AYON CD10 MK2 Ultimate
This model features additional options from the Signature model: PCM-DSD converter for all PCM signals(DAC, USB and Streamer)
6H30 Tube-output-stage, 1% component selection in the signal path range, Top-quality coupling capacitors and parts;
Ayon is pleased to introduce the CD-10II, a new redesign of our already highly regarded CD-10 and CD-1sx model offering.
The Ayon CD10MK2 is in many respects a groundbreaking CD DAC Player design, with advanced technology such as the single-ended triode 2x 6N6P tube output stage.
A new and advanced DAC design, magnetic CD clamp system and a switchable PCM-DSD true converter. This Player presents a new level of musical performance with stunning vitality, clarity, natural warmth, a fast, tight bass, warm fluid mids and superb highs that do not roll off. In addition, the CD-10II is handcrafted to perfection. In this price range, the CD-10II is most innovative and musically, as close as you can get to the holy grail in recorded music. The best CD player ever built-in CD’s 35-year history.
Full-featured Pure Class A Triode Vacuum Tube – Top Loader CD Player
Pure Class A triode vacuum-tube output stage for single-ended & balanced operation, 2 x 6N6P tubes in the output stage.
Signal Path
We believe that the simplest circuits work best together with the shortest signal path. That is why our pre-amplifiers to date have used single-ended pure class-A circuitry. The shorter the signal path, the less possibility of sonic degradation from various sources, including the wire itself. Even on the circuit boards, the copper traces are kept to a very minimum length. The completely redesigned circuit board provides a more straightforward and direct approach to the signal paths.
-Logical sequenced soft-start power up for extended tube life
-Warm-up function
-0dB negative feedback (of any kind )
-Ultra short signal path
-Simplest direct circuit path for purest musical sound and high reliability
-Low output impedance for driving long runs to interconnect to an amplifier, and any tube or solid-state power amp
-No solid state devices in the analog tube output (signal path )
-Minimal discrete wiring for optimum signal propagation
-No followers or buffers in the signal path
-No DC servo that degrades the signal
-High-quality parts throughout
-Fully hand assembled to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship
-Separate analog output stage for left and right channel
-Digital input – S/PDIF (RCA), & TosLink
-USB input – 24/384 kHz and DSD 64x/128x
-Digital output – S/PDIF (RCA)
-Full function remote control
Power Supply
The power supplies have been further refined with new components and enhanced AC line noise filtration. Separate power transformer windings and filters provide total isolation between the input and output stage, making this a pure power source that is a critical attribute for a 6H30 vacuum tube output stage. We also use electrolytic capacitors with a much larger storage capacity to make up for the loss in filtering when using resistors instead of inductors.
-R-Core / Low noise – insulated power transformer for digital & analog
-Innovative power supply provides a high-speed energy delivery on transients
-Separate and isolated power supplies over each stage of amplification
-AC power line filter to avoid noise and hash from entering into the unit.
-Tube rectification for the analog output stage
-10 separate voltage regulators
Components
-Selected, premium quality passive components used in all applications
-High speed & high-quality audiophile-grade coupling capacitors
-High-quality special tube sockets with gold pins
-Capacitors ( MKP 2% )

Mechanical Construction
The high-grade aluminum chassis imparts a richer, more lustrous tonality with a cleaner background and less hash and grain. All brushed anodized anti-vibration-resonance and non-magnetic chassis are fully hand assembled to ensure the highest level of craftsmanship.
-Backlit function buttons
-Modified suspension system to isolate the CD transport from mechanical vibrations
-Anti-vibration magnetic CD-clamp system with dark acrylic CD-LID
-The aluminum feet are resonance absorbing types
-Metal remote commander
-Chassis finish: black / chrome
