Pros

Treble and bass adjustment knobs are nice to have. The only thing i wish is that the volume know was longer so it would allow me to put on the original knob from the radio. Plenty of power for my home practice setup and tone from lt is pretty true sin...  Read More

This thing is mind blowing. Nice tiny little amp. It is hardly noticeable being so small and compact.

It provides a warm but not muted sound. It's as good as the sound that my avr produces. Paired with an at-pl60x and micca pb42x powered speakers.

The unit itself is built like a tank (solid metal casing). The unit comes well packaged so no damage during delivery. It's a sturdy little unit, and it looks nice sitting on my shelf. The bluetooth connectivity is super.

Power is still on when the knob is in the off position. Highs roll off above 7 khz and lows roll off below 60hz. X4 very weak. Headphone port is choosy with what headphones it will take.

It does exactly what it's supposed to do, and it's low cost.


The whole rig cost under 30 bucks.

Packaging/appearance


What has impressed me is how much of an improvement this preamp is over that built into the lp120.


My wife uses it for her hobby and can use her cellphone or laptop to listen on the screen.


The wiim synch feature didn't work because the source setup didn't have the signal come from the wiim.


The speaker i got the best sound out of so far in the 30 minutes i messed with it was a bookshelf radio speaker set in the orig...  Read More

Competitiveness


Using a 19v power supply i had already.


I am using this with a fluance rt85 reference high fidelity vinyl turntable record player with ortofon 2m blue cartridge and a ...  Read More


I'm using a 7v rc battery, and it never heats up even at high volumes, and shows no difference between higher voltages.


All of these types of amps put out less power than the marketing states.
