Don't know how the 5AC's compare to the M5's as we are replacing 2.4 AP's, but we are getting a pretty solid 90 to 100 Mbps through the 5AC links using a 20 Mhz channel width. We are using beta firmware, the 8.xx series, and have not had any problems with that as well since the early releases. All in all we are very pleased.
One caveat to be aware of, the 5AC's require -10dB more Rx signal for full modulation then the M5's, so same gain swaps will not get you the full benefit of the new protocol. We are installing a lot of PBE-5AC-620's, anything over a mile and a half, where you could get by with a 400 M5 radio. Need to factor that into your cost calculation.
