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.

(See statement below.) ___________ Naucks Vintage Records is the worlds premier specialist in vintage 78rpm & cylinder phonograph recordings (1890-1960), and have bought and sold internationally for 40 years. We DO NOT specialize in vintage audio. That being said, we often have the opportunity to pick up nice equipment when we purchase record collections. All such items are gently cleaned, and (assuming they appear safe) we check to see if they power up. If we have the ability to test basic functionality, we will do that as well. If a component appears to be functional, we will make a statement to that effect. However, we DO NOT guarantee that any piece of equipment is performing to spec, or that all controls and/or features are fully functional. To be honest, we have no idea what many of these features even mean, much less do we know how to properly engage and evaluate them. (We understand on/off, volume, balance & tone controls - maybe a few more. Anything beyond that is questionable!) We will also describe cosmetics, the presence of original paperwork and/or packaging and anything else that appears to be relevant. If you have questions concerning any item we offer, please contact us. We will try to answer to the best of our ability. Check, money order, credit card or Paypal accepted.

Very good condition, no scratches, marks, just perfect. One of the best players money can buy. It does come with an original remote however a spare remote control for every day use and a spare laser mechanism is included in this sale as well. Feet were upgraded to BDR cones. I would prefer personal collection but Im open to discuss other options.

Selling my beloved Ayre P-5xe Phono (here) and K-5xe MP Preamp (listed separately) to shrink down the footprint of my hi-fi. The P-5xe is one of the rare phono preamps with balanced ins and outs, and can be custom loaded depending on the needs of your cartridge. It has excellent measured performance as well and sounds great. Very very solid construction as well. Of course looks very beatiful next to the P-5xe. This example is in excellent condition, with only a minor scratch on the front fascia (which is all but invisible during normal use; I forgot it was there after a day). Here are some reviews: Analog Corner #119 London Cartridge (photo: Michael Fremer) Heres more proof that sound qualityor its factual representationis no longer on the radar screen of the mainstream press.
