Ah, that's a prototype of our All-in-One transportable, the tentative product code is CA-8 (TBC), we are still fine-tuning the design and finishing, that's why we haven't etched the labels on the front panel. It was meant for the 2025 release, still a long way before I have anything to talk about.

Having been in manufacturing, I normally go in higher, looking at the costs, the return and others most always come in lower and they go with that.The financial consequences is an uncertainty, I suggested a much higher number at brainstorming session but my colleagues vital my suggestion collectively, so the final number turns out to be fairly user-friendly, IMHO.

I sure hope so, but we are still months away from a marketable product, and finding a good reviewer with appropriate traffic and profile to cover this amplifier would be difficult. That is understandable because sending a massive amplifier like this back to Zhuhai after the review process will be tedious.Will there be any units going out for review Andy?
