Dead silent and a slow power

The power is enough for a small set of bookshelf speakers at moderate volume, nothing loud or speakers which need more power.

This puts out almost 5 times the clean power the Lepai does at 4 ohms, so that's that.

I used it to power two small desktop speakers, however, the amp only worked when holding the power cord in a specific direction

This amp also does not deliver 50W of power, if you look into the datasheet of the chip used, with a 24V power supply (like the one included) it will only deliver about 30W of power

For anyone looking for clean cheap power in a stupid small package buy this, just don't laugh when you realize the power brick is heavier than the amp itself :D

The glowing blue power light that surrounds the volume knob is a well designed visual accent

Plenty power drive a polk audio subwoofer/bookshelf combo to clear ear-splitting levels

So I felt confident that the SA50 put out enough power for my little 141s

I am not sure if it has enough power if you were to try to use this tiny amp to run big speakers in a big room

Inefficient, using a lot more power just turned on and idling than the SMSL does at full output.

Honestly it has enough power that I barely have to turn it up at all to achieve a solid amount of volume

I am sending a strong source signal to the amp that's able to push a 4 ohm load with appropriate power levels through a decent speaker wire with good banana plugs into 2 Micca MB42 C speakers

It really has too much gain for an amp of it's power

It has more than enough power to handle my computer audio system

is at 8 o'clock, uncomfortably loud occurs at around 10 or 11 o'clock, and the 100% power label looks to be at about the 5 o'clock position (not that I've tried going anywhere near that loud).I also added an inexpensive Monoprice powered subwoofer to the mix and added a USB DAC as an alternative to just running a cable from the laptop's headphone jack to the SA50

Defective power cord, had to send it back

That means for a given amount of output power, the switching amp can be smaller and lose less power to heat than, say, a typical A/B biased amplifier

I also have a graphic EQ, so all I wanted was a dumb power amp

For anyone looking for clean cheap power in a stupid small package buy this, just don't laugh when you realize the power brick is heavier than the amp itself :D

The amp itself feels well-built and powers in-ceiling speakers with headroom to spare

BUT, the sound is excellent, pure, adequate power, and for the price, a bargain

Solid choice for some cheap raw power.

It has a large volume dial in front as well as a power switch

With that said my only complaint is the power, but I have it hooked up in a large open living room (living room, dining room, and

Tons of clean power.

Amp works great powering a pair of Polk Audio RC65i in-wall speakers in a master bathroom.

Dead silent and a slow power

Power isn't an issue either

This is disappointing because when I first got this amp it sounded GREAT - almost as good as my 30 year old MC2505 power amp in my main listening room

Its soundstage is actually decent and it produces more than enough power to easily drive loudspeakers of 85db@1 watt or higher.

Yes, theoretically it can do 50W with the right power supply, but in reality, run it more than a few watts & the distortion will make the music unrecognizable & rip apart your speakers

This unit delivers enough power to push the 25w needed for each shaker

I am powering a pair of Micca MB42X bookshelf speakers and it works great.

Perfect size, outstanding power output.

and it has more than enough power

Good sound, low power, terrific.

Excellent product that puts out clean power

Plenty of clean power in even this large room

While it does have decent power for a mini amp, I did not find it as loud as others described.

The LED power indicator behind the volume knob is quite nice as well to see the volume level in a dark room.

The power adapter cords were oddly difficult to plug into each other

I have this powering my outside patio speakers and it works great

Providing sufficient power to my Klipsch speakers

It is well built and does an awesome job powering of Fluance SX6 bookshelf speakers

This is still more than enough power for most people

And it has enough power although I use it only 25% of the volume most of the time, enough for a first floor in a single family house.

People often worry if the amplifier puts out enough power, and manufactures don't exactly help clear this up

It does have significantly less power than the SMSL, so if you're looking to fill a large room or use it with inefficient speakers, then don't bother with the Topping or the Lepai

With a decent power supply (not the one it comes with), it's perfectly fine

Power jack plug is not strength fully maintened, lack of power led indicator, otherwise nice product.
