Functionality at a low price
I bought this to use as a radio in the garage. This is a great receiver with a lot of things that it can do, but you need to keep your expectations at a reasonable level. Everything works, but it's very confusing to navigate the radio without the remote. Luckily with the remote you just type the station you want and it goes there. The radio seems to pick up stations very well without any static.If it can save stations to memory, I have no clue how to set it up. I couldn't find anything in the instructions that mention it.The Bluetooth works great. There is no passcode so you just connect and it starts playing. It sounds very good even with the cheapest outdoor speakers on Amazon.I think for the price you're paying, If you are willing to deal with something that is a little quirky, this is a great deal. It does everything it is supposed to do, and it's the cheapest receiver I could find with all of these functions.

Well worth the money
I bought this receiver to use outside on my porch. As it will live in an enclosure, I didn’t want to spend a lot. After coming across this and reading the last reviews I ended up buying it as the price was great and if it turned out to be junk, I was only out $50. With that said, this receiver has enough power to blast music or play the sound from watching outdoor movies on the big screen. Setting it up was a bit problematic as they suggest using the banana plugs. DON’T use them. In doing so one of the speaker clips broke off. I had to open it up and figure out a way to secure the clip in place in order to attach the speaker wire. Good thing there’s hot glue. I was able to fix the clip and get my speakers hooked up. The Bluetooth option is great so that I can stream SiriusXM to it from my phone.In a previous review someone asked if you can store channels, this unit will scan all available channels and automatically store them. My presets went up to 40 channels since that’s all it found, most of them were static. Since I only listen to one channel, I know it’s one of the last presets. It will also remember the last channel you had so when you turn it on, it’s already set.Overall this was well worth the money and if and when it goes, I’ll buy another one for sure.

When you open the package, don't apply power until you verify there are no rattling part inside
I received this amplifier with good packing, but the amplifier had a rattle when unpacked. The transformer is mounted to the box by two sets of nuts and bolts. Both bolts and nuts were loose in the box and rattling around inside the chassis, the transformer was loose, and the transformer had moved around and broke the circuit board. The factory never bolted the transformer to the bottom of the box because the bolts would be installed through the bottom of the box from the outside. Seeing the damage, I closed the box, packed it up and request a replacement. Very disappointed, I was looking forward to installing this in my RV, it seems to have all the features I was looking for. Now, I have to wait 10 more days to get a replacement.Update: After receiving the new amplifier, I checked it over and made sure the transformer was secured with bolts inside the amp. I have used it in my RV. The radio tuner is weak as far as reception even with the roof mounted antenna connected. The sound quality is good and works very well with the TV audio connected to the “line input”. The Bluetooth works well. I like the XD slot to play music I have save from my music collection.

It's alright
It's a receiver for $40 - if you have realistic expectations, you'll be satisfied. I don't have the budget to spend on a $500+ receiver right now, and this one will serve all my needs until I do. I'll be disappointed if it fails in the next 12 months, but I don't realistically expect this receiver to last more than 2 or 3 years, and that's about fine for me.Sound seems fine to me, Bluetooth paired and worked very easily, aux worked too. The remote control volume function seems to be finnicky, and one of the components inside the receiver was rattling around inside - I had to open it up and tighten a couple screws, and now it's working fine without any rattling. It's not ideal, but again, this is $40. I expect it to work, and it works, I don't expect master level craftsmanship from China.

Good product but cheap connectors
I bought an Alesis Nitro Mesh electronic drum kit but I needed to use speakers instead of headphones. This amp performs much better than I expected, and the added features are very nice too: Bluetooth, FM radio, line/aux inputs, etc. The remote control works fine too. However, the little red plastic clips on the back are terrible. Very delicate and they pop out a lot, causing the spring to fly out too.

Came With the Transformer Loose Inside
Poor Quality. The transformer is mounted to the box by two sets of nuts and bolts. One bolt was loose in the box and the nut was rattling around inside the chassis, the transformer was held in place by the other nut and bolt, and this fastener was loose causing the transformer to move around and scratch the circuit board. I was able to fix it.The English translation of the manual is cryptic and incomplete. I cannot figure out what most of the controls do.It does amplify. There are cheaper and maybe better amplifiers available.

Small size amp with good output
When compared to my Yamaha amp this for sure half the size. I use JBL 8ohms 2 channel speakers connected and it bangs. There is no special output for a sub but the 2 channel output has enough amp to crank my passive sub. Sound quality is crisp with no distortion even at mid volume. Remote control is sensitive only at close range and has a mild change to equalizer function. Great bonus to have both 110 and 220 volts option selector.

Small but mighty capable.
The size of this little Bluetooth amplifier is surprisingly small. The sound amplification was amazing. The price point was great for the features included. There's 50 watts per channel pushing through this little thing.When I opened this instrument and hooked it up to my 70" LG OLED TV, I couldn't believe the quality of reception, the ease of hook-up & the convenience of using my phone to control it. I set up the amp, measured out the speaker wire, and powered everything up. Bluetooth connection to my TV was flawless and I had audio in seconds.I've used it to stream YouTube Music through a Chromecast Audio while watching Netflix, as well as playing games from Stadia. The sound is clear and precise, and I have lots of headroom. I cranked the volume on mixes a couple of times, and even on raw uncompressed instruments this little amp was handling it quite well but of course, it depends on how efficient your speakers are. Bass and treble adjustments were nice and helped me get dialed in to what I wanted. The four buttons are nice, but I couldn't see using the volume buttons over the volume dial itself. There's also a small remote included with all of the amps functions on it.Pairing is instant when turning on the TV. And the few times I've paired it with my phone, it's been just as quick and convenient. The only downside with pairing to a phone is the Bluetooth disconnects at about 10-15 feet. I noticed this when I walked out of my office and the audio stream stopped as soon as I left the room.Overall, for the price, this amp has been great to use and exactly what I am looking for in regards to my audio needs. Hopefully it's got some longevity and I can use this for a long time to come.

Lower quality than expected
I really don’t like to give negative reviews but this product failed to meet my expectations to the extreme. When the equipment arrived every screw on the cabinet was loose and the cabinet cover was misaligned with the main frame. When I took the cover off to reinstall properly I noticed the power transformer nuts had only been threaded on about two threads of the bolt. Ok, got everything lined up and hookEd up the speakers and audio in cables and powered up. Sound quality was sub par and within 15 minutes the amp shut down and no sound. Needless to say the equipment went back...and I will not be reordering. I didn’t expect much for $70, but this equipment is worth much less than that. Thanks Amazon for allowing the return.

Great sound, compact multi use machine
Your browser does not support HTML5 video. This amplifier is quite small In comparison to the one it replaced from 1979 in our home.I love the Bluetooth option and it was relatively easy to set up if you know what you’re doing.The buttons that hold the speaker wires were very flimsy. I had to play with them a bit in order to get them to stay in place.However I did also contact the seller and they said it shouldn’t have been that way. The seller sent a new device to replace the one I originally purchased.Some of the screws were loosened. When we unpacked the amp the screws that’s were holding the transformer were loose making it bounce around inside the casing.The sound quality is really good. You can use it as an MP3 player as well with your USB key or SD card. Many options. Let the machine go through the different channels on the radio before playing with it once it is set up. It helps find most of the proper stations in your area.The remote works well and makes it easier than touching the tiny buttons.The amp was a good price and the store was able to go above and beyond and replace the whole device at no extra cost to me when it arrived with parts loosened.The sound quality is very good and we are loving our new amplifier! Great features as well.
