Unclear, as the real damage and stock situation has not been explained by AKM so far. Everyone awaits details next week.

Hi MC,
Are details known in meantime?
Just want to know if it is safe to order already, as I noticed some stores have 14 days of backlog meanwhile.

No, as AKM still hasn't issued a full statement. They were not allowed to enter the building, which delayed such...
Butl there is a simple answer to your question: buy now.

@fafa44 in answer to your question https://forum.rme-audio.de/viewtopic.php?id=32450, it may be worth trying a different retailer. When I bought mine last month (Jan) I found that some of Synthax's retailers had plenty, and others had long lead times. (UK)
