AYON ORTHOS 11 XS tube amplifiers in mint condition.  Award winning amplifiers.   I am the original owner & purchased these momo block amplifiers from USA TUBE AUDIO in Scottsdale, AZ. aproximatley1.5 years ago.  I visually inspected both amps, but could not locate any noticeable cosmetic defects.  However, my eyesight is not the best, so I will air on the conservative side & tell you to expect some minor hairline scratches.  Sonically, both amplifiers perform flawlessly & sound absolutely wonderful.  I will ship the amplifier's in their original boxes & packaging materials.  Included will be the AC power cable, owners manual & all original tubes.  Please note, I can send these amps via FEDEX or I can professionally package, band, shrink-wrap the two boxes to a pallet & ship them via LTL. NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING SHIPPING ONLY IN THE CONTINENTAL USA; EXCLUDED HI, AK PAYMENT:  PAYPAL OR STRIPE IF PAYING BY PAYPAL OR STRIPE, PLEASE INCLUDE AN ADDITIONAL 3% TO COVER FEE'S Please note, if you do not have adequate Audiogon history with solid positive feedback, I will only accept payment via Paypal sent to friends & family.  Or I will accept a wire transfer in full.
Features

Full-featured true balanced vacuum tube mono power amplifier Switchable between pentode and triode mode Ideal also for more difficult loudspeaker loads.


Vacuum Tubes

The choice of signal and power tubes have a significant influence on the sound and hence on the inspiration and joy of listening. This is not only the decision between good and bad tubes but finally the interaction of the different types of tubes and their combination that are used in the various Ayon amplifiers.


Signal Path

We believe that the simplest circuits work best together with the shortest signal path. The shorter the signal path is, the less possibility of sonic degradation from various sources, including the wire itself. Even on the circuit boards, the copper traces are kept to a very minimum length. The completely redesigned circuit board provides a more straightforward and direct approach to the signal paths.

●  Logical sequenced soft-start power up for extended tube life
●  Power tube and electronic protection circuit system
●  0dB negative feedback  (of any kind )
●  Ultra short signal path
●  Simplest direct circuit path for purest musical sound and high reliability
●  No solid state devices in the signal path
●  High current and low impedance design that operates tubes in the best areas their curves
●  Minimal discrete wiring for optimum signal propagation
●  No followers or buffers in the signal path
●  High quality parts throughout

Power Supply

The power supplies have been further refined with new components and enhanced AC line noise filtration. Separate power transformers, chokes and filters provide total isolation between the input and output stages which makes this a pure power source. We also use electrolytic capacitors with much larger storage capacity to make up for the loss in filtering when using resistors in lieu of inductors.

●  2 separate low noise –insulated power transformers
●  Power transformers are encased, excellent damped and RFI/EMI shielded
●  Innovative power supply provides a high speed energy delivery on transients
●  Dual choke filtered power supply for power tubes
●  Choke for pre and driver stage
●  Separate and isolated power supplies over each stage of amplification
●  Separate high current filament-regulators for pre and driver tubes
●  Regulated DC filament supplies with soft start
●  AC power line filter to avoid noise and hash from entering into the unit.
●  High capacitance energy storage.
●  Current in-rush limiting
●  Auto sequencing – Power on cycle completes in 1 minute

Dual Grounding System

The modification of the grounding topology leads to increased rejection of noise from the power supply and other areas. The dual grounding topology used in all of our amplifiers is quite unique to the whole hi-end tube amplification industry. Such extensive topology provides for quieter backdrop for which the music can unfold in its entirety. It further establishes the quick and controlled bass response and the full bodied expression of the high frequency. The ground leg of the signal has not been neglected and given meticulous attention in its implementation. The importance of proper grounding cannot be over emphasized.

●  Ground switch
●  Central one-point star earth grounding
●  Dual grounding system (switchable)

Output Transformer

The super-wide bandwidth output transformer’s major strength is that it can deliver the current in the bass, while at the same time maintaining the speed in the high frequencies, dramatically improving the square wave response of the amplifier. The effect is a much more natural and relaxed sound with much better clarity, resolution and fluidity.

●  Super-wide bandwidth high performance output transformer
●  High efficiency with low insertion loss for optimal current and voltage transfer
●  Multiple tight layering and coupling for extended frequency response
●  Output transformers are sealed with an anti-resonance compound material

Components

The type of parts used therefore must have a synergistic relationship to the circuit they are placed in. It is this relationship of which type of part to use where, that ranks our products apart from the mass.

●  Selected, premium quality passive components used in all applications
●  High speed  & high quality audiophile grade coupling capacitors
●  Special tube sockets with beryllium – copper spring pins, custom made by Ayon
●  WBT NextGen – binding posts
●  High quality – RCA input jack
●  Neutrik/Swiss – XLR chassis connectors
●  Special isolated – internal wiring
●  Silver-cupper matrix – internal signal cable
●  Gold-plated industrial grade PCB

Mechanical Construction

The high grade aluminum chassis impart a richer, more lustrous tonality with a cleaner background and less hash and grain. All brushed anodized anti-vibration-resonance and non-magnetic chassis’s are fully hand assembled to insure the highest level of craftsmanship.

●  Improved heat ventilation chassis
●  The aluminium feet are resonance absorbing types
●  Backlit “ayon” logo
●  All front & rear panel descriptions are engraved
●  Ground switch
●  Bias analog-instrument with mV scale
●  Chassis finish: black / chrome

Questions for the seller
will you sell to me? i don't have time and i will buy another
Sure I will sell to you. The terms are as follows: $12,500.00 + Freight to be calculated at a later point. Because you have no history, the money will have to be sent via Paypal (friends & family only). I will not accept any returns. Let me know if you would like to proceed.
my son knows how to pay and my son has an account paypal. we need to solve the price and all other issues
Price is $12,500.00 + $500.00 for freight. So, you will need Paypal me $13,000.00 and when I receive the funds in full I will release the shipment. You will need to send the money via Paypal to me via "friends & family" only. Let me know if you wish to proceed.
