I tried ordering the YJ boards from Aliexpress and got a message saying that due to security reasons the order was closed and if I want to process the order, I need to file a claim on their website and submit copy of my ID or passport, a copy of both sides of the CC used, and a copy of the CC bank statement! Woa! that is way too much info. Are you guys having to do this too? This seems either a scam or just overboard.

I ordered stuff from them yesterday and had no issues like that.

That sounds 100% fishy... at best.

I've ordered from them before without issue. Admittedly, it's been awhile, so wonder if their policy has changed?

Random. Try ordering again in a couple of days. And obviously don't give away any information.

What would the world be without th eNSA ?

BTW has anyone of you all experimented with the output LC filter on the TPA3116 boards ? It seems Yuan Jing uses 22 µH coils which seems a too high value (according the data sheet) for 8 Ohm speakers. Got my boards today so I am just trying to gather info.

xrk,

This sounds too fishy, do not do it. All the info that the site is asking are what the authorities tell us do not give out.

How can buying a small amplifier impact national security??!! The chip and design are from the US!!

Try another seller.

That's why ! Never trust stuff that's made or designed over there as it has back doors, security leaks etc. ;) You will like the last link !
