Nobsound Mini Bluetooth 5.0 Power Amplifier, Stereo Hi-Fi Digital Amp 2.0 Channel 50W×2 with AUX/USB/Bluetooth Input, Wireless Audio Receiver, PC Sound Card with Power Supply (Black)

I am somewhat of an audio enthusiast and let me start by saying that this is one incredible and powerful little amp. I've recently completed a rebuild of some Polk Audio 6.5" outdoor speakers and bought this amplifier to power them. Let me tell you, the sound level is truly amazing. This amp really has some muscle and the sound quality is quite good. I did, however, have a slight issue and need to apologize to Douk Audio. I had a replacement unit sent to me due to Bluetooth audio dropouts and severe distortion. I thought I had a defective unit, but the replacement had the same problem. Come to find out, the problem is with my iphone 6. The iOS was recently updated to 10.3.2 and it ruined the phone's Bluetooth connectivity when connected via wifi. All of my Bluetooth devices now have audio playback issues. The Nobsound's Bluetooth function does work perfectly with my other tablets and wife's iphone 6 which has iOS 10.2. The build quality seems pretty solid and I do like the fact that it accepts banana plugs. So far, the longest continuous playback has been about 1.5 hours and the amp only has gotten moderately warm playing at mid to low volume. I will be putting it through the paces soon. I plan on taking it to the beach along with my outdoor Polks that I previously mentioned. I'll be using a 12ah SLA battery with a 150W inverter for power. I've tested the set up and it works pretty well. I estimate the battery should last about 6hours using the supplied 5A power pack and pushing the amp below 50% volume. The beach will definitely be rockin' when I show up....ha!. Seriously though, in my opinion, having a set up like this makes a portable Bluetooth speaker obsolete. This is like having your home stereo with you anywhere you go, EXTREMELY loud with clear quality sound. I don't normally write reviews, but after seeing the other lack luster and not so good reviews, I had to chime in. I am thoroughly impressed and will highly recommend this Nobsound to anyone looking to power an extra set of speakers. I will definitely purchase another whenever this one goes out.

This worked perfectly with built in house speakers, easy to install and use, very powerful too

I’ve got three different amps on my sim rig running various bass shakers, and this one’s been a pleasant surprise. It’s powering two BST-2s and while it doesn’t hit as hard as some of my other amps, it delivers enough punch to feel immersive without being overwhelming. Setup was quick and easy—it even comes with an AUX cable, RCA cables, and a power supply, so you’re ready to go right out of the box. A few design notes: • The green front LED is very bright—noticeable in a dark room. • The front is white which doesn't really 'go' with most audio gear. • AUX input is on the front, which makes clean cable routing tricky. • The volume knob is oversized and has very little resistance—it works fine but feels a bit excessive. Still, performance is solid and reliable. Great value and a clean, simple option for tactile feedback in a sim setup.

Super nice and simple amp, I really like the volume knob and I was happy that it includes the RCA to AUX cable which is pretty good quality. The whole product feels really high quality and works perfectly for my speakers. EDIT/UPDATE: At first I liked it and I think for some uses it still works great but for my music setup I noticed some volume fluctuations that weren't part of the music and it was a minor annoyance but bothered me a bit and also there was a static noise that was produced by the amp at higher volumes. But these problems also could be from mine being damaged during shipping.

The reviews that claim this is "unbelievable for the size and cost" are rather... apocryphal. That said for a USB DAC, I would definitely say it's fairly decent, and overall does a good job. I use this to drive some 160W Pioneer reflex loudspeakers and it does a good job; I have this amp at 1/4 on the volume dial and that's plenty enough for room easy listening, with little noticeable distortion and no obvious clipping. The connectors on the back work with both spliced cables or banana plugs; I did reuse some existing decent audio cables and it's comical how they drag the small lightweight amp down. I do have some cons though: - By default the unit seems to enter Bluetooth mode (blue status led) and I need to unplug/replug the USB cable for it to switch back to USB (green status led). - Mode changes are accompanied by an absolutely unnecessary "USB mode" or "Bluetooth mode" announcement via the speakers. I wish this could be turned off as it's wholly unnecessary to hear when I power up my system. - When the USB plug is connected and the laptop source is not issuing any sound, there's a clear white noise hiss coming out of the speakers. It is _very_ noticeable. That does not happen in BT mode. So let that sink a bit: in USB mode, there's a clear *analog* white noise hiss when there's no USB signal... That leads me to believe they don't turn the amp off even though the USB is not providing any data. That white noise is present in the "quiet" sections of music too. - I tried to use it in BT mode and there's a clear noticeable delay, at least 250 ms or more. It's significant enough that I can't watch a movie with that in BT mode. - The power supply is fairly light and never seems to get too hot. Probably the typical buck converter design. It would not be a bad idea to put these behind a power strip and cut power completely when you're done. Bottom line : The sound is acceptable for what costs a fraction of a proper USB DAC. However the BT/USB switch and the mode announcements are real turns off.

A joke amp. It is a fraction of the power advertised

Tenía guardadas unas bocinas de un teatro en casa Logitech Z906 que se me dañó y que me daba mucho pesar deshacerme de ellas porque me parecen muy buenas, investigando di con este pequeño aparato y después de leer y ver videos en YouTube decidí comprarlo, la verdad me impresionó por varias razones, lo mas obvio es su tamaño (en general casi todos los amplificadores de este tipo son grandes y feos) lo tenía pensado como sistema de sonido para mi sala y es muuuy discreto, la segunda razón es la facilidad y sencillez para conectarlo y configurarlo, lo haces literalmente en 3 min y por ultimo su potencia es muy buena tal vez le hace falta un poco de bajos pero por el precio tan bajo tengo un sistema de sonido bluetooth e inteligente (ahorita explico esta parte) decente y puedo seguir utilizando mis bocinas. Bueno ahora esta la parte de hacerlas inteligentes, me gusto tanto el sistema que quise ir un poco mas alla y sacarle mas jugo, pues descubrí como conectarlas a un chrome nest y ahora las instrucciones de reproducción que le doy a mi asistente personal se reproduce en mis bocinas a través de bluetooth, simplemente increíble para unas bocinas que estuve a punto de tirar literalmente hablando, así que ahora tengo un sistema de sonido de buena calidad y es smart, no puedo pedir mas Compraré otro para las otras bocinas que tengo del mismo teatro en casa y las pondré en mi oficina, me tiene encantado.

Not working and not powering on at all

Lo uso a donde voy..

El mini es perfecto, cómodo, y sinceramente es mucho mejor de lo que esperaba, le quitó una estrella porque el Bluetooth se desconecta seguido pero con cable como lo muestro en la foto funciona perfectamente! Super recomendado.
