The first entry is always the pin's source. Overall confidence is a weighted average of how firmly each reference supports the start and end times used above; a reference counts half as much for every 180 days older than the newest.
Forbes[4]' announcement piece (https://www.forbes.com/sites/marksparrow/2026/08/27/yamaha-extends-hi-fi-lineup-with-two-premium-compact-streamers/) states the WXA-70A was announced 27 August 2026 and 'will become available in November 2026' for $1,300. Only a month is given, so the pin is dated to 30 November 2026 as an estimate.
TWICE's report of Yamaha's[1] announcement states "The Yamaha WXA-70A Compact Streaming Amplifier ($1,299.95 MSRP)... will be available in November 2026."
Gear Patrol's own headline, 'Yamaha's[1] New Amplifier Promises to Revive Your Old Bookshelf Speakers,' published August 27, 2026, frames the WXA-70A's announcement roughly two weeks before the pin's stored September 8, 2026 date.
Forbes confirms the WXA-70A was announced August 27, 2026 and will become available in November 2026 for $1,300 - the announcement predates the pin's stored September 8, 2026 date, with actual shipping still pending at that point.
eCoustics' announcement article gives the WXA-70A's "55 W + 55 W (8 ohms...) 70 W + 70 W (6 ohms...)" output, its comparison with the 2016 WXA-50 ($599.95), 5.7 lbs weight, the $1,299.95 MSRP, November 2026 availability and the CEDIA Expo debut on September 2-4 in Denver.
Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
