Ayon S5 VS Aurender W20


Anyone on this forum did a direct comparison between the Ayon S5 and Aurender W20 network players ?
The S5 has its own DAC, the Aurender doesn't have one.
I already compared the Ayon S5 against the Lumin S1 and to my taste the Ayon S5 is the clear winner.
Wonder about the Aurender W20.

Many people who compared Lumin with Linn, prefer the Lumin.

It is not only a different dac, there are more parts they changed.

I am in this business for almost 17 years of time. At shows and demos I found Linn a very average or even poor quality product.

I did run a audio shop were Linn was sold before I came there. i did visit a few clients with Linn. One had for over 240.000 euro Linn stuff in his house.

I remember when I visit him that I became very irritated to my boss. I said: what a low quality shit, I will never sell this to my clients.
This is a great topic and thread. Thank you for starting it.

Keep opinions coming. Many of us are watching and waiting for streamers/music servers to come that are truly worth the investment.

some information about the Lumin S1.

I wonder if these 'dopes talking to dopes'  have wised up over the past 10 yrs?  Oh. such feeble attempts to share, through the art of written communication.  Forget investing in a new piece of gear and take a remedial writing class.
