Shipping a 32V 5A power supply while advertising 2x300W output is what is called ‘caught with pants down your ankles’. In more clear language; a blatant lie.Seems the SNR is on track with the manufacturer specs;
However, 300W@4 ohm... not even remotely close.TB10D - Fosi Audio
TB10D 2 Channel Class D Power Amplifier Bass you can feel, a mid-range that is crisp and clear, and a high that is sharp and precise. Fosi Audio products deliver exactly what you need to hear without fail. Shop Now The Fosi Audio TB10D is a class D amplifier designed to give you the mostwww.fosiaudio.com
The Fosi one has more power though, so I guess it depends on what your priorities are. Good to have options, in any case.It's 100€ here which is the same price as the SMSL DA 6 that measures a lot better, has a screen, EQ settings, a remote and looks better
That has become a norm in this class. If they tell the truth while others don't, it will cost them sales.Shipping a 32V 5A power supply while advertising 2x300W output is what is called ‘caught with pants down your ankles’. In more clear language; a blatant lie.
So. I could get over 100 of those for the mentioned so called high amp.I'm sure quality control can be an issue at this end of the price bracket, and can foresee a situation where a manufacturer sent item is of perfect performance while someone buying from Amazon may have received a dud.
Thank you for the review, @amirm.I am going to recommend the Fosi Audio TB10D amplifier.
Add the PSU as that’s normally part of a power amplifier.This amp is only 5 x 3 x 1 inches. That's astounding for the power output it has and the price.
I gave context in the review: "If you need an amplifier for secondary use (bedroom, workshop, etc.), the TB10D is a very good candidate for no more money than one or two dinners!"Thank you for the review, @amirm.
But to what end is your recommendation?
During inflationary (or recessionary) times, it can be "recommended' to go w/cheaper or non name-branded items because food is a necessity.
I find using similar justification for your recommendation, for this otherwise mediocre (yet inexpensive) amp, odd.
I will see if I can test and report back. Long time ago I had a pop test for headphone amps. I can resurrect if there is enough interest.I tried out the Fosi TB10A and BT30D last year and I believe they both had a pop when when powering down from the power supply and leaving the switch on (the A07 does not pop). I'd be curious to know if this one pops.
Great, thanks!I will see if I can test and report back. Long time ago I had a pop test for headphone amps. I can resurrect if there is enough interest.

Even if it is the norm as Amir said, is the PSU the limiting factor for these TPA3255-based amp? Would I get “moar powa” with a 48V (max. indicated on the rear) 350W PSU?Shipping a 32V 5A power supply while advertising 2x300W output is what is called ‘caught with pants down your ankles’.

From what I've seen, they generally quote the maximum power the chipamp is capable of on the datasheet.Even if it is the norm as Amir said, is the PSU the limiting factor for these TPA3255-based amp? Would I get “moar powa” with a 48V (max. indicated on the rear) 350W PSU?
Device "reviewed" by Cheapaudioman some months ago and he absolutely trashed it.
Add the PSU as that’s normally part of a power amplifier.
That's actually not a bad idea. I imagine many peeps would love to have that compactness and simplicity on their desktop.Soon, they'll build the whole amplifier into the SMPS supply and you'll just get a volume control in a matchbox on your desk...
