Mark Levinson 326s vs Ayre K5xeMP


Does anyone have experience comparing Mark Levinson 326s vs Ayre preamps like Ayre K-5xeMP or KX5 Twenty ? Have the Ayre K-5xeMP and possibly looking to upgrade, have Levinson 532h amp and thinking their 326s may be synergistic together. 
Thanks

I compared the K-5xe to the 326 and chose the Levinson.  I have heard the MP and it was better than the standard xe - I have not heard the Twenty variant but knowing Ayre it will be a noticeable improvement.

With all that said, I would not trade my 326 for one and considering you already have a 532h I think the synergy is certainly something to consider.  Try them all out if you have the opportunity.
