I've ordered about 6 of these little red amplifiers so far. Two were hit by lightening, and 3 arrived damaged.
Anyway, after pulling the heat sinks off and cleaning off the heatsink grease, I've noticed that most of them have TDA7498 labeled chips. One of them is labeled as TDA7498E.
Am I just getting screwed by bad sellers or are these actually TDA7498E chips? Anyone else had this happen? Anyone know a reputable seller on ebay selling the reald deal?

I was lucky getting a TDA7498E chip on my board more than a year ago. A problem is that most Chinese sellers are traders who seem to have little control with and knowledge about the products they pass on.
