Review on Pemenol HiFi Bluetooth 5.0 Amplifier Board | 100W Digital Power, WiFi Clock | DIY Home Audio | Bluetooth, AUX, USB Input | Wireless Control | Alarm 12/24H by Brandie Zhang

Small amplifier, small price, big sound!

. This item is a lot smaller than I expected which is nice considering how limited my space is. but still he can REALLY crank the plugs. Make sure you get a 24 volt 4 amp power adapter for this - it's not included, although they do include a barrel jack adapter which is a nice touch. I was also able to test the output volume at 12 and 24 volts at 1.2 amps and 12V/2A and it was acceptable, although it definitely struggled to drive my speakers fully. Bluetooth connectivity is pretty decent, even in the RF nightmare. the world i live in and the sound is really good but the aux is where the sound is best. It's definitely not obvious from the video I posted, but even my cheap setup (at-lp60 turntable via built-in jp1 tube preamp via micca mb42x speakers) sounds fantastic as a result. so i'm really impressed! The app might require a bit of work - I can't get it to do anything other than change the equalizer presets (which are awful lol - but I'm not a user of equalizer presets), but you don't need to to work. All functions are integrated into the device. so no problem for me. Finally, I can't say much about the alarm clock function since it's 2021 and I just use my phone alarm like literally everyone else with a phone does, but it's nice to have a clock in the room.

Pros
  • ★ What you need to know: 1>. Connect max XY-W50L, router and phone when connected to WIFI clock. The phone must connect WIFI to this router when pairing. 2>. The recommended DC power supply voltage is 12V ~ 24V with a current over 2A. The module will be damaged if the input voltage is over 24V. 3>. The lower the speaker impedance, the greater the output power. It is recommended to use a 4 ohm speaker. ❗Please read the user manual and description before using
Cons
  • . Very expensive
