Title: Audio Amplifier.
Post by: wild_eyed on November 13, 2013, 06:50:02 pm: hi all, just reaching the end of my first Bartop build and im looking for a simple stereo amplifier for the build.

i was looking at this:

any thoughts?

basically anything similar or cheaper that people know off?

And even though I doubt it puts out 2x10W, it's more powerful than most cheap computer speaker amps, which are rated at like 2x1.5W or 2x3W.

I used 2 of those on a twin ps3 driving cabinet and was happy with the stereo output but not that happy woth the sub out, seemed to distort internally well below the ability of the speakers, and that wasn't even that loud.
