VX-8
The Ayre Acoustics VX-8 stereo power amplifier represents thirty years of research, development, refinement and passion in one beautiful chassis. It captures the essence of where we have come from, to where we are headed, and is sure to bring pure joy to your listening experience every time you use it.
Built on the foundations of our completely zero-feedback, fully-balanced, and discrete circuit designs; the VX-8 will deliver that familiar Ayre Acoustics sound featuring tube-like warmth and musicality with solid state immediacy and control.
The VX-8 will provide plenty of power and control to most speakers, and the input impedance allows a wide variety of preamplifiers to sound their best when connected to the VX-8; making it easy to integrate in nearly any combination of system components.
