Surprisingly good, not for audiophiles, great for my use case.

First off, this little box contains 12 speakers (2 cabinets in series on each side). I'm really impressed that 100 watts can sound so good. I got this for my studio. We not only watch movies here, we also do photoshoots (models often like music to set the mood). We play here too and I needed something to slide my 2 Pinnacle bookshelf speakers and 2 of my Sony floorstanding speakers. This little box is PERFECT for the job! Sound quality: yes, I know that I press on it and probably drive this amp a bit, but I did my first audio tests with only two Pinnacle bookshelf speakers with an impedance of 4 ohms. Even with these small speakers, the sound was good, albeit a bit lacking in the highs. I then tried this on my Sony tower speakers and got the same result. I stream audio through my laptop and phone. Regardless of the source, the audio is a bit heavy. However, with an EQ in the mix, I was able to get the sound I wanted. Ease of use: It's ingeniously simple! Literally plug and play. I ended up making some banana plugs for the back of the unit that also have screw terminals with holes in the plug so you can connect the speaker wire however you like. Bluetooth connection is pretty good, pairing is required but no code entry. . Just find the 300 headphones in the list and connect them. Ready. Personal copy: My copy came with a completely broken windscreen from the power button. Not a deal breaker by any means, and due to the very dark plastic I may never have noticed, except that the power button is backlit by numbers on the display and I saw a large crack. Overall this is a great solution for outputting sound to real speakers. Great for maybe a set of outdoor speakers (it's not waterproof but put it inside and run cables to some external speakers. Or like me you want to set up something semi-wireless without a big amp. We recommend! My copy came with a completely broken windshield from the power button.
