Offered is „SPITFIRE“ by Ayon Audio as new device from the category „Fully integrated Amplifier“ on audio-markt.de - the online market place for high-end. The advert with the number 5361618506 ends on 30.10.2026 at 08:04 o'clock.
The Ayon Spitfire is a revered pure Class-A tube integrated known for its lush, single-ended sound, but this listing’s €8,750 asking price is ambitious compared to the typical used market. Based on four recent EUR comparable listings, the median used price sits at €5,604, with the 75th percentile at €6,398; this ask exceeds that upper bound by over €2,300, making it significantly above fair value for a used unit. Even the mint, boxed example listed at €5,400 firm underscores that €8,750 is stretched unless the condition is truly new-in-box with full original packaging and accessories.
That price would only be justified if the unit is genuinely new or near-mint with original owner provenance and all original accessories, which the listing doesn’t explicitly confirm. The Spitfire delivers 30W per channel in pure Class-A with a silky frequency response from 8Hz to 35kHz, making it a standout for small to medium rooms with efficient speakers. At a fairer €5,500–€6,000 range, it’s a compelling buy; at €8,750, it’s a tough sell unless the seller can prove it’s effectively new and includes the original packing and documentation.
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.
