If you keep watching the videos the last video in this series I tell you which one I like in which ones I don’t like and go over the models with each one. Keep waiting :)
Agreed and I don’t think he recognizes this as a problem because HE made the video so it makes sense in his head & eyes, but I was constantly searching back and forth to figure out WTH he was talking about and finally moved onto another video.BOOOOO!
I'm glad your testing all these amps in your videos, there's so many of them, some one has to test them all. so the rest of us can make a better purchase desision. anyways thanks your videos are awesome and very helpful.
Wondering if you were able to get BT working again for the Fosi BT30D? There are some negative reviews on Amazon about it because the BT was defective so maybe this is a bigger issue than just yours?
Is it just me? I couldn't make head nor tail out of this unlabeled mess as he kept flipping amps around. This crap happens because these click baiters don't plan or even think about what they are doing or saying. Unprepared they just wing it.
I purchased Nobsound NS-03G sub amp to connect a Samsung SS-WS71 passive subwoofer to a Sony STR-DH590 Receiver. I tried all options but i didn't work.
Sorry to hear you're having trouble with your mini amp, it sounds like he might have gotten a bad one. In the past I have received a bad one and written to the seller and they re-sent me a new one. Thank you so much for watching.
I've read a number of comments on Amazon that the 50W units just do not get loud enough. I'm looking at the Douk M1 Pro which is 320W. I need to be able to push more clean sound than (according to the reviews) the 50W units can do. Would anyone care to comment on that? Cheers!
I don't really listen to my music that loud so the ones that I bought seem to work just fine. If you're trying to push a huge driver/speaker that would be where I think you would need more white than 50W.
@@hanzdidit Thank Hanz. I got my Douk M1 all set up yesterday & it is amazing. Lower THD than my Sherwood receiver & big, warm & well delineated sound. My powered sub works great as well. This thing gets loud w/no distortion. The Bluetooth is flawless.
thanx for the video...very helpful as i'm trying to decide. Wrt Fosi BT30D 1. can u use the output for the passive and active subs at the same time? i.e. running 2 subs, 1 active + 1 passive? 2. does the bass & sub freq knob control the output to both the active AND passive outputs? or just one of the outputs 3. can the adaptor be used with a 240v supply? would really appreciate your answers, its critical for my decision and just cannot find answers online thx
@@hanzdidit thx for the response....i actually wanna run 2 bass shakers (tactile transducers), from the passive output (in parallel...they are only 25W each)...and i have a separate powered sub i wanna connect to the active output. I then want to be able to control all these speakers Freq and volume. Hence the questions. BTW its for a sim rig. Checked the power and impedence (4ohms each, in parallel = 2 ohms on the amp, and this amp starts at 2ohms ...so i'm ok)...so my speaker selection will work, but i just need some clarity on the questions tx
I have the 30 D and you can run both the passive and the active at the same time. The Frequency works with both but the base does not affect the subwoofers it’s separate it rocks man it’s a good amp. I don’t know about the 240 or not. hope this helps they also make a pro version of this as well and I think it’s like 165 W of channel or something at two homes maybe I don’t know but it’s up there’s more power but I don’t. I can’t vouch for that one.. Read my comments about it and maybe that’ll help you as well. I don’t know but it’s a kick ass little amp for $90 or whatever it is
I really wanted to enjoy your video, as you are comparing at least 3 different Amps i'm interested in, but why are you so bad at communicating WHICH product you're talking about, and you hold it up to the camera, but you DON'T check if it's in focus, so we can't even identify it by it's model number! ?? 1st) You start of good enough with how you describe the 1st product as a the "S-299" (tip:START the product review with identifying the product, NOT waiting until the the very end). 2nd) Then you go onto the 2nd product as the Douk Audio, So far, so not so bad right? 3rd) Then what do you go onto? The "Fosi Audio".....wait, you have THREE "Fosi" products in this video, so which one is this ?? 4th) Then you talk about the "Nobsound" product (no model I.D. !?) saying "it powers a Sub", but WHICH product is this?? it's not even listed in your video description as one of the products of this video ?? You also say this Nobsound "powers a sub " one moment, then the next moment you say "...is a non-powered subwoofer version..." so wait, does this Nobsound amp power a sub, or not ? Sounds like you're describing a "sub-pre-out" to go to a powered sub ?? While still holding the "Fosi" product and after talking about the Nobsound, you don't say whether the Fosi powers a sub or not, you just finish and put it away ?? (it certainly looks like it has the speaker outputs as if it powers a sub, who knows eh ??) At the end of the video you display SIX amps, but your video description only lists FIVE ?? Jesus, then it's 10 minutes in before you start lugging all SIX products out and start identifying some of them, but with your comments earlier we don't know which comments go with which product ?? Also the way you confuse the viewer switching describing "powered/non powered" amps with "powered/non powered" subwoofers, aieee !?
@@hanzdidit I'm no different than the other commenters here who recognise you're very scattered presentation would be so much better if you clearly, and concisely, mentioned each model, and bounced around less between them. For something that could be a simple linear list from bottom to top, you made the most confusing passage bouncing all over the place. Also be consistent between what products you have in your video, and linked in the description.
New to this trying to get educated on Fosi. Thinking on running a 2.1 system thinking on running monoblock so 2 ZA3 1 BT30D pro for bluetooth control and running a Rockville Eq to it. You have a ton of knowledge what are your thoughts? Thank you.
there are so many of these coming out on the market right now. I'm not really sure what to recommend at this point. I will be getting more and be doing Moore is here soon. Hopefully this is helpful.
Nice review - I am using a FOSI MO-3 to power the subwoofer on my left Definite Technology BP2002 floor standing speaker. The BP2002s have powered subs build into the cabinets. Over time the internal plate amplifiers powering the subwoofers fail. The first time I had the internal plate amplifier and crossover replaced on the right speaker. It was quite expensive over $600. When the left sub amplifier failed last year I decided to wire the sub cone directly to the binding posts on the rear of the speaker and use an external subwoofer amplifier (FOSI MO-3, Texas Instrument chip - class D) to drive the subwoofer cone. It worked beautifully. It was a much less expensive fix.
Thank you so much for your input I'm sure that my viewers will love to hear your experience with these amps. I am no audio expert by any means but it sounds like you did the right thing to get the sound you want. Thank you so much for watching.
I have a turntable with RCA output, would I lose any quality using an RCA to AUX in order to plug into the DA2120A or would I be better off sticking with the BT30A?
can fosi audio bt30a connect with passive speakers? could u explain more on that, i afraid if it does not integrate with my systems. thank u in advance.
The Aiyima A03 has a passive subwoofer output with the sub volume level and sub frequency adjustment..It does 50x2 and 100w X1 to the sub..Maybe something you can check out 👍
How does powering your sub works ,your sub is like 500watts,that means the wattage of the amp is lower,Im planning to buy the fosi audio bt30d,but then I see the sub out is like 100watts,my sub is non powered 300 watts,will that push the amp to a limit?
Yes it will push the app to the limit but it will only put out what it can put out. It's not going to blow out your speaker. If you really want to get some good deep base out of your amp he will need to get a powered sub.
Thanks you.. for excellent review. One question: which one has better sound quality bt30d vs bt30a in cleaner or crisper sound and also in bass reproduction?
@@hanzdidit thanks not a big BT fan. Odd thing when I go to Fosi's site Google kicks it back with a Malware warning. I was looking to get the BT30D Pro and Amazon is Out of Stock. hmm
Dang man, you reviewed all of the ones I was curious about! Hell yeah! 😎🤟🏽 Edit: for a small basement system, would you go with the S-299 or the Fosi BT30A?
If you do not need to have tools and I would probably go for the BT30a. If you were on a budget then I would definitely use the S - 299. They both sound great and are amazing. Either way I don't think you'll be disappointed. Thanks for watching.
@@jrtishner Not the same model but I recently paired a Fosi BT30D with some JBL A130 speakers - still going to buy a sub but I could actually do without one. From the CD player only need the volume at 25% (man den is ~170 square feet/15 square meters), over Bluetooth from my phone need the volume at 75%. Whilst I am very impressed I'm no audiophile and my benchmark has been set from crappy PC speakers.
Reviews with a lot of “this one” and “this one” better than “this one” are hard for people who can’t recognize the models.

I have the s-299 and it is good but non stereo.
Are any of these amps play in stereo?
I'm pretty sure all of them are stereo you just have to make sure you hook them up correctly.
Doesn't everyone use powered subs in home these days unless they are running traditional cabinet floor speakers?
You would be surprised. My setup on my dining room I am using a non powered sub and it sounds great. Thanks for watching.

To be honest between the two I could not tell a huge difference. In my opinion they are all very good.
@@hanzdidit but the bt30d has de advantage to set up the equalizer... may this help
