Ayre C-5xeMP Owners - remote swap? and tips


Anyone interested in swapping out an older (4 bolt on face) remote for the newer backlit multi-function remote?

I just got this player with a New from Ayre remote control (dealer replaced it) and realize I prefer the old school remote. Mike at Ayre has confirmed to me that these are backward/forward compatible (but thinks it odd I would want the older one!). I'm told this backlit remote was an upgrade option for a while. Trade would be for a pristine condition '4 bolt' remote only. I posted a listing for this also.

And...any tips on footers, pcords, hi-fi fuses for a C-5 newbee?

thx,
AJ

Mine is on Herbies Tenderfeet over a Zoethecus Z-slab that I had left over from a Zoethecus rack I used to own. I use a Hi-Fi Tuning fuse (original model) and shielded PCOCC Furutech power cord. I have the original remote. The player sounds great with the best bass I have heard from digital.
