3e Audio TPA3251 TPA3255 Finished Amplifier with PFFB is coming!
This is Windows and Mac only (via USB) Digiface support was added to linux in kernel 6.12. Android might catch up in a release or two, but there's still every chance manufacturers won't include the driver for such an unusual device.

New stock expected by the end of this month.
Not paying 400.00 us for delivery to usa from France, 3e has to change the delivery to DHL or UPS otherwise will be a problem.

Nobody is safe. I ordered a phone case from Bandwerk in Germany, it shipped via UPS from Germany, and it reached Philadelphia yesterday. Today, I was forced to pay $27 to clear customs due to duties. Thanks to his imperial elected majesty Emperor Trump, whom I voted against.

Wow. How much was the purchase price of the case, if I may ask?
$116.00 before discount. 10% coupon, but then $4.90 shipping cost, plus $6.11 tax, so final total cost of order was $109.30 before duties, so I'm thinking I paid a 25% duties cost to UPS to release my package from hostage status.

Still cannot really follow your math, especially based on your screenshot. If you select "United States" as your country on the Audiophonics website, the VAT is set to 0%. You won't be double taxed.
Prices on AliExpress have been heavily discounted from about 2 days after release for a couple of weks. Don't expect this to be regular pricing when new stock arrives.
If you think that the amps are not worth the regular price thatza different subject. Personally I think they are.
Amazon would be nice but no less expensive. Doesn't look like this is going to happen.
Where are you located?
I used my address here in New Jersey and I see 232.50 EUR before shipping, with a shipping cost via UPS of 29.50 EUR, for a total cost of 262.00 EUR.
Of course I have no idea if I would get hit with a surprise duty charge by UPS like I did with my Bandwerk phone case!

Careful. I posted a similar comment and the mods were pretty quick to jump on me for posting political content.

Yeah, you got screwed by less than 24 hours. "Someone" signed an EO on February 1 that rescinded the $800 de minimis exemption for all imports subject to any duties effective February 4. The bill should show the HTS code for the item that would allow you to look up the rate. Until now, that exemption was in place because supposedly the cost to collect duties in smaller value shipments wasn't covered by the incremental revenue.

I only commented because I was truly surprised that the EO rescinding the de minimis exemption didn't only apply to the specific countries that were widely discussed in the media--it was across the board.
