    Lepy LP-2020A Hi-Fi Digital Amplifier, Mini Stereo Audio Amplifier with Power Supply Black US

    • As noted by many other reviewers, these don't have enough power to shake the house, but they will provide enough clean sound to fill a small to medium sized room
    • The (well-regulated) power supply provides under this condition 1.56A at 12.7V DC
    • There's more than enough power to fill a small room.
    • It works well and puts out sufficient power for those speakers
    • But when on its side, it puts out enough power for me to use it while saving up for a nicer amplifier for my turntable
    • Just enough power for his room
    • At one time the Lepai shipped with what sounded like a very suspect power supply from Vonage
    • Just don't expect it to be the super power amp you are hoping for
    • Remarkably good sound and power considering the size
    • There are many suitable power supplies on Amazon that sell for about six bucks
    • Another option is that with the 2013 model the LP-2020A+ is finally shipping with an adequate power supply
    • Out of two that I purchased elsewhere, not at Amazon, one had a bad power supply
    • In case you're wondering, it has way more than enough power to get the job done.
    • When I purchased it, I was afraid that it would have enough power.
    • This amp delivers truly clean power
    • Decent power for how inexpensive the amp is
    • I don't see where the "2013 Upgraded Model" is any different than the standard model, so I would suggest saving the difference and buying the standard model now that they have replaced the terrible power supplies the earlier ones hadI have 3 of
    • I do wish the blue light indicating that the device is powered on was not so bright
    • Not enough power to pull a speaker.
    • Less power than I hoped for but perfect for desktop, wouldn't recommend for much more than a 10'x10' room
    • I am powering my outdoor speakers with this and it works well.
    • the amp will benefit from a more powerful power supply.
    • I've made several amps so far out of varying components... and this by far had the best overall power and sound
    • but I do know what decent power sounds like
    • was screechy).As others have stated, a separate better quality power supply would be a good idea especially since we're still talking cheap at $30 instead of $20 with the better supply although I have not heard the amp with these other power supply's
    • The most noticeable improvement is the power supply and higher gain than the previous models making it easier to interface with I phones, etc
    • Its completely silent, low power (<10W), and is light enough to be attached to the back of my TV (I used a strip of velcro)
    • Just be sure to feed it a clean signal with a well-regulated power supply, and you'll get a clean result.
    • It has enough power to make my bookshelf speakers rumble.
    • It's a cheap amp, with a cheap power supply provided
    • My room is about 15x15 feet and this delivers enough power to fill the room with sound at volume 3 setting
    • But, it should ship with the proper power supply, don't you think?
    • I was worried that my speakers wouldn't be getting enough power from it, seeing as my receiver was 120 watts
    • If you get a power supply that works, the amperage is too low to get the most out of this amp anyway
    • This one had a defective power supply
    • Enough power with the 3amp power adapter to fill my office.
    • but that's just another reason to get the better power supply
    • Overall power on this one is not impressive.
    • good power
    • I now own two of these, one with a Vonage power supply and this one with a proper power supply.
    • For 15x15 feet room, this thing could actually output enough power for ear damage
    • I don't doubt that the LP-2020A+ has shipped with some bad power supplies
    • The power supply that everyone is whining about is a 12 volt LCD monitor adapter
    • The story was that the provided power supply was too weak at three amps and a better power supply would solve this issue
    • Great little amp with more than enough power to drive my bookshelf speakers as studio monitors for my home studio.
    • I expected a little bit more power from it, but it works fine for what it costs
    • It gives more than enough power to make your speakers loud and sound great, I love it!
    • Here goes:Pros:-Works-Sounds clear at low volumes-screw holes on sides in case someone wanted to, say, screw the amp on to the bottom/side of a desk (like I did)-Provides decent power for my Monoprice MBS-650s.-Built-in EQ controls with bypassCons:-Cheapish build quality, although that is to be expected at this price point
    • Plenty of clean power and sound for a office or bedroom - up to 60% on the volume knob - then she runs out of gas so to speak.
    • There was just no where near enough power output.
    • Don't know cause, possibly faulty power supply
    • Not as much power as the Lepai original, but it will suffice.
    • While this may be a good bargain for less than $20, this little amplifier simply doesn't have enough power properly drive some decent speakers at sufficient volume
    • It does sound very good at appropriate power levels
    • There is no power hum or any additional noises when in operation.
    • I would recommend this to anyone in need of an amp for powering good quality speakers without the use of a component stereo receiver.
    • Sounds great with ample power for the casual event.
    • I guess if they gave a better power supply it would be 30 bucks instead of 20
    • It works pretty well, but whenever we switch sources, power the amp on, or start playing sound after long pauses, a loud pop comes over the amp
    • I actually expected it to be a cheap-o, with static and obvious flaws.
