Welcome to ASR. There are many reviews of audio hardware and expert members to help answer your questions. Click here to have your audio equipment measured for free!
I'm gonna guess, based on the pricing for their other models, about $110€ (one of the signs goes before the number, the other one behind it - kinda handy). Which would, assuming it's a good implementation, make this a lot of amp for the money, though obviously the real power output is going to be closer to 150W or so.
Reminds me of the look of Marantz monoblocks I borrowed from a friend a while back, but those did not have VU meters. These have a nice appearance, at least. Yes, we will soon have 3255 amps in as many varieties as paint colors, I guess. As for me, if I needed that level of power, I'd still go with a Hypex or Purifi based amp, but to each one's own.

Would have preferred the opa828 in this one for a more neutral, clean and faster response with better bass control but the 1612 is….ok. I expect the op amp will be soldered too as the 1612 often is.
The opamp has no influence on the sound because any measurable difference is swamped by noise and distortion of the 3255. @amirm proofed this elsewhere here on ASR.

Where did you get that information? I can only find this image on ASR, not on Aiyima’s website or anywhere else.

Does Op-amp Rolling Work?
When I post my last video on review of Douk A5 amplifier, I mentioned that rolling (changing) op-amp ICs in there is fruitless. I got have a dozen comments under that video in youtube asking why so I thought I experiment again with the A5. Note that I have done the same testing with both DACs...

Do we really have to start a separate discussion about whether it makes sense to swap out operational amplifiers in every single thread about the TPA3255 or other chip amplifiers?
It gets really annoying after a while.

I don't expect it to be fundamentally different from other TPA3255 amplifiers, but I really like the design.

Exactly and sometimes the higher will is invisible to the eyes of the blind and the ears of the deaf, even in electronics evidently.

It seems a bit impolite that you are trolling on a site for science when you don't believe in it yourself.
