kilo17 told me he was going to give me details today.
I guess he got too busy , he has a day job that can be demanding. Possibly holidays not sure.
I don't want to send him endless pm's asking for new pricing.
Hopefully he will get back to me. The gear has arrived and works.
also either fan stock or sanyo ace can be set to 40 speed.
they move air almost the same but the stock fan is faster rpm and really loud.

Thank you Phil!
I received my fans today. Thanks! They will come in handy in the fall when I bring the miners back indoors.

I'm interested in 1 avalon 6. Can I power it with the EVGA 1300w PSU that I have?
Yeah. I'm running mine just fine with Silverstone Strider Gold Evolution 1200W

Did we ever hear the price on the new group buy?
Not yet, but hopefully soon. yeah I figured there was a delay.
kilo17 sent me a pm he is going to get price for the next group buy and give it to me late tonight.
So when he does I will open the next one in the morning and then close it out on Friday.
Its a plan. I am hoping to do it that way.

Thanks to all the good points raised by y'all. After about 12 hours of hashrate going back and forth, it had settled down around 3200+ GHs as was expected for freq 400. I just replaced my corsair rm1000 with two hp server psu's, each rated at 800w @100v, should be more than enough for an A6. Yes, it's an overkill but I had the server psu's laying around doing nothing. Per your suggestion, I'm setting at freq 500 and fan 40. does it matter I have Sanyo Denki Ace fan? Anyways, I'm setting the fan at 40 no matter what fan, need clarification from more knowledgeable member.s
I use two 850w gold rated OCZ psus for mine because that's what I happened to already have on hand. Overkill like you, but better than not enough wattage as the psus will run more efficiently at lower load.I have the Sanyo fan, too, and am using 40 for fan.
My new Avalon 6 started acting up since yesterday. Hashrate goes down and it starts up again, looks like it's cycling from full hash to no hash and repeats. At the pool, my hash rate looks like regular waves, instead of a straight line. How do you troubleshoot it? Currently, I'm running it at frequency 400, corsair rm1000 psu.
Is 1000w enough? Perhaps the psu is causing the wave. Have you tried a different psu like 1200 or 1300watt?
go back to freq 500 fans at 40 make sure air flow has no restrictions.
examine all the rm1000 cables make sure they are tight and not melted.
this gear is very voltage sensitive.
but freq settings other then 500 can do truly weird shit.
my guess for you is go with a freq setting. 500 fan 40
next the three temps are like 38 70 70 the first number is the inside controller when it gets to 44 or 45 it does a reset.
check that number see how close it gets to 44 or 45.
Group buy closes out on Good Friday... that's a good omen! 
It is slowly getting closer to me 
I made the customs clearance and it is now successfully passed through the customs.
This event was about an 1.5h ago, time here is now 14:20.

Good with luck yours and biffa's will arrive today.
Customs and VAT paid on mine tonight, had to wait to get a letter in the post from ye ole antiquated poste office over here, then I could pay it online.
Won't get it till end of next week now, as its public holidays here till Tuesday. Not your fault though Phil, so don't hold up the next group buy on my behalf, you're all good to go imho.

Is 1000w enough? Perhaps the psu is causing the wave. Have you tried a different psu like 1200 or 1300watt?
I do not think a 1000w psu is enough for an A6 (although I believe the A6 with downclock itself based on available voltage), mine regularly sees 1000w at the wall. You don't want your psu % usage to be more than it's efficiency rating, i.e. a gold psu should only use 80% of it's rated power at max. continuous load, at least that's how I've always operated.
Otherwise, the "hash in waves" phenomena is exactly what mine was doing when I had its exhaust flow too restricted.

Here's a pic of it next to Ant S2:
Nice, but you should spin it 180* so that it has room to vent the exhaust air out and not right into a wall.yeah they like to breath can't do much with air restriction
I partly agree with you.
There is a decent distance from the wall, even though not a great one.
I have tried to use that Ant S2 another way but results were not that great.
All temps are under control.
