When I was first introduced to the Ayre DX5, I was pretty much an Oppo and McIntosh fan and had been for years...I was familiar with Ayre and their reputation and knew through trade shows and friends who were dealers, that they were as passionate and committed as any A/V company in business.Anyone who engineers and builds a $10,000 transport, generally knows what theyre doing and they always do it in their own way... Ayre continues to stay away from the fringe and push the envelope of whats possible in design and execution.This example of the remarkable DX-5 is certainly the best weve ever seen come up for sale (there may have been others, Ive just not seen them) It belonged to a dear friend and client and I was involved in the setup, so I can attest to the way its been used and the fact that it has never moved since I set it up. It is perfect in every way, right down to the original remote and manual as well as the original box and packing materials.If youre not familiar with this company or with this specific model, please do yourself a favor and spend some time on-line with the reviews. youre not likely going to find a better example anywhere in this condition and with so few hours on it. As always, it will be boxed, shipped and insured FREE to the lower 48 states and International shipping is available through ebays reliable GPS (Global Shipping Program) at an additional charge. Thanks for stopping by; I hope this finds you well and please dont hesitate to reach out with any questions or concerns about the DX-5.Best regards,JimJim Gray Designsjimgraydesigns.com

This remarkable example of the Ayre K-5xe MP preamplifier is one of the very best sounding preamps we have ever heard...That includes some pretty company like Mark-Levinson, McIntosh, Classe and Krell; all of which we have spent considerable time with over our 40+ years in business. I set this K-5 up for a dear friend here in Tallahassee in 2014 and it has never moved from that spot.It was paired with the Ayre DX-5 Universal A/V Engine, Innersound Kaya Reference Speakers and matching Amplifiers and the Adept Response Line Conditioner (all for sale on other auctions...see owners other items) If youre in the market for an extraordinary 2-Channel Reference Preamplifier, you could far worse than the Ayre K-5xe~If youre not familiar with Ayre or this model in particular, please take some time to research the reviews and reputation of this company.They are among the most dedicated and committed A/V companies in the world and this is the best example Ive seen for sale... Its condition is near perfect and it likely has less than a few hundred hours on it. As always, it will be boxed, shipped and insured FREE to the lower 48 states and International shipping is available through eBaysreliable GPS (Global Shipping Program) at an additional charge. Thanks for stopping by: I hope this finds you well~Please dont hesitate to reach out to me with any questions or concerns about this piece.Best regards,JimJim Gray Designsjimgraydesigns.comsince 1979

Please see the pictures. The audio performance is outstanding: transparent, detailed and dynamic as all of the glowing reviews say. Like Tim Shea from Soundstage!Hi-Fi is writing, Ayre C-5xeMP is able of providing the “…subtle dynamic shadings, tonal completeness, and a level of involvement with both performers and performance that make it an intoxicating and captivating device to listen to”. To make listening even more exciting, Ayre provides the user with the option of switching between the digital filters “as the mood and music strike you”, writes Tim Shea. One of the filters is Ayre’s latest MP (minimum phase) filter which produces, according to Ayre, greater accuracy in time domain and is labeled “Listen”. The other filter is Craven’s apodizing filter which produces greater accuracy in the frequency domain and is labeled “Measure”. A selector switch is located on the rear panel of the player. For more detailed instructions, please see the Ayre C-5xeMP Owner’s Manual. Specs: Plays: CD, SACD, DVD-A Analog outputs: 1 pair unbalanced (RCA), 1 pair balanced (XLR).

Ayre power cord. I am the original owner of C-5xeMP. Have bought it in 2019. The unit has very light usage in smoke and pet free environment. For the last three plus years the player was sitting in closet due to the small size of our apartment. Priced to sell. Price includes PayPal fee. Will ship by FedEx insured and charge the actual shipping. Unfortunately, I was able to put into add just two pics of C-5xeMP because my camera has some problems. Will add more pics next few days.
