PyleHome Mini Audio Amplifier - 60W Portable Dual Channel Surround Sound HiFi Stereo Receiver w/ 12V AC Adapter, AUX, MIC IN, Supports Smart Phone, iPhone, iPod, MP3 For 2-8ohm Speakers - Pyle PFA200

I purchased this to drive 4 speakers in my dual Arcade 1up RasberryPi. Sound quality was quite good as far as I was concerned - keep in mind most audio im playing is from classic (retro) games. The speakers attached were a cheap set from an old RCA surround system and a set that came stock on the Arcade 1up systems. Bass and treble levels are noticeable when adjusted so those work on the amp. Sound level can go very high even though the speakers are of low quality. I have really tested the mic or "mp3" inputs but the composite L/R work perfectly. Definitely a great little amp for your DIY projects.

Es excelente la verdad por el precio y por lo pequeño mis espectativas eran mucho menos y sorpresa que me lleve al conectarlo a mi laptop pues el sonido es genial no al nivel audiofilo pero si para un buen oído el bajo es profundo da mucho bajó por cierto con el botón bass sin embargó el sonido lo podemos equilibrar por medio del botón treible eso sí depende la fuente de música u el orígen de esta si es música de YouTube es digamos es un audio aceptable pero si el orígen es ,Spotify, Amazon música , radio online o música guardada en la compu se escuchará genial.

Hi-Fi meets D/C and it's love at first sound.It's rare to find low power in tandem with clarity in an amplifier.The punishment for purchasing entry grade equipment is often compromised, off-the-shelf components.This unit however, started life as a sound card chip that never managed universal adoption or notoriety and ended up seeing use by various manufacturers as a cost saving audio application. The PA200 is realistically 10 watts RMS/channel before it starts to lose headroom, but that translates into some serious volume levels with audible clarity and impeccable separation. If you are a connisuer and truly enjoy separating the musical nuances in a performance, then this chip's for you. Pye has made good effort packagng this Eco-amp friendly with hum/hiss-free stand-by and bass/treble controls which really come in handy for desktop applications.This is a super amp for a mere $30.00 folks! The benefits of running on 12 volts makes this unit so versatile in a host of environments. Low power consumtion, extremely small package, short output protected,light weight and minimal heat losses have filled a long overdue niche for a portable amplifier. It's so efficient it doesn't even need heat sinks but it delivers shimmering sibilance and amazingly controlled bass without wandering or runaway. The black extruded aluminum case should hold up well in mixed humidity use, where steel would make it look like your snowblower in a few years. A smart inclusion is a 1/4 standard mike jack on the rear and 2 RCA inputs and a 1/8 stereo on the front panel. Some users of these amps find there's not enough power or a lot of line noise but Pye has made their version with quality circuitry and connectors and mine is whisper quiet on Max connected to an iPad. The clarity of this amp easily reveals the lack of MP3's and AAC compared with CD.There are better sample rates amongst MP3's of course but any subtractive compression method in order to save storage, is dropping a lot of musical info. If I play the same music from the two different sources, the difference is dramatic. An iTunes download compared with a CD is far grainier and the bass smuggier, the composites of musical white noise is audibly truncated compared to the silky presentation from a CD. And once again, the level inputs are far higher and produce cleaner signal to noise levels at partial volume. Turntables can be notorious for rumble and hum but if your shielding is good,this amp will redefine all that old vinyl of yours, bringing out the best of analog sources. As an off-grid application this unit won't drain your deep cycle batteries for days...it's either Steppenwolf or eye-to-eye "really talking" on this two day, rained out trip. I have a Pioneer 7.1 system that would shut down the system by the time Frodo intercepts Gandalf on Bibo's birthday if hooked it to an inverter. 12 volt power packs come in a lot of different sizes to provide hours of decent amplification that you could strap to your body or facilitate a campfire group. The key is in it's flexibility and non fatiguing clarity. Nice job Pye, just don't get cheap on us "... That was Hammond's mistake".

Connected external speakers to my TV. This works well and allows me to control volume from my TV remote. Using an adapter from headphone jack at TV to RCA input to amp. Speaker wire output from amp. Simple and works. Bought 2 and will probably buy another to put on other TVs

Como era para alimentar unas bocinas para mi habitación, la potencia es excelente, a pesar de de que las bocinas pueden más alcancen un nivel de volumen y nitidez de sonido muy bueno.Lo unico malo son los leds del potenciometro de control de volumen, por lo cual bajo mi responsabilidad y riesgo, abrí el amplificador y retire los leds de la placa base y listo!
