Review on Lepai LP 168HA 40 Watt Amplifier Output by Stephanie Brown

I bought this to test my home speakers. I like to bi- or tri-amp my speakers with passive crossovers and this amp allows me to do that in one package by giving me some basic tone controls and variable crossover volume/frequency on the woofer. I'm guessing it's 4 ohms stable and 110 volts. I used to use a 4ch 12V transformer car amp for testing purposes, it's much smaller and simpler. The output power is sufficient for dyno testing and the sound is clear enough. There is some audible noise, but I wasn't expecting Class A studio sound at this price point. It's on par with other good T-class amps I've had and better than some of the cheap TPS chip amps I've used. I rode it fairly hard with no noticeable heat build-up or audible increase in THD. I haven't tested it with an oscilloscope or anything like that. Bottom line, this is a steal and offers some serious returns.
