These have been out of stock FOREVER will EVGA ever make and sell more?

If not, can they be purchased directly from the 3rd party EVGA had design them?

Hey clama, not sure if you have been informed by now or not, but i noticed there were no responses in here.
The factory that makes one of the components for the Audio cards burned down (a while back) and that is why they have been not in stock in years.
Information is from EVGA_James directly!

Hello, at this time we do not consider these EOL, but we do not have additional incoming products at this time.  Because EVGA manufactures these cards, Audio Note (UK) would not have these available for sale.  We also have future plans for the NU Audio series, but nothing currently on the horizon, however.
 
If you are interested, I would strongly consider to purchase a B-Stock version of these cards when they are available.

Yes, AKM had a major fire at their chip factory back in October 2020 (took 3 days to put out the fire!), which greatly affected production at the time.  But besides that, there are some other component shortages, including the op-amps, which affect continued production on the cards, as well.
