See the latest Lepai min amplifier, the LP-2020A+ up close and personal. I show off the connections, test the amp with music, then put the amp to the RMS power output test on the OldSchoolStereo.com test bench.
Buy this amp on Amazon and support OldSchoolStereo!

I can't stress enough how great this little amp sounds! Also, I was expecting more output during the RMS wattage testing and if you go by the numbers themselves, it doesn't appear very impressive. For around $25 US, I can't imagine a better deal for a small amp. It would be great to power some small bookshelf speakers or to be used in a portable stereo. See my buddy Jamesstargate1 here on YouTube as he's made a dozen or more boomboxes using these little Lepai amps.
The amp is based on Class T topology and a tripath design. It also promises 88% efficiency and makes the most use of 2A I've ever seen in an amp. My LP-2020A+ didn't come with a power supply, so make sure you have an extra 12-14v 2-5A adapter with a center positive 5.5mm x 2.1mm plug. Luckily, I had an older LCD monitor with a compatible power supply.
Let me know what you think about this little powerhouse!
