Default Any experience with Ayon Audio preamps?

I really enjoy my Pass labs electronics (XP27 phono, XP22 preamp, XA60.8 amps) but lately, I've been curious about trying a tube preamplifier in the $10,000 - $15,000 range (new or used). I need a balanced design with a remote. I'm looking to keep the transparency, dynamics, and detail of the Pass preamp but add some tube liquidity, 3D, and warmth.

The Ayon Auris II was recently suggested to me by someone who also sells Pass labs. But I can't find any professional reviews or measurements other than brief show reports. Does anyone here have experience with Ayon preamps?

Other tube preamps on my list include VAC Signature SE or maybe Zesto Leto II.

Thanks,

Dave
