I suspect cost is the main reason you don't read much about Ayon..Primaluna is just such an easy amp to own for less $ it seems to be the jumping off point for new tube amp owners..
I was recently shopping for a new tube integrated & looked at/read up on over 50 new tube integrated amps..I have owned Cayin amps twice & HIGHLY recommend them,made in the same factory as the PL stuff & a superb value for $ spent..The Unison Research is awesome & would last you a lifetime..There is a Mastersound "Box"listed on usaudiomart.com for $2k that is an AMAZING DEAL at the price for a Brand New,ALL ITALIAN made rig..
I ended up ordering an Icon Audio "Stereo 30SE" which is pure Class A SINGLE ENDED(1 pair output tubes)KT150 integrated putting out a massive 28wpc.Pentode mode & 20wpc.in Triode mode..
