we had made some change base on user feedback and suggestion from ASR member, thanks again for all of your advice and help us keep improve.
  • Auto power off time set to 20 mins
  • Increase audio detection sensitivity RCA: 200uVrms; XLR: 400uVrms,this significantly meet some user listening in very very low volume.
  • Auto audio sensing power on/off can be disable/enable by user.

That's great news, but will this only be available for newly produced A5's? I don't own this amp yet, but on product pictures it doesn't seem like there is an option to do a firmware update on existing models, right?

I want the 3A A5 without power supply is the only one that is not selling at Aliexpress.
When is going to be available at Amazon USA?
 
A7se would be nice to see as well.

What other PSU do you recommend more then one shipped from 3e Audio as bundle?

A7se would be nice to see as well.
The best would be to see them all as one review. ;)

Awesome! So with auto sensing off, will the unit automatically turn on when the PSU is powered on? This would allow the use of a 12v trigger device - for example the one from Audiophonics - or power cycling with smart sockets.

yes, auto power on when PSU is active.
 
yes, all back now
When ordering from eg Audiophonics, is there any way be sure that I get the latest version of the amps? Are there any version numbers?
 
same question of the latest version , but from the AE store that was restocked recently. are those the newer version?
yes,that is why we postpone 2nd launch untill make the improvement change.
 
So, what about owners of the amps from the first batch?

At least some instruction for diy
Increase audio detection sensitivity RCA: 200uVrms; XLR: 400uVrms
would be nice.
 
The "Buy It Now" button on the 3e Audio web page links directly to AliExpress where the name on the face plate of the amplifier shown is SOYYIN. There is a 3eAudio Store on AliExpress but without the full range of A5 and A7 amplifiers listed - one of the two amplifiers shown is again marked SOYYIN. Apologies if I have missed something in this thread but this is not making it easy for a prospective buyer.
