Ayon Audio Forum- all questions and suggestion

I had been talking to Charlie at Ayon about buying the AMR. I bought my Triton from him. I just found a really good deal on it while in Hong Kong, about 1/2 price. It was an authorized dealer so no problems with service. Reliability has been fine so far, no problems that require a return. It does need rebooted every once in awhile but I don't worry much about it.

@ Doc77,,Hi, I do not blame you one bit on saving money over there in Hong Kong!, As we well know, their is a 500% mark-up eany way!,, I asked about the reliability because some of the Ayon, AmR, etc.. I read here on the threads had problems, mostly the cheaper componets,, so far the Ayon 2s has not needed rebooted or any thing else, my problem is I really do not like the sound of the 6h30 tubes, I like the sound of the american type tubes better,, Do you know much about modwright modification company?, It would be nice to rid my self of the russian tubes without buying another player, I would have to rework the circuitry I am sure to be able to use different tubes than the 6h30 tubes!,If that is possible,LOL!,, cheers!

I own a Triton II, as well as the AMR DP-777. I have known 3 other people that have the 777 and two others that have had a Triton. No issues here or with them...and passing on two years...
Fabulous combo... but the itch is getting me to go SET for a while, so I am going to start fresh...

Calvinj - I did not lose anything in male and female voices. They (and everything else) became more natural and vinyl-like to my ears. That said my second choice after the 1980 NOS Reflectors has been the EH 6H30pi gold pins which I prefer over the stock Ayon tubes.

@ Gammajo, Hi, which tube sounded thicker on the voices to you?,fuller!???, and, which tube do you believe sounds better?, Thanks, cheers!
