  Sith Audio has been slowing down on their innovation lately. It's good to see that they are back and as strong as e.ver.

  I suspect Emotiva is the real sponsor of this episode. 2 of their amps, one of them priced above the 500$ cap. But the small one is worth it.

  I just subscribed to your channel, found it via YouTube algorithm…have watched a few of your videos while drinking COFFEE. Love how you do the videos. I have bought one item based your review, a Fosi Class D amp. I envy you guys in the USA with your prices. Living in Canada we get shafted on price on EVERYTHING.

  A much-needed review Mr. Cheapo. Those Emotiva's are the schiit!!

  Those stick-it memos are great for writing down a schiit list...

  The Emotiva A2m is my pc amplifier, paired with an ares ii DAC running some Q acoustics bookshelf speakers. <br>I did the headphone jack mod to power some hungry planars and it is AMAZING.

  I love this channel so much. I&apos;ve learned tons about HiFi and its by far my favourite. Keep up the good work. <br><br>Im in South Africa so products are limited but ive managed to get myself a WiiM Pro and SMSL SU-1. It feeds my NAD receiver and preouts to my rotel RB 980bx power amp. That feeds my B&amp;W 606s2 speakers. It sounds nuts

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xpnjMu19cro&amp;t=936">15:36</a> this is the minimum power amp one should buy to properly drive good speakers.

  This video couldn&apos;t have come at a better time. I was just talking to a friend of mine an hour ago about neediness needing dedicated power amps for my 4 ohm speakers.

  This is the thing about this hobby. About 10 years ago I bought the Peachtree 220. Years later, I got the NAD M10 V2 for convenience. Now building a 2nd room, I pull the 220 out of retirement and now I&apos;m thinking maybe I need more. <br><br>Nah, I&apos;ll stick with it, but this stuff is fun to watch.

  Love these best of/under XXX dollars videos with lots of models to discuss. More of these please! Surprised you did not mention the Fosi TB10D. Great little workhorse w/ NO BT, a power switch on the front, tone controls (that are actually really good/useful) and the TPA-3255. And it&apos;s super inexpensive. I&apos;ve recommended it to a bunch of my buddies and all good reviews. Keep up the great work, Randy!
