An absolute simple dream system. Very well balanced and highly resolving. At this pricepoint no weaknesses - only strength! Very very close to the state-of-the-art.
Best tubed one box player with integrated high quality pre-amp and DAC I know of. Rivals analogue playback.
Ayon Audio Crossfire PA
The latest offering from Ayon Audio. At moderate listening levels absolutely on par with the much more expensive Vulcan II mono blocks. Great match with the LW speakers.
Lumen White Artisan
Belies its compact size - a true giant killer (65kgs. each) in rooms up to 40qm. The closest thing to a straight with breathtaking realism. Easily replaced Magico Q3.
Hi. The Kondo tt is much better than the Ayon - as it should regarding the huge price difference. I use the CD-5s as a dac for my mac book pro with very good results (no need to upgrade here). The Lumens are fantastic speakers for average room sizes (I have not heard any better speakers - except of the custom made LW Aquila). Regarding cables: I use different brands like Kondo, JPS Labs or Siltech.
