might be an indication to how good it is.

I have had a similar idea. To buy a pair of Crites cabinets and use the 55g and the de10 or is it the 110? Can’t remember. I want that in your face Klipsch sound. I think you will get that with the 1” mid driver(55g). Maybe use Klipsch 33 woofers as well.

I have found nothing bad about that amp. Would be nice to have a listen before I throw that kind of money out there.

With good looks and all great reviews I am leaning toward getting the Ayon first. Being the more expense of the 2, probably should. I may not have the money next year for this kind of stuff.

I have researched many other amps amps and have narrowed it down to these two as what i would like to try. Goods reviews on both and nice looking amps as well. I will most likely end up with both amps, just need to make up my mind which one to purchase first. The price just may determine that.

I may just buy them both and do my own review.

well, ya know they have to have a good wright up on those things to get people to spend that kind of money. The personal reviews on that amp have been pretty good thou and better than the Prima Luma which is made in China. I see a few Prima Lunas for sale second hand and hardy any Ayons. Either way, over all, the reviews of both amps have been pretty good.

I have seen the spirit v for $5000 . The price is so close to the EVO 400 that it makes it hard to decide. The Ayon is made in Austria, I like that.

Yes, please do. Thanks

Has anyone here ever owned or listened to any of the Ayon amps? I'm getting my ducks in a row here and looking to purchase a new tube amp to power my Cornscala's. Currently looking at the Ayon spirit v and the Primaluna EVO 400 and the older Dialogue model. I would really like to learn more about these Ayon amps. Read something about the way they are wired is similar to SET, but with way more power.
