I made the same mistake - thinking that I could just flip a switch and have this little amp sound great right away.
The rule of thumb has always been that whatever the wattage per channel is for a tube amp, double it to get the same amount of power from a solid state amp.

The build quality appears solid, the aesthetics are appealing, the audio is pleasant and for $50+ you can add a tube preamp to your audio system.
It's just great audio
Wrong impedance, etcetera, will lead to less good audio outcomes.

Common tube type for tube rolling fun, looks cool lit up
This piece of crap is made to catch your eye, the tubes aren't real, LED lights light them up, I guess its just for buffering.the inside guts are "floating" inside, not firmly attached to the casing

We run a 1970's turntable through a portable sound system that normally just plays digital music
You could swap around components to suit your personal taste and budget, but this package, in my opinion, is an unbeatable budget system.
In fact, I think my solid state system is going to be relegated to “back up” status.

It gives a much needed depth and warmth to your music that is lacking in solid state stages, and reminds me of the quality of sound I used to get from my old tube system I had back in the 60’s before I went solid state
The sound that they produce in combination with the really excellent Little Bear phono stage and the Monoprice amp is incredible.

It does you no good to buy nice equipment and then buy trashed vinyl
For the $60 you spend on this tiny little beast, you will be rewarded by literally hearing all your precious Vinyl again as you may have never heard before if you are new to tubes

It will be better if its GND jack can be really connected to the ground, which can decrease the background noise to a very low level
For MM turntables, please check whether your MM cartridge is the old version
If so
we suggest you to upgrade it as a new version one will bring much better sound
Please make sure that your turntable has a PHONO output
A LINE OUT turntable has a built-in preamp and it won't work well with T7
Please keep T7 away from devices that can transfer signal like cellphones and routers
Do not connect T7 to any inferior Bluetooth digital amplifiers except Class T digital amplifiers, since all Class D amplifiers have very loud background noise.
