Amazon.com Product Description
Turn your portable music player or small bookshelf unit into a true quality home system with the Sonic Impact 5066 portable digital audio amplifier. This pint-sized device (it measures just 3 by 7 inches and weighs less than a pound) can be connected to any standard 8 ohm or 4 ohm shelf speakers up to 20 watts in power, and features a simple 3.5 mm mini-jack input that works with most game consoles, MP3 players, CD and DVD players, and computers. It's an ideal choice for listeners who already own traditional speakers and don't want to shell out extra cash to equip their iPod or CD Walkman with a powered speaker system--an often-costly option, unless one opts for a low-end unit. This amp, by contrast, is remarkably affordable, yet still delivers a crisp, vibrant signal that compares to most high-quality linear amplifiers. Plus, it runs on eight AA batteries, so listeners can take it to the stadium for a tailgater or to a park for a picnic. Alternately, listeners can opt to use an AC adapter (sold separately) for indoor purposes. The amp is also a great fit in dorm rooms, midsized apartments, small offices, and anywhere else a big system would consume valuable space. In addition, the unit doesn't require a heat sink and offers intelligent short circuit protection. Sonic Impact covers the amp with a one-year warranty on parts and service. What's in the Box

 Great option for computer audio system November 21, 2007
Gordon Fink (St. Paul, MN United States)
This amp and a $15 regulated power supply replaced a Hafler DH-220 that was drawing 120 watts at idle and 180 watts in operation. This set up will eventually pay for itself in power savings. As a bonus, it sounds as good or better in my computer audio system.
Initially, the amp was really bright and harsh, but I let it run with an input signal for 72 hours and the sound improved significantly. I wasn't really a believer in "break-in" for solid-state electronics, but the sound did improve over time. I have a separate high end system, so it's not just becoming accustomed to the T-Amp.
The T-Amp and power supply combination isn't especially attractive, but it fit in with the rest of my hardware environment. I see that there is a version two T-Amp with power supply close to the price I paid for the amp and separate power supply.
 CANT GET BETTER FOR LESS THAN $500 October 20, 2007

I have been in the audio industry for 10 years, and never have I seen a product sound so good for so cheap. This amp is practically a miracle !!! Put one in every room!!! Incredible imaging!! Super fast!!! Quiet!! And you can use batteries and power a pair of speakers at the beach!!! Every home should have one!!

Excelent product....there is nothing as good for the price....I own it with my media player slimdevices squeezebox, and they match perfectly!
If you have a small to medium room, and a pair of speakers with at least 89dB, this product is for you!!

The product was faulty. One of the springs in the battery compartment was broken off, so it will not hold the batteries properly.
much music for little money October 17, 2007
Franz Robert Hugo (paris france europe)
By far best ratio good value for money on the market. Only (little) problem : sensitive speakers are a must for getting the best from that little beast but it's a bit worthy !
