The Ayon Spitfire is using similar technologies of our famous
Crossfire amplifier. It exhibits all well known Ayon magic and
qualities. This amplifier offers exceptional tonal neutrality, high
resolution and punchy-airy timbre with great musical sweetness. A quick
uncoloured and powerful bass and a spacious 3D soundstage are
self-evident for this remarkable amp. This accurate engineering,
superior aesthetic form and fantastic price value makes the Spitfire
unique on the high-powered single-ended market. Full-featured single-ended tube stereo integrated amp or pure power amplifierSE - pure Class-A triode vacuum tube-circuit designAA62B Power output tubes high peak currenthigh voltage deliveryIdeal also for more 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.

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.

High capacitance energy storage. Current in-rush limitingAuto 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 switchCentral one-point star earth groundingDual 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.

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.
