I built a 2.1 system using this board as an internal amp and got good performance using the stock power supply. One thing that I was really impressed with was the ability to use Airplay. It ran last night for three hours straight at one-third volume and the heat sink fins were warm but not hot.
It is a versatile unit.
Your analysis is more than excellent!
You measurements are RMS wattage from a Class D amplifier. Basically they are expected from this type of class amplifier. Depends from the amps that the power supply provides, the accuracy and the efficiency of it, even from the temperature that the chips are working.
At 9:50 you calculation is spot on! Remember though that this is divided by 2, and the one half is divided again by 2.... So... 100W/2=50W for subwoofer and 25W per channel, for the given power supply.
Subscribed!
Thanks for watching.
The output power is directly tied to the current at 24V as you stated. You just need to pick up a 24V 6.66A (160W) adapter. I am running two 8 ohm stereo drivers and a single 12” 2 ohm sub. I watched the video but may have missed the part about their control software. Using a sine sweep, you can plot the response graph then create a complex parametric filter which can be embedded directly into the board’s flash storage. This is a huge deal especially for DIY DML setups which have dozens of harsh vibrational modes that need to be eq’d out to flatten the system response.
Yes, the DSP capabilities are pretty impressive.
I have mission 771 bookshelf speakers. They can take from 25Wpc at 8Ohms. I tried topping mx3 which has stated 38wpc and performance was just audible, mushy and indistinct when the amp was driven to 60% volume. Sensitivity: 87dB.
I guess this wouldn't do any better.
I connected this little amp to my 4 OHM DML's. It sounded just fine and got plenty loud.
The Topping people agreed that it's not capable of handling my amp with the supplied power supply 24v. 4 Ohm speakers are easier to drive clearly.
Nice Video!
Another Question:
Your Device seems to be showing the amp not even producing sufficient volume at 16KHz,
what does this mean? Does play up to 20 KHz?
I think that's just the internal mic on the telephone, nothing on my RTA ever measures flat above 16, 000
Are you able to use this without WiFi? Using Bluetooth only? For example if you put it into a portable speaker project to take outdoors?
Yes!
Great video!!! I was about to build a bluetooth speaker based on the specs. Sorry for the confusion. But I planned to power this with a buck boost converter at 24v 4amps like the power supply using 7s2p 6ah battery pack. You mentioned, you wouldn't go higher than 15v. What should I pick for voltages. Thanks again for posting 👍👍👍👍👍
I think I linked to a power supply in the video description.
@@DIYAudioGuy Arylic sent me the same unit, with a psu and remote. 4th amp these guys have sent. Reason I'm asking what you should power this with, I thought I heard you say it started clipping at 10v? If that's the case 24 volts. Is way to much. Techs told me, 24v8amps would be perfect for this, just don't go past 24v. But I think I'd trust your opinion first. Did I hear it right with the clipping? What do you think of using 24v 8amp? Thanks for messaging me back.
@@DIYAudioGuy PS- no link in description I can see?
Good video
Like the amp!
Is there something like this, but without the amp, that I can hook up to my existing amp in order to add wifi and bluetooth capabilities?
I think the S10 is what you are looking for. www.arylic.com/products/s10-wireless-preamplifier?aff=79
seems quite interesting. So, iIf using a 19v source it would realistically give me an output of 2x35w and somewhere near 75w one the sub out, all out driven in 4Ohms, at least in theory. Am I correct ?
During this video uses the same chip, so this will give you a realistic picture of the power output. th-cam.com/video/Gpo3fyGr2is/w-d-xo.html
How can I use my Android phone inbuilt microphone whilst using upstream and my audio speakers to deliver a lecture?
I have no idea.
Is it possible to use a stronger power supply
example: 24v 6a??
I honestly don't remember, but a bigger power supply will help.
@@DIYAudioGuy thanks!
Guess I will buy this one after all
Would this board support Wifi input via Spotify? Or is the app required for all direct play?
It requires the app and I'm pretty sure the app would connect to Spotify. It would not connect to Pandora.
It does not require the app. You can connect your iPhone Spotify app via Spotify Connect for a direct stream.
Nice Review, Really enjoyed watching it.
But if I‘d use a 8,5 Amp power Supply, would it do better or maybe Even close to the rated specs ?
Probably, yes. But, I used the one they sent me, which is the one they sell on their website. So this is clearly the one they expect to be used.
@@DIYAudioGuy... did u mesurement of performance on speakers, or on resistor?...
....not at all - on this type of amplifiers (amp chips/ics) performance is dependenced on voltage, not on current in majority...resp. on current are dependent performance / power in spikes only (and for this work are the capacitors on the board), but overall power is dependent on voltage, whitch is restricted by specifications of the chip/ic...
@@feflofeflic you are suggesting that amps don't matter. Voltage without amps equals nothing and visa versa. Also, you can't simply put in more volts as you will fry the unit. Secondly, It's always a good thing to have a little headroom. According to my calculations, you need a 24 volt, 6.5 amp power supply to get the most out if this thing.
@@xanderguldie u r right - i wrote it not totally correctly (it was very simplified), but i wanted said only 1 thing - if u have a power supply with low voltage is uselless to have a high possible current on it - performance of "digital" amplifier will be low, but if u want a good performance of this type of amplifier, u need power supply with decent voltage and current together (in high voltages (on the border of recommended voltage) there is a danger of ov3rheating amplifier chip)... sorry for my bad english...
Let's say I am on my windows device and have a youtube video open -- and I want to cast the audio to one of these devices... The realistic situation for most people is that they have no music downloaded on their devices -- how would I achieve this?
Bluetooth would be the most direct way. I don't think that the device has a TH-cam interface.
How about this one for 2x 50W 6ohm speaker?
After tinkering with the DIY boards I recommend getting the pre-built ones. Same amp but already in the case. www.arylic.com/collections/wireless-amplifiers/products/arylic-a50-wifi-bluetooth-multiroom-full-digital-hifi-amplifier-with-airplay-dlna-multiroom-control?aff=79
Why no Pandora?
I have no idea.
I wish some of you audio youtubers would just use real world music examples instead of using fancy analyzers and sine wave graphs, we dont care because it just looks like a Star Trek console when you show us that stuff.
As soon as I figure out a better way to visualize what's going on I'll do it. The tricky part about using music is the TH-cam copyright restrictions, plus TH-cam will compress the sound, goodbye with the fact that most people are listening using the speaker on their phone...
They use some strange practices in this company in my view... They should at least provide the back plate of this amplifier because with all these connections, it is very difficult to include it in a box. And if you buy it in this version, this is the purpose I guess. So in reality, it is useless to buy it like this.
That is exactly why I have two of these DIY boards sitting in a drawer. I think you are right, if it had a back plate that could be easily flush mounted on just about any enclosure that it would be a much better device.
I don't get it. With this kind of money you buy a 2.1 system with more power. Am i missing something?
The Wi-Fi / whole house audio is what your missing out on. Get two or three of these you can control the music throughout the entire house.
