Bluetooth is a great feature as well as all the different inputs
Some of my preferred features that don't appear together on many others are Bluetooth w/Aptx, optical in for the tv, a very readable display, and the intuitiveness in using it.
The sound quality is fine and the features are good on paper... but they don’t actually work
Excellent, clean power and features in a small very small package; very good room-filling sound.- Not true audiophile quality, but will meet needs of 99% of uses in-home for moderate volume listening.- Directions are a skimpy, remote function is average, built-in EQ effects extreme ranges and not very musical
Great features can be a stand in for a mini AVR with all the hookups and sub out.

If SMSL would get their QC checks worked out, their rating would be excellent because when it works it is a great product with tremendous flexibility!I should also add that I am an amateur musician and an avid audio-nerd
In conclusion - this is a fantastically good product, that, if it lasts, will also be an exceptional value
SMSL need to fix that issue and then it will be a perfect product
If you're looking for the greatest number of digital inputs in the smallest possible package, you've found it.(In an effort to communicate with the Internet of the Future, if a better product does present itself, let me know.)
Well, if S.M.S.L. is reading these reviews, then the following is my suggestion box for your already great product:Headphone amp

I've had Carver Receivers and other high end audio, and this little amplifier is the BEST EVER
It's a cute little amplifier, but I feel it was falsely advertised.
While a nice small footprint amplifier, it's Chinese origins made it difficult to use (poor user manual, remote VERY confusing to navigate, and lack of controls on unit)
Used this way, this is a fantastic amplifier for filling any room in your house with music
As I ticked off all of those "wish list" features, I realized this might be the perfect micro amplifier for me.

In my excitement over seeing the thumb drive support, microSD, nice screen, and extra song controls on the Plus, I failed to notice that it lacked one more
The S.M.S.L. AD-18 gives you 2 Optical inputs (44.1KHz-192KHz/24 bit), A COAX input (44.1KHz-192KHz/24 bit), a USB input (44.1KHz-96KHz/24 bit), an Aux analog input, Bluetooth (4.2), a Sub-woofer output (line level), L/R speaker terminals (5-way binding posts with 80 watts/channel @ 4 ohms), a built in headphone amp with 3.5mm output (front), bass/treble/volume controls, 7 preset EQ's, a remote control, and a nifty display screen!
The unit still have led screen lit and everything else function correctly

This amp sounds perfectly fine, has good power, and will do fine with normal speakers.
It has enough power to run my speakers and best of all it's plugged into my Tv as
It has more than enough power for these 100 watt per channel speakers, the signal is very clean, it has a good form factor
Basically, they suck for the most part, unless you are willing to spend way too much $$ for overpriced powered speakers that have (IMO) just average sound quality
The amp provides crystal-clear sound with sufficient power

As far as sound quality, it is better than I expected (maybe the Revel speakers are helping here?).
the SA-50 Plus and the sound quality is truly excellent
The sound quality is great and it has plenty of horsepower
Sound quality out of the speakers is great and they get plenty loud
You don't need some expensive sound card, just plug and play and it will power any set of passive high quality bookshelf speakers as well as allow easy connection to a subwoofer

Decent power, but make sure you have relatively efficient speakers.
I suspect it would work a lot better with Klipsch or other more modern efficient speakers.
For anyone out there like me, with a pair of really great sounding passive bookshelf speakers which they would love to use again, or use as computer speakers, then this is the amp for you
I'd buy one again if I had more efficient speakers to drive.
So now I have to buy better speakers to let this little beast reach it's potential
