Good to see you here again. Yes, the Ayre AX-5 Twenty, still tops my list.
I will procure this integrated amp very soon.  Hope that you will return to a pair of Thiel Audio loudspeakers sooner rather than later.

Happy Listening!

Jafant Ayre AX-5 Twenty is a great match for your 2.4SE, very musical and refined integrated.Hope you can put this system together very soon.

I second thieliste - Ayre matches quite well with Thiel.  My local dealer always paired his Thiel 3.7s with an all-Ayre setup and it sounded fantastic.  I too have many Ayre components in my system, including a recent change from my Cary SLP-05 to the Ayre KX5 twenty preamp.  My 3.7s have never sounded better.  

Been awhile since I opened this thread. Looks like I have a lot to catch up on!

Musical - is the key word that defines Ayre gear. And this is not a bad thing at all. Stay safe out there.

Happy Listening!

Good to see you again. Yes, it has been awhile since I have seen a post by you.  Impressive that you switched away from the Cary SLP-05. That particular pre-amp is one of the very best, very popular amongst Audiophiles.  While I have never heard the SLP05, I can certainly understand your change to the Ayre Twenty Series- seriously good gear.
What other gear including rounds out your system currently?

Hope that you are well and preparing for Summer.

Happy Listening!
