@3eaudio I can’t help wondering what is happening with these new products. The only info I’ve seen was from a few Amazon listings, some of which have been taken down. The products don’t appear on the 3e Audio website and searching for Alsozone turns up nothing.

Perhaps this is an advanced form of stealth marketing?

Where to buy them direct from China shipping globally?
still depends, as many countries are different in how the logistics work.
You can contact us if an order from Amazon or audiophonice can't be done.
 
It is moduler design so you will easily understand how they strutured.

I like the modular concept, but as a German, the name sounds a bit odd to me.
For older West Germans like me, the "Zone" long referred to the former GDR. The border area was the "Zonenrandgebiet."
It sounds a bit like: "Also: Zone"

This is the lineup on amazon.de ... I'm in the same number of "minds" as the number of channel options, starting with "two".
But I wish 3e audio well ... loving my A7 (and A5).
 
Just gonna say, @3eaudio, I would never buy something with that horrible looking white text printed on the front.

It just screams "cheap"

I’m looking for the PAM256 (or maybe the PAM258). Eagerly awaiting Amir’s review of the PAM256 or PAM258. (I hope a unit has been sent to him).

Currently not available from Amazon in Canada.

No info on the web. It’s certainly been (and still is) an odd product launch.
 
It seems a strange design choice to use horizontal heatsink fins rather than vertical with wider spacing for passive convection. If they were using front-to-back forced airflow it would make sense, but not as it is.

I also dislike the huge text.
 
At $150/channel

I don't see advantage in going monolithic as opposed to modular.

Especially since the channel / speaker types need vastly different power levels?
 
Good job 3E Audio.
Looking forward to see the ASR review.

We can guess that the modules have a DIP8 socket for the Op amps update.

@3eaudio
I do indeed think that this is a design error which could, in my humble opinion, have repercussions on your sales. I agree with antcollinet
Design, in essence, can be considered the art of sales and promotion. This is a bit like the 3E Audio showcase here... get rid of that logo! ))
