That said, the Codex gives you all of those inputs and a balanced headphone amp that is very good.

I"ll ask Alex to see if he's willing to share anything on Saturday at the QX5 event at Audio Connections in NJ.

I still wish that they give a little love to the V5xe. I'm probably dreaming in technicolor but, it wouldn't take much to give the v5xe a refresh by, for example, improving its low end. I imagine that the main reason why the V5xe has not been archived and is still on sale is that Ayre doesn't yet have a new 'low end' amplifier in its stable.
