I'm being sent a silver one straight from china as a replacement. There are no more black ones.Received today the replacement unit, although I know it will last for some months only again. Let's see.
How many hours per day (on average), was the PA5 on?First unit broke in June after 5 months of Use. Second unit broke in late October after 4 months of use. RMA'ing then selling the new unit BNIB, I cba anymore.
On average probably 14-16, some days I forgot to turn it off.How many hours per day (on average), was the PA5 on?
Just like me! (I am on the 3rd PA5, first two also with problems after 3-4 months of almost always on/idle)On average probably 14-16, some days I forgot to turn it off.
That really sucks man. Hope this unit is better for you.Just like me! (I am on the 3rd PA5, first two also with problems after 3-4 months of almost always on/idle)
Hopping this one is an exception, and will last several years, because I really like the sound of it
Would you be able to provide Screenshots/links to these admissions and statements please? That's really intriguing.Topping and the resellers have all said they have a problem on their hands. They even said they would officially extend the warranty to two years. That's what they said, crickets when it matters.

Also see this post by @TOPPING-Service earlier in this thread.Would you be able to provide Screenshots/links to these admissions and statements please? That's really intriguing.
at this point, if you are on ASR and you still buy PA5, it's beyond me. Yes, it's your money, your choice, but how's a few SINAD justify the anxiety and confusion if (and it's a likely if) it fails?
How about 1 of these but you need a volume control.>Wow, this is quite the happening. I was ready to buy two PA5's, but now this thread discourages me to do so... Unfortunately I don't see a direct replacement product, regarding Sinad/$/Watts and having balanced connectors.
