audible / loud clicking sounds with when music is paused
This little box has lots of great features, and when the music is playing everything works as it should. Unfortunately in-between songs, or when music is paused, there are loud clicking sounds. I think it is probably an issue with discharging power that is flowing through the unit- perhaps it is jumping some circuits and bleeding through.I tried this in a couple of speaker setup to 100% verify that it is the amp itself. When replacing the amp with a much larger (older) amp I had the problem is completely gone.I was pretty disappointed and returned the unit. That said, I might consider it if you have a need for a cheap 2.1 solution for an area that is rarely used, like outdoor speakers, and you want the ability to control the bass, treble, and sub all from the face of the unit rather then something overly complicated.

Workable small 2.1 channel amp, with room for improvement
I purchased this amp to drive a pair of floor standing speakers and an active sub connected to my TV. Although this amp works for this purpose, it still has room for improvement. If you're looking for something to drive a pair of speakers and a sub, this amp is for you. If you're expecting brand name performance, look elsewhere.Here are my observations...<<Good>>1. Size: The amp is tiny. It sits in the gap between my TV and the TV stand.2. Battery included: The remote ships with the battery installed.<<Bad>>1. Underpowered power supply: The description claims 50x2+100 watts. However, the power supply is rated for [email protected], which is just over 100 watts. There is no way the amp can deliver 50x2+100 watts with this power supply.2. Engrish manual: The included manual is poorly written. Plus, where is the manual? It's almost 2021, the expectation is to be able to view the PDF version of the manual online before the purchase. I scanned and attached the manual for anyone interested.3. Incorrect binding post spacing: The speaker output binding posts are spaced too close to each other, so dual banana plugs can't be used.4. Last mode: This amp forgets the last mode when the power is cycled. So, regardless of which mode was used last, it'll always turn on in Bluetooth mode. This is annoying if the amp is used primary for the aux input.5. Knob hard to turn: The knobs are placed too close to each other, so it's difficult to grab the knob.6. Click noise: As others have noted, there is a click noise when the audio sourced is paused/muted. On my particular setup, it's audible, but not very noticeable.

Awful bluetooth audio lag, popping sounds when using the "Aux" input.
I'm using this amp to drive some bookshelf speakers for my PC. If I use the Aux (RCA) input, there is audible popping in the speakers when no sound is being pushed out. I have tried multiple different devices and cables with no success. There isn't any popping with the bluetooth input, but the audio lag is INSANE with bluetooth as the output. Not sure how to fix it, or if it can be fixed at all.

Underpowered.
The listed power ratings are for 4ohm speakers only. Most home speakers are 8ohm which means this amp will only push 25-50W not 50-100W. 8ohm speakers are normally found in car audio only.To power even the most basic sub-satellite system (6.5" sub, two 3" satellites), you'll need twice the power this thing can push at 8ohms.

Works great!
Works great for my bedroom surround. Only issue is the small remote. I wish I could program my tv or my fire stick remote to control the volume. Powering a passive install sub and two ceiling speakers and they sound fantastic.

Decent, but could be better.
This is ok. The main volume is adjustable only with the remote. It sounds good, but doesn't go very loud, no matter how many times I press the Vol up button. I bought it to power some speakers and a small sub in my egg chair. Not sure if it will accomplish that yet. Thinking about trying to return it.

Great little amp with Subwoofer drive.
Bought this amp because it has a tuneable subwoofer drive. I had some bookshelf speakers that had separate wiring for the bass speakers. Put those base speaker wires on the amp subwoofer channel. Works great!

Worth it
While I ended up returning it because it didn’t work for my configuration, it seems very well made and the sound it puts out was awesome.
