New Yamaha integrated amps

Just a few days ago I checked the Yamaha site to see if they really were releasing a new S lineup. I read somewhere (maybe Reddit or here) that they were going to release updated S series integrated amps. Well, I checked again tonight, and voila! There they are---the new A-S1200, 2200 and 3200 (flagship). I'm in the process of looking for a new integrated and the 2100 was on my radar. I'd like to see what's different on these. I bet the older models will have some sweet deals. Has anyone seen or heard them yet!

One of the best features the Yammies had, IMHO, was the continuously variable loudness control. Shame that doesn't carry over to the top model.

Thanks for explaining the transformers---I've learned so much from you guys. As for loudness, that's one thing I like about the Luxman integrated amps. Even though loudness isn't on the unit itself, its on the remote. Do you think the new 2200 is roughly equivalent to the 505uxii?

I have the AS2100 & CDS2100 very happy with both. Rarely mentioned on this forum. I was surprised to see this post.

Steve Huff wrote a heck of a review on the S-3000 https://www.stevehuffphoto.com/the-yamaha-a-s-3000-integrated-amp-review/. 

I would love to pick one up at a reduced price.
