This is a great amp for the price. The TPA3255 is a bit of a beast. From crap outputs like a tv or a low/mid range motherboard there is some signal noise which is unfortunate. I'd recommend a DAC if you get this, also upgrade to a 48v PSU for another $25 or so. This is probably the most power out of a mini-amp you can get for under $100.

These are the specs from Texas Instruments website:

Total Output Power at 10%THD+N

315-W Stereo into 4 Ω in BTL Configuration
185-W Stereo into 8 Ω in BTL Configuration
600-W Mono into 2 Ω in PBTL Configuration

Total Output Power at 1%THD+N

260-W Stereo into 4 Ω in BTL Configuration
150-W Stereo into 8 Ω in BTL Configuration
480-W Mono into 2 Ω in PBTL Configuration

Note that you do have to upgrade the power supply to 48V if you want to get the 75w per channel, otherwise you'll be getting about 56w per channel out of the box with the included 32V PSU.

But 75W per channel at 8 Ω is still really good for an amp of this size and cost, it is similar to most low end receivers that cost $300 to $600 (Denon AVR-S760H for example)
Oh suuuure it will output 300 watts. Right before it bursts into flames because you'd have to overvolt the sh!t out of it to obtain those numbers. I'm sure it's great for bookshelf speakers and very efficient larger speakers though.
There's really no need to guess. Amir reviewed this model with extensive measurements [audiosciencereview.com]

With the included power supply (32V 5A) this baby puts out 77 Wpc @ 4 ohm and 48 Wpc @ 8 ohm. Thats pretty good for the price and size; signal to noise is not great though.

For the low-end, at 20 Hz, max power drops to 55W @ 4 ohm.

Looking forward to when they offer TRUE MONOBLOCK versions of these one day where they actually deliver twice the power vs stereo and use all the circuitry and have a sub out with adjustable crossover (either variable or fixed at a few fixed freq settings like 100/80/60.

Quote from d3a1z :
I have seen good reviews, but it does always make me laugh when the advertised power is more than the draw of the amp. Maybe there is a fusion reactor or something inside? Audio has always been kind of silly like that.
No, no reactor is required The amerage rating is a nominal rating. The amperage rating on the power supply or marking on the back of the amp are average maximum draws over time.
Many if not all amps actually draw more in bursts and will not overload the system.

So a beefy amp rated at 1200watts x 2 but marked on the back saying maximum draw of 15amps could still actually produce 2400watts at maximum in burts which is all you would ever require.

In any case this particular amp will not produce a clean 300watts X 2, not even with a huge power supply. It simply will not.
Be careful with the spec sheet from Texas I. That is the chip manufacturers rating under certain optimal conditions none of which apply to design of the Aiyima, which is a cost limited design. The TI speca are for a superbly designed engineering sample with no cost saving measures taken and a 50+v powersupply.

Also for anyone note you cannot bridge this amp, you will break it. It was not designed for it. The mono examples are a different design.

This unit has been bench tested by several people with several power supplies.
ASR tested with something similar to what it comes with.
WIth either a 32/ 5a or a 48v/3a supply it was around 60-80watts per channel@4ohm and 60watts @8ohm and add another 20% above that if you allow for up to 1% THD..

Totally fine for most applications but no powerhouse. Slap on a not noob friendly 48+v/10a powersupply and maybe get sorta close to triple the clean output. Might be fun for some.

Just to add…I read where someone used a variable PS and found something like 43v was optimal and any more voltage caused issues like distortion or overheating.
Williston audio has some good YT video of testing these mini amps on an amp dyno.

Quote from eddiesxb :
You can power 2 of them. This is only a stereo (2 channel) amp. You would need 2 of these to power all 4. (Assuming that you have an avr with pre-outs for each speaker, which most do.) 1 for front L+R and 1 for rear L+R. I just purchased the Fosi V3 (with the upgraded 48v power supply) which is similar to this to power the rear height speakers in my system, as my Denon X3800 will process 11 channels but only power 9. I also purchased the Iot relay (link below) to trigger it on as I just want to set it up without needing to turn it on and off manually every time I power on the system after the calibration.

Thanks, helpful. I have a denon x3700h but I'm using it as zone 2 only. I only see a pre-out for one left / right for zone 2. Assume I need a speaker selector box or a 4 channel amp then? Can I just connect two speakers into each output on the 2 channel since they're 8 ohm?

Do you really notice a difference with another opamp? How could you even notice such a slight difference in sound? I was thinking about trying it, but I heard there isn't much difference in sound.

Honestly, it was fun. That's it. If you have the money to do it and want to play around with different opamps, do it. I bought a bunch of cheap opamps on eBay and swapped them out and had a good time trying to tell the differences. That's really the value of this amp - you can do this and it will not cost you a lot of money and there's little risk. I bought the sparkos second hand on eBay for about half of what they retail for brand new, so that was also a win. Because they were more expensive, they stayed inside the amp. A bit of a sunk cost sort of thing. Did they sound different? Yes. Do they sound better? This is a matter of taste. Totally subjective.

Cheapest way to add Spotify to this? Trying to run some outdoor speakers. Used to have a huge receiver, but after moving the room around trying to tuck something behind a sofa.

Use an old Amazon echo dot and a 3.5mm to rca cable. You can set that up with Pandora, Spotify, or Amazon Music and ask Alexa to play whatever you want.

Can anyone tell me what I need to hook two of my old Boston Acoustics speakers up to my laptop? Use case is really just conference call audio and light music listening.

You could use this amplifier, some speaker wire to hook the speakers to the amp, then a RCA to 3.5mm cable to connect the laptop's headphone out to the amplifier.

Answering my own question- I ended up running all four speakers in parallel to the two channels works like a charm. I think it reduced it to 4 ohms, but still plenty of power. Loving this little amp.

Unless the op-amp is broken or total trash quality, it's virtually impossible to hear the difference. The distortion from speaker cones is 1000000x higher than that of an op-amp. People roll op-amps FOR FUN, no other reason. 1/3 of the time, it even creates circuit resonances which when measured, objectively degrades sound quality, but even then people can't really hear that outside of test tones.

"But 75W per channel at 8 Ω is still really good for an amp of this size and cost, it is similar to most low end receivers that cost $300 to $600 (Denon AVR-S760H for example)"

But you can get an avr from
Denon/Yamaha/etc with way more features, like phono inputs, and often way more amplifier channels by either stopping by local thrift stores or shopping at goodwill.com for under $50. Most have a several day return policy on electronics. I literally have a stack of avr's because I couldn't resist them at that price. Lol. Some may not have remotes but most can be used with a $6 universal remote. These AVR's usually lack hdmi and cost $1000+ when new, but ppl give them away when they upgrade. My thrift store avr stack includes 2 Denon, 3 Yamahas, 1 Sony ES, and a Marantz slimline. The most expensive was $35. Just the other day I scored an entire audio setup: Definitive tech sub, center, and two bookshelf speakers, a Yamaha avr and matching Yamaha 5 disc changer for $30!!! There's no remote and the Yamaha AVR's display is dim, but that's common on these older yahamas. Lots of higher end stereo receivers from Yamaha today don't even have displays. Lol. ✌🏼

How do you connect your sub to this?
my sub has high-level inputs, so I just run speaker wire from it to the posts on the back of the amp. So each amp post has two speaker wires connected to it- one going to a speaker, one to the sub. Works great

You would need a couple of adapters from amazon. male 3.5mm to female coaxial rca. But, like I said before, the only amp that I've found with a true sub-out, is the Arylic b50 se.
you don't need adapters, many subs have high level inputs which take speaker wire and do not require a dedicated sub-out post on the amp

It's interesting it shows that is a frequently returned item on Amazon. I can't tell if its DOA or it doesn't do what people thought it would or what.
