Stupid good amplifier

I have had some OK polk audio 5b speakers for going on 20 years. I have been toying with getting better sounding speakers of late.

My amp died, It would take 30 minutes to “warm up” then sounded really bad. I bought a digital amplifier from online. The cheap plastic version was $30, I spent about $140 for a metal cased version, same electronics though. The sound is amazing. Better than my Onkyo amp of a few years ago, better than an old Pioneer tube amp I had. Better than anything I have ever heard. It plays reasonably loud, and sounds very very crisp up to past half way ( its only 15 watts but its 88% efficient, most amps are at best 55% ). I can hear bass at low volumes where before I would crank the power to get full spectrum audio.

The short of it is, the T-amp is stupid simple and sounds great.
