Let me know what you hear in the way of feedback as the 20 and 25 were both great units in their day and the Ayon seems to be following in their footsteps...

Big upgrade over the CD2, which was an excellent unit itself. In limited reviews, the CD5 is crushing almost anything it's tossed up against.
