Great multi-source amp
I like thag this amp supports so many sources and allows you to power 2 sets of speakers. It’s very compact which makes it easy to find a spot for it in tight setups. It is actively which which is both good and bad. Good in that I dont worry about it getting too warm in a slightly enclosed setup. It seems to almost always keep the fan running on low, even when idling which emits a very faint fan noise all the time. Once its running the fan picks up a little but your music will easily overpower its hum. I do wish they had built in the ability to do A/B speaker switching. As it’s designed it’s all speakers or none.

Great class D amp for any speakers
Great amplifier more than enough power for kitchen ceiling speakers and outdoor patio speakers. Love it have paired with Bose 791, which the amp has a dedicated eq for those speakers. Bose app 4/5 needs work but I mostly used them via airplay 2 or bluetooth. Clean dynamic sound even in low volumes, love listening in to music, even better than zone from most A/V receivers. A little pricey but after having it for several days, decided this a keeper for the long term.
