Review on Bluetooth Amplifier Integrated Converter Streaming by Devon Holmes

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Works very well. - Home Theater

I needed a small audio amplifier to power two Yamaha 10" 10-140W passive speakers as I got rid of my old Pioneer receiver/amp but not the speakers. my old Sony XBR2- TV to improve the sound through the built in speakers and I needed a small powerful amplifier with a remote control. The remote worked well for adjusting the bass and treble with and without the volume function to get the sound I wanted. Fosi sent an E -Mail and they responded quickly.We tried a few things but couldn't get it to work.Trying the amp with an optical cable on another TV worked very well with the optical input on the amp.After a lot of research I found out that the Sony XBR2 and XBR3 televisions only have a digital output via the optikc hen audio output when the TV was receiving a signal through the coaxial (cable) input and not HDMI, so the problem wasn't with the Fosi amp, it was with my TV. The reason I didn't use the TV's cable input was because since I'm not a smart TV and didn't want to rent another cable box, I bought a Google Chromecast TV to get reception. It works great but can only connect to the TV via HDMI. I found that I could get around this problem if I bought an HDMI to HDMI + Optical adapter for around $25, but since I was only using 2 channel stereo instead of 5.1 I decided not to to go further. It sounds great through the TV's RCA output. I just connected my phone to the amp's blue tooth and it played great quality music. You can turn on/off the device and change the input and volume on the amplifier or with the remote control. The sound is adjusted via the remote control. There are no balance controls, the only thing missing. I had an unusual problem that most people won't have. The bottom line is that the Fose DA2120C is a great little amp and if you're having trouble getting it to work with your system, Fosi's support is very responsive and they seem determined to fix the problem.
