No, the 2s will not be on death row,I seen on Ayons web site, the 5s uses the BB pcm 1796, as my vincent player did, the old ayon 5 used bb1704 dac as does the 2s.
They didn't change the PCM1704 building block of the CD5S from the CD5.

where did you get that information?

Here's a pic of the PCM1704

The 1796 is used in the CD07 IIRC

Here's a review from the Ayon website which also states the CD5S uses the PCM1704
You are correct, I thought I made correction already,A couple of sentences ago, how many dacs the 5s have? and the 2s, they both use pcm 1704?was your experience with the 5s a huge up-grade over 2s,or moderate?Is the sound similar between the 2 players?
