The timing matters because this is a current-gen, top-tier disc player/DAC rather than an orphaned old transport, and that keeps it relevant even as physical media cools off. At A$14,500, it sits above the known new-price anchors around A$10,900 to roughly A$17,800, so on used value this reads as ambitious unless the exact configuration, dealer support, and extras justify a premium.
What makes it worth considering is the usual Ayon appeal: rich tube drive, serious DAC architecture, balanced outputs, and genuine all-in-one convenience for someone still invested in CD/SACD playback. A like-new unit with box and remote is the right sort of listing for a buyer who wants a statement player without cosmetic compromise, but I’d want to confirm the tube count, included accessories, and whether there’s any transferable local support before paying this sort of money.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Ayon Audio traces its roots to Austria, where it emerged four decades ago as VAIC before evolving into Ayon Audio in 2001 under the leadership of founder Gerhard Hirt. This transition marked a pivotal shift toward innovative vacuum tube audio design, building on Hirt's enduring ownership of the VAIC trademark and his passion for sonic purity.
The brand specializes in a comprehensive lineup of vacuum tube components, including power amplifiers, preamplifiers, headphone amplifiers, CD players, DACs, and streamers. Ayon's signature "Voicing"—its proprietary DNA—infuses every product with a distinctive soundstage renowned for depth, realism, and emotional engagement, setting new benchmarks in pure Class A circuit topologies.
Positioned firmly in the high-end market, Ayon commands global respect with distributors in over 55 countries and a trophy cabinet brimming from "Best Sound" and "Cost No Object" accolades at major audio shows. Austrian-engineered and award-winning, it appeals to discerning audiophiles seeking boutique excellence in tube amplification, far beyond mid-tier compromises.
