Who owns Ayon amps?


I see the ads here on AG all over the place for years. Most threads about Ayon were from years ago. Just curious who are buying the expensive amps? Someone must be. Not a lot of recent reviews, etc. are these thinks built in China?

When you get your gear into your house, support becomes a very valuable asset.
I have an Ayon Eris.  It is a preamp.  No complaints.  It is not as silent as two other Preamps I own - a Daniel Hertz M6 and an Emm Labs Pre2.  This is minor and the 'noise' when one puts one ear to the tweeter is vastly less than surface noise from even a finely fettled vinyl rig.  It has 6H30 tubes and they are liquid gold.  Reliability: 100% after over two years.  It was a store demo so it has been operational in excess of three years.
I have happily owned an Ayon Spirit II for almost 10 years now, and it has never given me a single problem. I purchased a newer Spirit III a few years back, thinking it would be a sonic upgrade from the II, but found I preferred the sound of the Spirit II better compared to the III. I sold the III a few months later, and am still enjoying the Spirit II. It has direct RCA inputs, so it can be used with an external pre-amp if you have a good one. It looks as good as it sounds too!
How would someone characterize the Ayon amp "house sound"? Neutral, warm, etc? I'm sure the tubes that one is using play a large role
