S.M.S.L A50 PRO HiFi Power Amplifier, High/Low Pass F, 2.1-Channel, Infineon's MA12070P Chip, Bluetooth 5.0/USB/Optical/HDMI/AUX input Passive subwoofer with adjustable volume, with Remote Control

Very well constructed for the price and compact as well, I was using a digital amp with analogue controls, this amp is digital all the way with the very intuitive single rotary encoder knob and the three digit display. Once you get to know the different display menu modes, tweaking with just the front knob is a breeze. The various eq modes, bass, treble, tone presents, high and low pass filters and subwoofer volume are quite subtle to my recollection but it's well worth spending a bit of time tweaking them to your tastes as the amp has virtually no problems filling my listening room with a very balanced 3d stereo image soundstage whether using the excellent bluetooth receiver or the optical in. I have very little use for the usb dac in, 3.5mm jack in and the HDMI ARC, I have a 200 cd changer, media streamer and a linear tracking turntable connected to an Arylic BP50 preamp feeding the S.M.S.L. via an optical cable . Then out of the stereo L & R and subwoofer outputs to a pair of Wharfedale Modus Cubes and a matching pair of Mission 73ps passive subwoofers. The remote control is a nice addition and it seems to work well but my room is so small I can just reach over to the amp and use the rotary controller. I bought this amp because it had a passive sub output and an optical in - these and everything else works flawlessly - a great little modern amp for a bargain price.

Perfect alternative to a soundbar for 2.1 setup. It's easy to convert a subwith a broken amp into a passive sub, but it's not easy to find a 2.1 amplifier with a remote control. This meets that perfectly. It links up easy with my TV over hdmi. It looks sleek. It is powerful enough for normal volume levels. Yeah the settings are a bit weird but you only need to figure those out once. It lets my partner use the 2.1 setup without having to fiddle about with settings. Bluetooth connection works well. It's not there to provide chest shaking bass but hey thats not what I bought it for! Make sure to set the audio format to PCM on your TV to get proper 2 channel audio output sent to the amp, and make sure to plug into the ARC (or eARC) labelled hdmi port on your TV. Works a charm!

I bought this for a present for my husband so this is his review. For it's price this DAC amplifier is very good. I replaced a massive Onkyo TN414 AV amplifier with this teeny device. The sound quality is very good and plenty loud enough. The remote control is a bit slow. The number of inputs is excellent for the price. I do however have one issue that would not affect most users. I am an amateur radio operator (HAM) and this DAC produces severe RF interference across most of the bands from the speaker cables. It should adhere to UK interference compliance but quite obviously doesn't. I have emailed S.M.S.L but have not yet received a reply.

Used it to connect two Ruark shelf speakers to my TV via audio cable/ Line in Amazing improvement in sound quality ( over TV internal speakers) Also easily connects to my iPhone via Bluetooth. Remote works well. Great value for the price (haven’t used the subwoofer connection) very happy with it

You need to buy an optical cable connector, not included. Try Argos £8.99. Very small device, so connecting speakers is a bit of a faff. £90 is reasonable money for this gadget. Sound OK, but not great from the Sony TV, not very loud. The issue may be the source, as it is going into a pair of quality B&W speakers. Output certainly better than the awful SonyTV output. Might get a sub-woofer, which this also takes.

Wow what a cracking bit of kit. It's tiny but packs a punch. I've had many different av amps from onkyo, Yamaha, Sony but was never happy with the audio for music. I've got this amp wired to JBL STAGE A170 floor standing speakers and couldn't ask for more. Very happy with it. Streaming from a s22 over Bluetooth sounds great. ARC connected to a LG TV works great. The only minus is the remote is not very responsive. I doubt you'll find anything better for the money.

Great sounding amp, I purchased (AS NEW), but arrived with a missing DIGIAL PORT COVER. So the cable does not click into place. (Works if I hold the optical cable in place) so the device is fine, probably the person who returned it broke the port cover. Reached out to the company but zero reply! I cannot be bothered with the hassle to return so will maybe use one day if I ever purchase a second pair of book speaker, but with analogue cables.

Flexible amp. HDMI arc links to tv (perfect lip-synch) and optical links to WiiM pro and SMSL SU1 dac. Streaming from iPhone is excellent. Originally bought as a sound bar alternative but linked to WiiM the amp takes on general hi-fi duties in the longe. Plenty of power from this amp and it has transformed my listening experience for relatively small costs. Recommended.

Kupiłem ten wzmacniacz ponieważ ma opcję podłączenia pasywnego subwoofera. Niestety okazało się, że 100 watów mocy jaką się chwali SMSL A50 Pro być może jest dostępna, ale przy oporności 2 Ohm, więc podłączając 4 lub 8 Ohm subwoofer nie uzyskacie z niego prawie nic. Mój sub przy maksymalnej głośności wzmacniacza wydaje zaledwie cichy pomruk. Ze względu na to będę chyba zwracał ten wzmacniacz. Kolejny minus to regulacja bass treble. Nie działa ona tak jak niezależna korekcja niskich i wysokich tonów, a raczej jako "wilk eq", a więc kiedy dodajemy treble - znika bas, kiedy dodajemy basu - znika góra. Najlepiej zostawić te ustawienia na zero. Pomijając wady sprzęt brzmi całkiem dobrze i nie brakuje mu mocy we współpracy z głośnikami stereo. Plusem jest wejście HDMI eArc do podłączenia TV. U mnie to działa. Gdyby nie niska moc wyjścia na subwoofer byłby to bardzo dobry wzmacniacz w swojej klasie cenowej.

Una equipo de muy buena fidelidad y sonido. Notas claras y de excelente calidad. El de odificador que trae integrado es de muy buena calidad. Lo conecte a unas bocinas monitor de 8 ohms y las llena completamente. No llega a calentarse con muchas horas de trabajo. Lo recomiendo ampliamente. No es el primer amplificador que tengo y realmente me sorprendió.

Werkt perfect. Wordt dagelijks in combinatie met een TV.

Ho comprato questo amplificatore per collegare la mia Smart TV Panasonic alle casse che avevo della Mordaunt Short, ho dovuto utilizzare il collegamento Bluetooth perché il collegamento HDMI era un po' disturbato (Non so se era l'uscita della TV Oppure l'ingresso nell'amplificatore): in Bluetooth devo dire che funziona perfettamente e il segnale è pulitissimo ! consiglio l'acquisto!!!

Skip the Arylic and buy this! Worked for me. HDMI arc, out of the box, plugged in, set Hisense TV audio output to arc and PCM or something, TV speakers off. Done. Only had it for a day but it works great sounds great. Running this to power 2 dayton audio b40s. Simple and small, sounds waaaaaaayy better than the TV speaks. Will add a sub later. The Arylic seemed nice but the HDMI arc did not work, the audio was at 100 and you could barely hear it.
