We don't know the failure rate, but there's something we can see based on statistics.
In this forum we have many, many threads about products, and the thread with many reported failures is precisely the thread about the PA5. So, is reasonable to argument that something must be happening with that amplifier ... or someone knows about a campaign against the amplifier.
We don't have a real scientific measurement, but the crowd sourcing is telling something to us. Google / Amazon and many TI solutions are based on this.
Something called "the crowd knowledge" or "wisdom of the crowd" ... and it works in many areas, also with scientific proof.
Is very interesting really (
