Review on πŸ”Š Degraw DIY Speaker Kit: PAM8403 5V Amplifier + 2Pcs 4 ohm, 3 watt Speakers – Arduino Compatible by Amy Johnson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Nice set of amplifier and speakers.

I built a small desktop arcade and used these speakers and amplifiers. There's nothing amazing about them, but they fit my project perfectly. They sound pretty decent for their size, and sitting a meter away is more than loud enough. My only complaint is the included 3.5 inch cable which causes a lot of interference. It made buzzing and other noises until I replaced this cable. It has no shielding and is not earth wrapped like other 3.5mm cables. After replacing this cable everything works as expected and I am happy with the final product.

Pros
  • Simply power the kit with any 5V power source (not included): USB cellphone charger, 3 AA batteries or cellphone battery. Soldering required (pins included). Do not turn on the amplifier without speakers connected as this will damage the amplifier.
Cons
