I have been involved with two installs, They are working great, they have dual
inputs and the broadest MPPT range of any inverter I have seen. I have had no
failure problems, and I have a friend that has experience with several and he
reports no problems.
They are ungrounded so you have to use PV wire exposed. Your array disconnect
has to open both DC lines per input, which means a four pole disconnect if you
have two parallel strings. (it takes a long time to get the 4 pole
disconnects
from square D, rarely stocked)

Subject: [RE-wrenches] Power One Aurora Inverters
Hi all. Does anyone have any experience with the Power One Aurora
grid-tied inverters? Any comments on the failure rate for inverters
manufactured in the last year or two?
Thanks.
