Ayon Spirit-1 compared to Ayon Orion


I am helping a friend select between an Ayon Spirit-1 and an Orion and have a few questions with which I hope someone on this forum can help:

1. Does the Orion operate in Class-A like the Spirit? The Ayon website lists Class-A spec for the Spirit but not the Orion, but I didn't know if that was just an error on the website.

2. Are some of the parts in the Orion sourced from China?

Thanks for any help.

I wanted to thank everyone for their responses to this thread. The guy I was helping with this decision ended up getting a Spirit-III to pair with some Quad-57 speakers. Another friend has a Spirit-1 that he paired with Silverline SR17.5 speakers in which we installed a Duelund crossover. Also, on the Spirit-1 rig, he is using Gold Lion KT-88's and Telefunken ribbed plate 12AU7s. Both systems sound quite nice!

Thanks again, everyone, for your responses!
