🎵 Black Micca OriGain 50W x 2 Compact Stereo Integrated Amplifier Review

Update: Micca replaced my broken unit which I bought in April 2018. I had to pay to send it to them but I got a new one. I used the new one TWICE before it also caught fire and died. $80 down the pipes. While they offer more power, features, and look better than the Lepai, avoid them like the plague. I bought this in April 2018 and used it to power a 10 year old pair of 6.5" JBL speakers. It did a pretty good job, the sound was clear and the amp is really well made. I recommend the 6 foot Micca

I bought this to replace a SMSL Class D mini amp of the same power. The SMSL is sent to a new location. I like the sound of the OriGain amp more than the SMSL. I've been an audio fanatic for 50 years. I know what sounds good and what doesn't. I'm not buying "bragging rights" audio (snake oil).

I chose the more expensive Micca version of these amps because the power supply was rated at 24V at 4.75A rather than the lower voltage which promised to maximize output power over cheaper competing products. Since a traditional…

This is just a general view after a week of use. I use this amp to power my Sony SSCS5 which I can say is a very good amp for the price range. Briefly about the packaging: the box is sealed and has a large foam inside to protect against bumps (as in the picture). I chose this amp for 3 main reasons: 1. Nice design (personal opinion), mini.2. Comes with 24v, 4.75 amp power supply. Although there are no measurements, I think that the performance of the power supplies is only about 80-90% of their

Many other reviewers have commented on the excellent sound quality and I agree. To me it sounds as good as my old 500 watt per channel Class A/B Carver amp. I can't find any flaws in the quality of the sound produced. It's completely silent in quiet portions of an audio program and has enough power for near-field listening. It goes well with Micca RB42 bookshelf speakers and some old KLH speakers I have. . Other amps I've bought used a grounded power supply. Connecting the analog audio input of
