Re: What's the difference between Ayre V5-X and Ayre V5

As others point out (some too pointed), Ayre is not forthcoming about their design specifics, which is OK. This market is so competetive, no one divulges details.

To restate the point, get all the upgrading available that you can.

I wasn't sure at first, but it appears that Ayre is starting down a road similar to what Audio Research pioneered years ago -- frequently and forever coming out with a change or "mod"; just enough to tweak owners into thinking they've got to keep sending their gear back and forth for upgrades, and never being satisfied with what they have. Always keeping them in flux so they never get static with their equipment. Artificially keeping the interest and sales up. This is speculation on my part. I hope I'm wrong.
