Etonna
Pour avoir essay dans le pass d’autres SMSL nettement moins convainquant sur sur le rendu sonore, j’ai vraiment t bluff par les premires coutes : combin mes vieilles KEF Cresta 3, le rendu est trs similaire ce que produisent mes KEF LS50w qui sont pour moi une rfrence. Il y a bien moins d’entres, le wireless n’est qu’en Bluetooth mais franchement cet appareil est tonnant, surtout ce tarif.
Toller Verstärke
Ich habe den Verstrker an 2 Boxen angeschlossen um Musik ber das Smartphone abzuspielen. Die Bluetooth Verbindung ist absolut stabil und fr den Preis ist Qualitt echt top! Mit guten Lautsprechern kann man so ganz einfach Musik ber Handy oder Tablet abspielen. Die Fernbedienung funktioniert einwandfrei.
Gedigen BT förstärkare för prise
Anvnder denna lilla BT frstrkare till mina stora gamla Technics SB-X700A hgtalare 8 ohm.
Konstaterade att det lter ver frvntan bra. Denna lilla BT frstrkare rekommenderas absolut.
S.M.S.L SA300
Der kleine Kollege hngt an meinen 2-Wege DIY Schreibtisch Lautsprechern und macht alles richtig, Klang passt, Verarbeitung ist auch super. Bin sehr zufrieden damit, klar eine HiFi Wunder darf man sich nicht erhoffen, wie denn auch, bei dem Preis, dennoch wrde ich sagen das P/L Verhltnis stimmt.
Insgesamt überzeugend, kleine (tolerierbare?) Schwäche
Ich suchte einen kleinen Verstrker fr den (Party-) Keller. Die guten Rezensionen und der attraktive Preis bewogen mich zum Kauf.
Persnliche Erfahrung:
+ Bei weitem krftig genug fr die meisten Anwendungen (fr die Kellerdisco reicht es)
+ Tonqualitt berzeugt
+ Klang vielfltig einstellbar
+ So gut wie kein Eigenrauschen
+ Hochwertige Verarbeitung (gilt auch fr die FB, den Preis bercksichtigend), absolut berzeugend
+ Display-Farbe whlbar
+ Bluetooth-Verbindung einfach herstellbar und stabil
+ Geringe Erwrmung auch bei hherer Leistung, externes Netzteil wurde auch nur lauwarm
+ Die FB funktioniert auch in die Gegenrichtung (Reflexion an weiem Mbel), Strecke ca. 5m
o Bluetooth wird beim Umschalten der Quelle auf AUX oder USB getrennt; das ist mir in dem Fall aber egal
o Winkel fr die FB ist +/- 30 also “ums Eck” geht die Bedienung nicht
o Keine Batterien (AAA) fr die FB beigelegt. Ich hatte keine neuen zur Hand und musste fr einen ersten Test welche aus einer anderen FB ausborgen. Das rechtfertigt noch keinen Punkteabzug. Aber ihr seid gewarnt; dies knnte sonst zur Spabremse werden 😉
– Es kam bereits einmal vor, dass das Gert auf eine Eingabe fr kurze Zeit nicht mehr reagierte (Aus/Ein funktionierte am Gert noch). Ich glaube, es lag daran, dass ich die Knpfe “B” und “C” auf der FB drckte….. Sicher bin ich mir aber nicht. Kam nur einmal vor und war gleich wieder OK. Genauer beschftigte ich mich damit dann nicht mehr, ausfhrliche Tests stehen noch aus. Daher vorerst kein Abzug.
Fazit: Wrde ich wieder kaufen, aus momentaner Sicht (noch ohne ausfhrliche Tests). Kleine Schwchen toleriere ich fr den Preis, daher (noch) alle Punkte.
Amplificatore digitale di qualità!
Decido di acquistarlo dopo aver visto diverse recensioni positive su YouTube e su Amazon . Tutto confermato, la qualit audio veramente buona alti precisi e bassi profondi.io ho delle monitor audio bronze 50, casse piccole ma che per il mio ambiente vanno benissimo . Per ora l’ho utilizzato solo con bluetooth (aptx) e Amazon music base e si sente bene. La comodit del telecomando impagabile (provengo da un amplificatore douk audio g50 che per aumentare il volume dovevo sempre alzarmi).
Per 139 forse qualcosa che suona meglio ci potr anche essere, ma esteticamente questo sa300 molto carino e ben curato.
Consigliatissimo
Wow
Der kleine Verstrker hngt an meinen Needle-Lautsprechern und ist einfach nur gut.
Er ist klein, hat ein klares Design und klingt richtig gut. Ich benutze den analogen Eingang, den Subwoofer-Ausgang und die Bluetooth-Verbindung. Die Fernbedienung funktioniert tadellos und ist formschn.
Einzig das Netzteil streut ein unschnes Pfeifen ein und sollte unbedingt durch etwas Hherwertiges ersetzt werden.
Wer sich mit seiner Liebsten gutstellen will und damit auf ein dickes 19″-Verstrkerschlachtschiff verzichtet, der findet hier zu einem guten Preis eine richtig guten Verstrker ohne Schnickschnack.
cumple lo que vale ,y si es defectuoso,devuélvelo
..hombre leyendo a los comentarios ,el q se cree que va a tener un amplificador profesional por este precio,est mal de la cabeza
Gut, mit einzelnen Schwäche
Allgemein gut, aber
1) erhaltenes Gert hat halb-defekte Streifen auf dem Display
2) merkliche Schwchen <120Hz mit meinen Lautsprechern (Quadral Maxi 440, 4-8Ohm, 100W). Abgesehen davon aber wirklich schn klare Wiedergabe, abgesehen von 3)
3) RCA-Erde ist direkt mit der Netzteilerde verbunden (kein Isolationsverstrker dazwischen), was zu schweren Erdschleifenproblemen fhrt. Musste zum Testen erstmal die Erdung vom SA-300 abkleben (gefhrlich und nicht als Dauerlsung geeignet).
Sapete cosa vi dico Eccezionale.
Spedizione non propio velocissima .
Stupore nell’aprile la scatola . Piccolissimo ben adagiato .. ci sono rimasto un po’ male . Per le dimensioni acceso funzionante con casse numan stupore . Per le mie esigenze un buon suono ottimo con il bluetooth mi piace prezzo buono . Per la qualit che da . Lo consiglio . Senza avere delle pretese .
I upgraded to this from a $20 amplifier omg the sound quality is unbelievable.

Inesperadamente genial
Lo compr debido a las reseas sin esperar demasiado de un producto tan econmico. Me sorprendi enormemente, comparado con mi sistema previo, una consola Allen & Heath como DAC y un home theater Yamaha RX-V520. Ahora puedo escuchar cosas en la msica que nunca haba notado, usando las mismas bocinas. El volumen mximo no es muy alto, pero es ms que suficiente para mi estudio. El sonido es muy agradable y representa sin problemas todas las frecuencias. Lo tengo conectado a una Mac mini M1 mediante el DAC integrado. Funciona muy bien aunque a veces presenta un error en el que se sube ms el nivel de una bocina que el de la otra. Se arregla fcilmente con el Audio Midi Setup.
Hifi Klang, Top.
Klein, fein, gute Meneingabe. Bin berrascht was da fr ein Klang rauskommt.Hab da zwei kleine,Teufel Boxen dran, bin sehr zufrieden.
Pour tout dire, j’avais dj un ampli SMSL, le SA-50 qui fut le premier ampli chinois de classe D dfrayer la chronique des amateurs de hifi. Il fonctionne toujours parfaitement, mais ne propose qu’une entre analogique, un bouton de volume et aucune fonction distance.
Donc j’ai dcid de sauter le pas et d’acheter ce modle pourvu d’une tlcommande, du bluetooth et de plusieurs rglages du son.
Tout d’abord, je ne vois aucune diffrence du point de vue sonore, peut-tre un tout petit peu moins de puissance mais c’est trs convaincant, pourvu que l’on n’utilise pas les effets sonores (mode direct). La puissance est bien l, les aigus prcis, les basses profondes, tout le spectre est prsent. Je ferai un retour plus dtaill aprs plusieurs coutes, mais c’est du SMSL et c’est impressionnant de voir qu’un si petit ampli drive sans problme mes grandes enceintes colonnes.
Pour la tlvision j’ai branch l’ordinateur qui me sert lire les films directement sur la prise USB. Tout fonctionne parfaitement, le DAC prend en charge sans aucun problme.
En revanche, ce qui change la vie, ce sont les fonctions sans fil. La tlcommande, tout d’abord est assez pratique au quotidien. Mais surtout le bluetooth, qui permet d’envoyer directement le son du tlphone ou de la tablette dans l’ampli, sans allumer quoi que ce soit d’autre ni se dplacer.
Great Device
Great amp in combination with my speakers – KEf Q1 and Monitor Audio Bronze BR2.
Used inputs:
iPhone via Bluetooth – good
RCA – connected to my TV via very cheap DAC (25 eur) – works good as well.
Enough power, very good sound, strong bass, perfect EQ options.
Compared with AO200, and didn’t see any difference (my personal opinion). Just for info – AO200 is 280 eur vs 140 eur for SA300.
I definitely recommend this device.
Ottimo amplificatore per PC e TV
Ottimo amplificatore di classe D lo sto usando per un sistema 2.1 per TV e PC per adesso riesce a pilotare dei buoni diffusori e un sub. L’unica cosa che mi ha lasciato perplesso il telecomando che ha dei tasti che non hanno funzioni
I love this amp. Its perfect for a simple little desktop/workstation mid/hi-fi setup. Sound quality is excellent and the low-power mode is exactly what I wanted. I have mine connected directly to my MBP.

Hammer gerät für das Geld
Das ist jetzt der 2. Verstrker den ich von der Firma habe. Ich mchte gar nicht mehr schreiben als das er einfach gut funktioniert! Das Gehuse sieht wertig aus, Fernbedienung ist dabei, Equalizer ist an Bord, Display ist in Ordnung, gert koppeln ist einfach. Ein Pluspunkt ist die kleine Bauform und dafr ausreichend Leistung!
Quality like all smls products.Compact beautiful device,sweet sound.
Best quality ,sound clarity,stage image,sound control
All in limited quantities,not enough for big rooms or demanding loud speakers to drive
Best to pair with a computer/laptop and desk speakers
Its a good compact all in one solution for cheap speakers
I’d say sound quality wise its no better than a cheap AVR IMO and I know most will disagree with me but I’m sticking to that. Its small and its fairly cheap. If paired up with a pair of budget speakers, its fine. If paired up with anything 1K and up for speakers, I think you’ll start to quickly hear that its nothing special.
IMO the old Tripath based chip amps like the 2020 or 2024 chips sound better as long as its on fairly efficient speakers.
So having said that I’m keeping it as a toy but definitely dont spend more than $200 on this.
Funciona bien y a un precio razonable
El producto funciona bien y su precio es razonable. Con los parlantes que lo us tiene buena ecualizacin, sobre todo la de la marca, aunque se siente que le faltan buenos bajos. Quiz con el uso del Subwoofer mejore.
Very impressed with the solid design and clean, clear sound. The passive Sub-out has proven to be a real game-changer for me. I highly recommend this product!

For the price - unbeatable!
I’m a bit of an audiophile and I needed some sound for a vacation property I was renting for the winter. After much research, I ordered this and matched it with some Kanto YU 4 inch passive 4 ohm speakers. Yes, my reference system sounds better but at 5 times the price it should. That said, my reference system is not 5 times better from a sound point of view. The SMSL sa300 provides clear and detailed sound, base is quite impressive (this is with the unit paying in direct mode, with no enhancements). Volume streaming from my phone was excellent and easily got up to an uncomfortable level… Note that the unit pushes 80 watts at 4 ohms so I have to be careful to not over drive the speakers which are rated at 70 watts.
Bottom line – great sound, great price, highly recommended. The only downside is it would nice if it had more inputs but if that is your jam – look at the SMSL AD18. If you need something for an auxilliary application, or just have a small space to fill with sound. this is the ticket.
Qualità/prezzo top!
Collegato alla tv per pilotare 2 casse a 2 vie artigianali e un sub attivo, svolge egregiamente il suo compito. Abbastanza potente, senza distorsione e senza fruscii: sono rimasto quasi deliziato. Ovvio, l’alta fedelt un’altra cosa, ma per i soldi spesi posso affermare di essere soddisfatto al 100%.
Ottimo prodotto. Consigliatissimo.
Confezione curata e prodotto arrivato in condizioni impeccabili. Collegato a un DAC Topping D10s e a dei diffusori Elac Debut 2.0 B6.2, suona molto bene. Silenziosissimo, i watt dichiarati sembrano esserci tutti, ottima dinamica e suono pulito senza particolari enfasi. Dal telecomando si possono effettuare tutte le regolazioni. Vale sicuramente il triplo di quanto costa.
Muy buena calidad
Saca muy buena calidad de sonido. Sin ruidosos de fondo. y bastante potencia.
Me a sorprendido sobre todo x el precio.
Toller DAC Verstärke
Klasse DAC Verstrker.
Mehr fr das Geld bekommt man nirgendwo.
Absolute Empfehlung. Treibt meine SVS Ultra ohne Probleme an. Nachbarn beschweren sich tglich und es liegen mehrere Vorladungen vom Gericht vor.
Wrde ich jedem empfehlen.
Beachtet nur, dass der SA-300 keinen optischen Ausgang hat. Wenn ihr diesen braucht holt euch AD – 18.
Great little amp that sounds good and has enough power to drive my floor standers to respectable volumes. Only downside is that this amp doesn't have an optical line in. Big downside if you're using this to connect to your TV.

I don't know how something this good is only $140. I'm using it to play Tidal on a desktop computer in the workshop/workout room. Drives a pair of Elac bookshelf speakers no problem, but I wouldn't ask it to do any more. DAC sound quality is as good as my 11-yr old PS Audio Digital Link, $650 at the time, plus this has the benefit of an EQ.

Great little amplifie
I have 2 of these amplifiers (one for each of my 2 computers) and am very happy with them.
The SMSL SA300 delivers clean crisp sound and has plenty of volume for my purposes.
It also has a lot of nice features like treble and bass adjustment, screen color etc. The USB connectivity works great, as does the RCA inputs – the choice is yours.
I highly recommend this product.
Sound quality fantastic. No noise from amplifier. Package arrived early, after two days of playing sound opened up and detail became clearer. Look and sounds great playing flac files along with streaming. Using Gallo acoustics micro se with 8" sub.

Guter kleiner Verstärke
Sehr schner Verstrker, schade dass es ihn nicht in wei oder Silber gibt.
Gepaart mit meinen Q acoustics 3030i macht er richtig Spa bei guten Reserven. Die Fernbedienung funktioniert ebenfalls super. Das Display ist gut ablesbar.
Ich bin sehr zufrieden.
It surprises me how how it sounds, I think it is a great value for the money. And, it is very small.

Klang Top, Preis/Leistung Top, Always on Display unnötig.
Hatte teurere Gerte mit denen ich weniger zufrieden war. Er rauscht nicht und die Bedienung ist simpel. Schade finde ich, dass das Display durchgehend leuchtet. Warum schaltet man es nicht ab, wenn es immer das selbe anzeigt? Selbst eine Regelung der Helligkeit gibt es nicht. Es steht immer auf 100% Helligkeit, nur die Farbe des Displays lsst sich einstellen. Hardware und Software-Lautstrke sind unabhngig voneinander einstellbar.
Using it as a small room Bluetooth system, with 86 dB bookshelf speakers. plenty of power and Headroom! Bluetooth is Rock Solid and stable. has good tone flexibility, is Smooth sounding, and runs cool. for the price it can't be beaten! I'm satisfied with my purchase. (let's just see about its longevity)

Saubere Höhen/Mitten, schwammiger Bass
Fr meinen Zweck passt das Produkt. Per USB am PC. Kompakt. Kein Rauschen. Saubere in Hhen und Mitten. Bass wirkt wie rausgefiltert. Bei starker Anhebung wird der Zudem unsauber. Kann mit anderen weniger anspruchsvolle Boxen besser sein. Auerdem kann man theoretisch einen aktiven Subwoofer parallel betreiben. Ich behalte den Verstrker.
Size DOES NOT Matte
I wasn’t sure whether this would drive a large set of mission floorstanding speakers but it sure does!! Saves space, sounds good and loud enough for a small to medium room!!
Great amplifier. Very small but very powerful. Excellent audio quality. Class D technology is improving a lot and this amp utilises it exceptionally well. I bought this for my office but I’m going to buy a second one to replace my vintage Marantz amp in the lounge room. Bass and treble controls are delicate and very well balanced/crossed over. Driverless DAC was recognised immediately by my PC and allowed individual channel control in device settings. Running for extended periods at high volume and this little brick was ice cold. This wants to make me try more SMSL products.
Très bon amplificateur, recommande énormément!
Excellent amplificateur, le son est de tres bonne qualit meme avec le bluetooth, facile d’utilisation, prend trs peu de place et ne chauffe pas du tout. Seul petit inconvnient est qu’il y a un petit dlai de quelques millisecondes entre le son et l’image par Bluetooth.
Tiny amp, Good sound
I have this amp plugged into an Alexa as a source and a pair of half decent Tannoy bookshelf speakers. Bearing in mind the source, the sound is actually pretty good. Its certainly loud enough for our needs in the kitchen, at any rate, and fairly clear with a decent bass and treble response. For a small space, I would definitely recommend this amp.
Class D doesn’t suck !
Wanted a small amp to give life to my old passive speakers. At first, I bought cheaper Fosi amp for shy to 100$ and it was awful to say the least. Sounded like nails on a chalkboard through a distortion pedal. Decided to look further and searched a bit until I found the SMSL line. For twice the price of the previous garbage, Oh My God!!!
This is by no means a 5000$ amplifier but you get a hell of a bang for your buck. BT connection is very clear and precise for a wireless connection. Direct line in connection if just fine with an IPod. Haven’t tried the internal DAC but this thing shines when paired with an external preamp/Dac. This amp isn’t as warm sounding as an analog unit but as a secondary sound system I can’t say much wrong about it. It drives a pair of V2 Atoms and a PDR-8 sub like a champ.
Sub-out doesn’t seem to be a true low freq out as it doesn’t cut the bass signal in the main out but for the price, it’s worth tweaking a little with the settings. Cut the bass on the amp, adjust the Sub’s cutoff to your liking and set it’s volume accordingly.
Now to see if this thing will still be up and running in a few months, but overall, I’m having a blast !!
Excellent sound quality
I use this in my home office with a pair of Q Acoustics Concept 20 speakers. My previous office amp was a NAD D3020 which died on me.
After plenty of research I decided to go with the SA300 and I have no regrets. It’s perfect for an office-based setup – sound quality is excellent via bluetooth though I’m sure this could be improved further using a dedicated DAC, but I don’t think it’s necessary. It amazes me how they can cram in so much functionality and performance for ~140.
Brilliant unit, simple, small but sound nice :)
Well built unit and is powering two of my AE floor standers. Sound is solid and non-distorted even at high volumes. Using it with a remote bluetooth link from my PC at the moment and well chuffed with it.
While it have various options for sound configurations I preferred their own proprietary setting. Nice small form factor and drove the Wharfdale Diamond 12.0 speakers and a subwoofer just fine.

Very good!
1) Remote works like a charm
2) Sound quality is great
Don’t need the Bluetooth but didn’t find similiar product without it. But the Bluetooth works fine and no sync problem with my Philips TV.
Sound quality is clean. Zero noise. I lack a bit of dynamic sound and maybe the bass is a bit more blurry compared to my old Denon 680.
If your looking for a small amp with good sound quality and don’t want to spend more than 2000 euro this is the one!
Sharp and Clea
If you like a clear, sharp and detailed sound, like most class D amps, then this is the better of the bunch.
If you prefer a warmer, fuller sound then I’d stay clear of this and stick to class A/B amps, albeit they are larger.
Or go with one of the hibrid class D amps with tubes.
The sub output is a nice touch.
Buena capacidad, y calidad
Muy buena calidad y un mao que cabe en cualquier espacio, me gustara que incluyera una entrada de audio ptica, por lo dems est bie
Small package, big powe
I was debating whether or not to get this one, or the loxjie A30 (same parent company). I decided on this unit as I didnt need the better DAC from the loxjie, as I was using a Schiit modius for my independent DAC. They both have the same amp chip so there’s not many other differences for me to opt for the more expensive A30.
These are powering my KEF q150, which sound Amazing.
Producto decente
Lleg en tiempo.
Buen producto por el precio.
Pensando en comprar un dac (topping e30)
Excelle
I absolutely recommend this. If you have very hard to drive speakers, it will be borderline, aside from that, functionality, build and convenience, this is a superb product. I recommend an external DAC though to get the best from it.
This little guy is a beast, works amazing with my polk speakers. My favorite thing about this is that it has direct input sound balance (no more choosing ‘rock’ ‘pop’ or any horrible presets)

Got these to power a pair of Klipsch R41M to replace some Edifier 1850s with the T5 Edifier powered sub (70 RMS). As a DAC, using an Audioengine D1. The Audioengine + edifiers, good audio, quite detailed (better than the Klipsch in a sense) but the sub never really sounded great. Powered on the Smsl, hooked up the Audioengine, and boom, quite a big difference. Louder in highs and the sub came alive. Quite pleased with the setup. No hissing. No clipping (it's a desk set up so don't go higher than 70% power). Def worth it if you have a DAC already and don't want to spend 400-750 on a Marantz or Denon type

Mini, oui, mais il fait le maximum.
Utilis pour amplifier un bon lecteur CD et un branchement micro usb de l’ordinateur, sans oublier le Bluetooth avec le tlphone, la puissance est suffisante et le son trs bon. Son encombrement minimum est galement un atout.
Nachdem ich bei MM einen Onkyo TX696 zurckgegeben habe,
dachte ich mal diesen SMSL zu Testen.
Am PC angeschlossen bringt er meine Magnat-Lautsprecher zum klingen.
Bin vom Klang total begeistert, ohne den Klang einzustellen, wozu auch.
Absolut der Hammer.
Einstellungs-Empfehlung am PC/Notebook bei USB-Verbindung:
Systemsteuerung // Sound // Wiedergabe // aktives Gert auswhlen ( am besten bei laufender Musik) //
Eigenschaften // 2 Kanal, 32 Bit, 384 khz auswhlen und mit OK besttigen.
Audio-Eigenschaft dann auch 32Bit mit 384kHz ausgewhlt.
Grand son à petit prix
Coupl des Eltax monitor III, je redcouvre la hifi sous rserve d’avoir une source correcte, Qobuz, des FLAC, TIDAL…etc
Fantastic little amp
I normally use a Cyrus Pre-X preamp with 2 of Cyrus Smartpowers in mono, 1 per speaker. I recently purchased a Topping E30 DAC for use with my iPhone and Tidal, Qobuz music services. iPhones allow bit-perfect through the lightning connection to USB. I heard a clear, better difference between this and my existing methods. But my Cyrus set up is overkill, cost 2200 when new and I’m hardly using them to their full potential anymore (kids and wife).
I looked for a smaller/cheaper alternative until such time I could revert back to my Cryus amps with floorstanding speakers. I currently use Wharfedale Diamond 9.1s.
I have always steered away from digital amps due to their not so good sound quality. I have to admit the last time I listened to one was a good 10 years ago. After several weeks of looking and listening to reviews online I saw the SMSL SA300 and for the cost thought I’d give it a go.
My speakers are 6ohm and this amp specs suggest I’d get 60wpc at 6ohm based on the figures supplied for 8ohm & 4ohm. I set this amp up with my newly acquired Raspberry Pi with Allo DigiOne HAT (running Volumio), Topping E30. Total cost 560, exc cables. My previous setup with Cyrus amps and cd player, B&W floorstanding speakers cost from new 4500. I did have high expectations.
How wrong I was.
After a few hours of use (not fully ran in) I could hear a clear difference in sound quality. Even with just 16/44.1 music. Clean, taught and deep sounding. Neutral in terms of neither warm or cold sounding. To compare I hooked up my Cyrus preamp and one Smartpower amp in stereo to match similar watts per channel and I was amazed (to my ears) this SMSL SA300 sounded better. I’m still not sure how this can be but in my opinion I prefer this over my Cyrus setup.
I have hooked up my RPi via USB to this amps USB input and it sounds good but I prefer the external DAC I’m using.
Just as an amplifier this thing rocks.
FYI – most people will only use 1 to 2 watts of an amps power based on speakers sensitivity.
My Diamond 9.1s have a sensitive of 86dB @ 1Watt @ 1 meter. I sit about 2.5 meters away and like listening at 75 to 78dB. In rough terms this is approx 1.5watts of amp power if the sound level was constant. As music is not a constant, then this is why you need more watts. More head room. 60wpc is a good number and this amp at 6ohms gives my speakers a good chance to deliver. And deliver they do. It could be better but for the kit I have the sound quality is great.
Now, play some 24/192 songs and this thing sounds fantastic.
If you understand HiRes music and what the sampling rate actually means you’ll understand what to listen for.
Science lesson. A smple rate of 44.khz/second is essentially 22.05khz left and 22.05khz right channel and relates to the number of times a audio sample is taken which forms a song or any audio recording. It doesn’t relate directly to how high in frequency we can hear (20khz when young 14-16khz when you’re around 40).
If the sample rate is 192khz then more samples are taken per second which makes the song smoother, seamless, cleaner. Sample rates and bit depths do help music sound better but it is more important in the mastering process to acquire the best recording. A good quality mastered 16/44.1 will sound better than a poorly mastered 24/192 song.
Streaming services such as Tidal, Qobuz etc hopefully obtain the best mastered tracks possible, regardless of being hires.
Potenza in dimensioni ridotte.
Per chi possiede amplificatori classici risulta difficile capire la potenza emanata da un amplificatore di questo tipo, dalle dimensioni ridottissime. Veramente tanta forza in pochissimo spazio occupato, nella mia libreria manco sembra che ci sia. Il suono pulito e potente, almeno rispetto alle mie esigenze. Avrei preferito qualche opzione di settaggio audio in pi con un equalizzatore maggiormente controllabile e non solo curve preimpostate, un ingresso line in in pi non mi sarebbe dispiaciuto. Ma dato anche il costo non eccessivo direi che se non si degli esigenti audiofili l’ampli merita le 5 stelle.
I’m very impressed with this unit. I’m a musician, and my standards are pretty night. It’s small, but it powers my bookshelf speakers and subwoofer perfectly. Sound quality is excellent. The volume control is thoughtfully designed for fine-tuning. My only criticism is that the tone/EQ control should be on the unit. Nevertheless, highly recommended. (No compensation received for writing this review - I just like the thing.)

Have it hooked up as the default speaker for my Google mini home, and also connect it to my laptop and phone via bluetooth (or through the mini). Great sound through my Polk Bookshelf speakers.

Parfait petit ampli / DAC
Aprs deux mois d’utilisation, je dois dire que je suis ultra satisfait.
Utilis en mode USB sur un PC fixe (je n’ai pas utilis le cble d’origine, certains avis font tat de problmes avec celui-ci ; j’ai tout de suite utilis un autre cble mieux blind) avec deux Dali Alteco C1 en mode “enceintes PC” (coute moins d’un mtre des enceintes).
Le son est clair et prcis, parfait pour la musique (tous genres) que j’coute toute la journe en travaillant.
Compact and Powerful
For the size and weight of the SA300, this thing is awesome! I’ve only used this for Bluetooth so far, but I haven’t had any issues. No hiss, no buzz, just good listening.
This thing is great, especially for the price!
Super produi
Petit et trs bonne qualit sonore alimente mes anceintes 8 ohms 10/140 watts sans problme
Piccolo mostriciattolo in classe D
Suono morbido e pi godibile rispetto al mio onkio integrato. Suonano in maniera diversa con diffusori Chiario Delphinus, ho notato meno affaticamento nell’ascolto prolungato. un piccolo mostriciattolo che puoi collocare ovunque.
Sehr gutes Preis-/Leistungsverhältnis und macht Freude.
Das Kleinod kam gut verpackt und schnell aus den Amazon-Lagern. Das Gehuse und auch das Netzteil machen einen soliden und wertigen Eindruck. Im Dauerbetrieb werden beide nicht mal handwarm. Klanglich macht der Kleine an meinen Q Acoustics 3020i richtig Spa, kann aber meinem 35 Jahre alten NAD 3020 nicht das Wasser reichen. Der Steinzeitverstrker arbeitet die Instrumente einer Jazz-Aufnahme doch feiner heraus und die Hhen wirken weniger aufdringlich. Nach meinem Dafrhalten ist der SA300 aber ein guter Einstieg in die Class-D Welt und sein Geld allemal wert.
P.S: Der DAC funktionierte unter ARCH-Linux sofort. Allerdings knnte bei dieser Betriebsart ein bisschen Kabel-Voodoo helfen. Erst als ich das Beiliegende gegen ein hochwertiges, mehrfach geschirmtes Kabel tauschte, sgten die Gitarren von Slayers “Dead Skin Mask” nicht mehr strend am Trommelfell 😉
Powers my bookshelf speakers just fine, and gets decently loud too.

Für das Geld okay
Ich kann die Leute hier nicht verstehen, die meinen das Ding wre klanglich so extrem gut und man wrde keinen unterschied zu greren Vollverstrkern hren. Das kann man definitiv nicht vergleichen und gerade luft er nur am PC mit Regallautsprechern. Hier hre ich schon einen deutlichen unterschied, aber vorher hing auch ein Rotel Verstrker an den Lautsprechern. Fr das Geld aber ziemlich gut, gerade weil der Verstrker sehr klein ist und auf dem Schreibtisch kein Platz wegnimmt.
Der kann was und ist wirklich sehr unauffällig
Das ist ein Produkt das ich gerne nochmals kaufe. Auf dem Papier sehen die Werte zwar eher ein wenig zurckhaltend aus, jedoch kann er auch etwas krftigere Boxen ohne Probleme sehr klar und definiert ansteuern. Wenn das eher kleine Boxen sind bleibt ja noch die Mglichkeit einen Subwoofer anzuklemmen. Die Bedienung ist selbsterklrend und alle Funktionen sind am Gert verfgbar oder eben ber die Fernbedienung, die ebenfalls sehr gut funktioniert. Das Design ist unauffllig und die Gre tuscht. Selbst an zwei Boxen die bis 125W belastbar sind, bleibt bei 5/6 Lautstrke das Gehuse recht khl und das Netzteil scheint ausreichend dimensioniert. Ich hoffe auf eine lange Haltbarkeit.
This is my sixth or seventh chip amp and it's a knockout. On SQ it contends favorably with the TPA325x which are the best I've experienced, and it adds features like remote control and sub-out. The Bluetooth (which I seldom use) is the best I've ever seen and the multiplicity of inputs is sure to please all. It's not the cheapest chip amp out there but it's definitely one of the best.

Encore une belle trouvaille
Un ampli de trs grande qualit un prix drisoire. Difficile de trouver meilleur rapport qualit prix. Branch en USB sur mon ordinateur et quip d’un caisson de basses et de deux enceintes Q acoustics, le son est tout simplement superbe.
Surprisingly good sound quality with this little amp even at high volume playback via line-in or BT audio streaming.

Fantastico!!
Por los comentarios no estaba seguro de pedirlo, pero lo ped y cuando lo trajeron (tardaron solo dos das) me sorprendi mucho para bien; es genial, ninguna queja sino todo al contrario, y suena de maravilla.
