" ... Very compact amplifier, especially good sonics for small to medium sized internet speakers. ... "
" ... As the main amp for my media system. ... It sounds way better that you would think. ... "
" ... It was a Sunday and I did not expect to hear from them. ... The amp sound quality is not great but for the price its worth it to me. ... "
" ... This is an unbelievably excellent sounding amplifier with this tiny, little footprint. ... For filling a small room with sound, you cannot go wrong. ... I am using it to drive some surround system speakers (two in parallel for 4 ohms per channel, 1x 3” speaker and a sub on one channel and 2x 3” speakers on the other) and, for such a crude and tacked together system, it performs beyond admirably (this setup just happened to sound better than the pair of bookshelf speakers I have.) ... "
" ... This powers my 6in speakers with ease and the sound is much more full. ... At normal comfortable sound levels, the sound is great. ... "
" ... The sound reproduction is clear and faithful, but on the second unit I definitely noticed the noise other reviewers are referring to as "coil whine": a persistent high-frequency chirping sound on both channels whenever the unit is powered on. ... Following the advice of those reviewers, I replaced the power supply with another (albeit also junk-quality) 12V supply, and the sound vanished. ... "
" ... It works great for my bookshelf speakers. ... "
" ... I needed something for my desktop that wasn't a cheapo computer sound system, so I got this amp and some MB42X speakers. ... The amp sounds great and doesn't get in the way. ... "

" ... My idea was to take some modern speakers, a small amp, and an Alexa dot to make myself my idea of the ultimate smart speaker. ... My final plan is to move the amp and Dot inside of the cabinet and connect the controls to the knobs on the Zenith and have the Dot LEDs swirl around the dial. ... "
" ... I needed something for my desktop that wasn't a cheapo computer sound system, so I got this amp and some MB42X speakers. ... "
" ... If your looking to boost the output of your TV without spending hundreds on a soundbar system id say this is a good idea. ... "
" ... I'm an audio enthusiast and I have quite a number of devices working at home. ... I use it in my office, connected to my laptop through an iFi-Zen DAC and the sound is fantastic. ... "
" ... I added an 8 port switch box for all the media gear I use and the Kinter works very well with all. ... "
