It is said Avalon will start to ship the Avalon 6 at the end of Oct,2015 , hashing rate : 3.5T , Power consuming : 300W / T , price: USD 315 / T . After calculation, Avalon 6 will be USD60 /T less and 70W/T more if antminer keep the same price with the next bath. It is no official news and no photo right now , but it is been pre-saling on some chinese website. I hope Avalon will do better job on noise level of Avalon 6, then can get more customers on the current hard situation. Please post out your idea for this .. *************************************************** Update on 21th Oct.: Avalon finally get their newest bitcoin miner Avalon6 spec in public Avalon6 SpecificationHash rate 3.65T±10% Power at wall 1100W(power efficiency 90%)。 Quantity of chip 80 Power connector 4x 6PIN,you need to connect all 4 connectors when running Cooling fan 12038, current min: 1.6A ,Max:2.8A Max speed: 3800RPM Temperature Max Temperature of intake :38℃ Controller Raspberry PI(version 1,B,B+),。 Each Raspberry PI can control 60 units AUC max 6 units can be connected in series with each AUC Protection The machine will not start when the fan is damaged 。 Dimension 136×150×334mm Weight 4.8kg INGRESS PROTECTION IP20 Power supply 1200W 80 plus gold power supply recommended Voltage min:11.7V max: 12.2V iTopshop will sell it soon

Until there is a full Spec, real delivery dates & prices it's silly to even consider the Avalon. However if it's a similar price & less efficient I would stick with the S7.

If they are truly shipping next month I assume the hardware is finalized, or 90% of the way there.. One would think at this point there would be more concrete information...
If the above is true I would buy a pile of them..

I would steer clear of the Avalon unit until some additional specs are released or actual shipping starts.

Pre-theorizing is a dangerous way of getting pre-scammed on pre-pre-orders. Buyers pre-beware! Someone almost fell for that with the SP50, and got pre-ripped-off 100-200 bitcoins ( we don't know how much yet, they haven't set the price )

If those are indeed the stats I would choose the Avalon without a doubt.

Avalon 4.1 is very quiet. It's the quietest fan miner I have had. Hopefully they keep this aspect as it was pretty amazing on that front. Can you link to any of the sites that show pre-orders? I am not pre-ordering but would enjoy to see the site to see if looks creditable.

If Avalon can get close to S7 efficiency, and sound levels to their 4.1 I would be all over a few Avalon 6! Aside from the Antminer S3, the 4.1 has been the the most enjoyable miner I have owned.

It's kinda a hidden gem. Most have not used it so they don't know how truly quiet it is compared to other miners. It's just a huge difference. But they did charge a premium for it. I hope they do not charge a premium for it like the 4.1 but time will tell.

I would stay far away from Avalon given my experience with them. I won't buy one of their miners again.

Is your experience from the early avalons? I'm guessing so with that. I ordered some 4.1's from when I did a guide for it. All went fine when I ordered from ehash. But I realize that is different then those who dealt with original avalon.

I am not pre-ordering but would enjoy to see the site to see if looks creditable. It's decently quiet but gets loud at points, seems my Antminer S5 with modded fans are possibly quieter overall. I have 3 and have not experienced these points. Are you overclocking or something? I am running mine at very efficient settings. I just have not seen a miner that matches them on quietness. Have ran efficient most of their life's. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1008726.0

Yea measure them and let us know. I would be interested in hearing it. I think something is off with your unit if your getting these spikes that are making it louder then a S5 even modified. You might check your fan and see if something's wrong. I have 3 and do not experience the spikes on any of them. All were bought directly from avalon (e-hash) not second hand. But I even had them running in my bedroom they were so quiet. Only miner I have done this with.

I got 55db and 1300gh I got 45db and 1100gh Yeah If I clocked to 700gh 38db would have been possible. what speed did run the s5

This is good but I highly doubt they will be cheaper than the S7 due to the prior sales prices.
The noise in the past would a great benefit but there is no reason to assume that the Avalon 6 will be quiet.
Also they should of called it the Avalon 7 to compete with S7 for the same reason why the 2nd Xbox was called Xbox 360 to compete with the 3rd generation of Playstation (PS3)

Issues with these claims. 1) Why would Avalon skip a model 5? 2) Why would this show up on some "preorder" site and not on Avalon's own site? 3) Why does the picture look IDENTICAL to an Avalon 4/4.1 unit? MY SCAMSENSE IS SCREAMING. BTW, tranlated page link for those of us that don't read Chinese https://translate.google.com/translate?hl=en&sl=zh-CN&u=http://shop.cnbite.com/product-190.html Also they should of called it the Avalon 7 to compete with S7
This unit, IF IT ACTUALLY EXISTS, doesn't appear to be aimed at the S7 - and the "logic" of basing your name for a unit on a competition product makes ZERO sense anyway. This unit, IF IT ACTUALLY EXISTS, appears to be aimed at where most folks EXPECTED the S7 to show up at, or even a pre-empt of a potential S9. In any event, the naming of the XBox 360 had NOTHING to do with the nameing of any Playstation - nor did the really dumb naming of the Xbox One.
