VX-5 release date?
Anyone know if there's a projected release date for the VX-5 yet?

From SoundStageGlobal-Doug Schneider (Jan 9th 2013)
"Ayre's North American sales manager, Alex Brinkmann, says the VX-5 will be "about $8000" when it's released later this quarter". |

I was considering a pair of the McIntosh MC601 monoblock until I spoke to John Rutan, he told me that the MC601 are great amps but, will not come close to the Ayer VX-5. He said that the VX-5 new technology will make my sound quality much much better than the MC601. Any thought on this? Thanks

Has anyone received a VX-5 yet? Any comments on it? I have one ordered, which should arrive next week. I already added it to my signature... I am pretty pumped! I will be using it with my Ref5se. I will be likely adding the matching preamp if/when it comes out.
