That is a nice photo.  Never heard of Ayon before.  Let me Google it.

@Mayzei thanks for the compliment!
 
@DjAmTrax thanks too! Ayon is from Austria and strictly makes all tube gear....this is the Triton ii amp with Shuguang Black Treasures Grade A KT 88 tubes. I moved from a Class D amp to this.... Never looked back.
 
Nice Mcintosh gear btw!


Not only a beautiful amp but a beautiful sounding one as well.  I have been to a few RMAF and Legacy Audio shared a room with them and it really made their speakers sound fantastic.  Of course, I own Legacy Audio Focus SE so I could be a little bias.

Since we are talking about Ayon, here is a bad shot of my setup.

My new cd player Leema acoustics Stream II. It's a beautiful sounding ''analog" cd player with 16 x DAC's Crystal CS454, transport Philips VAM assembly, low distorsion and very low jitter.

A secondary (bedroom) system
FLAC files (54,000 tracks / 2.5 TB) => Squeezebox III => Audio-GD Compass as a DAC/preamp => Mr. Liang 845 single-ended triode amplifier => Red Rose Music Classic Ribbon speakers  or sometimes DIY SEAS 5" 2-way Excel monitors with crossovers designed for me by Selah Audio (fancy caps in the xover, etc)

Another secondary system ("Library/Guest Room")
 
FLAC files (54,000 tracks / 2.5 TB) => Squeezebox III =>Audio-GD NFB-10ES as DAC/preamp => Forte 4a power amp with Soderburg mods / or switch-selectable / Harman-Kardon Citation II with full Jim McShane mods => Quad ESL-57's restored with Wayne Picquet panels, HT units and Zener Clamp boards
 
This is a small room, hard to photograph - this shot is taken looking in through the doorway
 
Small CRT tv is used to display the menu from a Sony SACD / DVD player I sometimes use; you can't switch from CD layer to SACD layer without navigating a menu that only appears on a connected TV (who at Sony thought THAT was a good idea?!?!)
 


In this shot the back legs are up on books to tilt the speakers slightly; I have since made little wooden blocks with a slanted hole to fit the Quad's back leg to do this job instead of books.
