The Ayre Acoustics VX-R Twenty is a high-power, two-channel stereo power amplifier and an anniversary-generation development of Ayre’s VX-R. It uses a fully balanced, discrete, zero-negative-feedback dual-mono design with independent left- and right-channel power transformers, Ayre’s EquiLock gain-stage circuitry, Double Diamond output circuitry, and an AyreLock linear power supply. The amplifier provides 200 watts per channel into 8 ohms and 400 watts per channel into 4 ohms, with balanced XLR inputs and a solid aluminum monocoque chassis. Ayre’s official product page identifies this model as the VX-R Twenty finale, while distributor documentation states that the VX-R Twenty is production-complete.
