The Crossfire III continues the evolution of the Crossfire II amplifier
by once again offering dramatic improvements to its completely revised
third-generation power supply, tube regulator and new gain stage
technology. The gain stages have been optimized to provide for the
shortest signal path and the most direct signal flow. Furthermore a new
revolutionary MCU based volume control system with analog resistor
switches has been installed. The Crossfire III is our most powerful
SE-triode integrated amplifier featuring single-ended triode circuitry
with our exceptional Ayon 62B power tube. Zero dB feedback, pure class-A
operation for the most natural fast and authentic 3D holographic sound.
Its uncompromising design with rich and varied interplay of macro- and
micro lines of dynamic performance. The ambiance of the original event
is reproduced with uncanny precision as space illuminated by music. The
Crossfire III is a magic masterpiece of simplicity and function which is
pleasing to the eye and pleasant to the touch.

difficult loudspeaker loadsVacuum TubesThe 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. Today only few manufacturers
still produce tubes for pure audio amplification; one of them is Ayon
Audio with its outstanding single-ended triode power tubes (AA32B-S,
AA52B-S and AA62B) based on the WE 300B. Signal PathWe believe that the simplest circuits work best together with the
shortest signal path. That is why our SE-Triode amplifiers to date have
used single-ended pure class A circuitry. 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Tube and electronic protection circuit system0dB negative feedback(of any kind )DHT 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External static bias adjustmentNo followers or buffers in the signal pathHigh quality parts throughoutSelector switch engages relays located near RCA jacks to switch all inputsPower SupplySingle ended amps are more susceptible to power supply aberrations
than push-pull amplifiers. 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 stage which makes this a pure power source and it
is a critical attribute for a single-ended amplifier. 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 forAyon AA62BDual choke for pre and driver stageTube regulated power supply (5U4G)Separate and isolated power supplies over each stage of amplification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 minuteDual Grounding SystemThe 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 TransformerThe super-wide bandwidth output transformers 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 (made by ayon)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 materialComponentsThe type of parts used therefore must have a synergistic relationship
