Stetsom IR 160.2 RCA 2 Ohms Compact Digital Multi-Channel Amplifier, IRON LINE, 160 Watts RMS 160x2, 2Ω Stable, Digital Car Audio Amp, Full-Range Sound Quality, Crossover, Factory Player Audio Adapter

I needed to find a small amp to fit into my car, which no longer has space for a head unit and is using a little NXT BT controller. I initially tried a Pyle Hydra and it was horrible.Take 2, for $15 more, I went with this little guy. It is absolutely itty bitty! Don't let the size fool you, it drives my 6.5s with ease!

Work as it's intended, easy to install. Need new speakers bigger than 55W RMS to handle this tiny amp.

SO SO tiny, way smaller than I expected. That does lend to it having a bit of a "fragile" feeling, especially the connectors on the cables, but it also increases the potential uses. I was going to try it in my car as a dedicated amp for some midbass woofers, but I may instead use it as a homebrew home stereo.

This device is SO small, with so little heat radiating fins on it that it is really questionable that it can do what it claims as far as power. If you notice the frequency response cuts off at either 45Hz or 50Hz (depending on which specs you read) - and there is no +/- 1dB attached to that rating. The lack of the +/- means the response may be almost nothing at lower frequencies - it could be down 50dB at 50Hz and the spec's they give would still be true.There is a second issue - the power light (which lights up the fuse oddly enough) never goes off once turned on with power left attached. If you connect this directly to your battery - then power it up using an audio signal or trigger signal - then turn off the audio/and-or/trigger - the power light stays on. It gets dimmer but it never goes off. It continues to draw current from the car battery. This can be an issue on a car that isn't used frequently.I've asked the company about this - with a message on their Facebook page, and a message using a contact form on their company website - and no answer. Crickets. That's not satisfactory. The product is questionable by itself due to the limited and perhaps deceiving specifications - but the total lack of any response to technical questions makes me think this might just have to be returned to Amazon.I'll add to the review. It sounded OK as installed - until I started the engine - then ignition whine almost louder than the audio signal out of it. Totally unusable - heading back to Amazon. The rating changed from 2 stars to 1 star. AVOID.

has a static noise

The wire connected to the RCAs is about 22awg so it's not great audio getting in there, they pick up a ton of noise though so there's that. The amp works but it's either on or off, the potentiometer is worthless. Suppose you could use it for a low amped set of components as it has no crossover either. Overall for 20 more bucks you can do much better.

I so wanted to like this amp. It is tiny, so it fit in the small area I had available. Unfortunately only one channel worked. I swapped things around and tried this and that, but nope only the right channel worked. Sent it back!

it sort of worked for a second, then went crackly and now only one channel works. I can't get a hold of anyone for warranty either. I got a decent deal but it took me a while to get it installed so out of the return window.I will say the one channel that works sounds pretty good. I think there are better options, but this is the only micro amp thing with a remote wire. I am wiring up a relay for a "Remote" on a different micro 2 channel amp
