Nobsound NS-15G

Ups:Tiny! Easily fits on my desk along other geeky stuffSound quality is quite excellent (compared to Yamaha HTR-3067 and Pioneer VSX-D514)Good connections instead of those spring loaded onesVolume control is a bit finicky near the quiet endDowns:Loud-ish pop from speakers if you use a smart plug to handle power on/off instead of volume knobSupplied power brick is... Adequate. Don't expect 2x100W though, think 2x30W

Simple yet reasonably powerful amplifier.Bought to enable a turntable to be connected in order to play LPs.My grandson loves it.Good value .Very small footprint.

I really wasn’t expecting very much from this item and went for the upgraded version based on other reviews. I’ve paired it with a set of ProAc Studio Reference speakers and I have to say I’m very impressed with this NS15G Pro. Okay it’s already on an upward track with the speakers but remember they are normally paired to a rather special amp so this unit had a big hill to climb sound wise. Has it managed it ! For sure. A tiny little thing that is performing and punching way above its weight, yes it’s a little light on bass but the treble is good as is the overall sound and one should never forget that quality of sound is always lost over BT but having said all of that I’m liking it. It was very quick to pair with my phone and TV along with my Alexa speaker, but not sure I need that. It’s well built and the knobs feel nice and smooth in operation with a good click to indicate you have reached the off position. Sound quality is good even at higher levels and it fills my 50 foot by 30 lounge with no issues at all. Better than a very expensive Bluetooth amp ?Probably not, but for the money and occasional use I’m happy with my purchase. I’m hoping it will give many years of service and at this very moment see no reason at all why it shouldn’t.

I purchased this to replace a broken el-cheapo version of the same thing, which is used between two PC's (work and personal) spending almost every day in conference calls or playing music to keep me sane whilst I work.Setup was very easy, it bluetooth pairs without any issue at all, and sound quality is really very good indeed. There is no shortage of power either - this little thing has quite a bit of grunt and drives my Mordaunt Short MS10's really nicely.If you are expecting this to be as powerful and as good as a top end, audiophile amplifier then look elsewhere... if you take it for what it is though, you can quite happily fill a room with decent quality sound from a very small box.

I'm amazed that such a tiny amplifier can be so good. Using a pair of Kef Cresta II bookshelf speakers rated @100W this little amp certainly powers them well. Powerful punchy bass and a high treble. I don't use the tone controls but they do work fine. I prefer an original sound.There is no audio 'thump' that you get at switch on. The unit doesn't even get warm near full power. (I've only used at 3/4 volume/power so as not to introduce clipping.The power supply provided is rated at 19 Volts, 4.74 amps and this is adequate. If you want to squeeze the most out of this little gem then I think you can go up to a 24 Volt PSU. (MAX!)Things I would like to see: a headphone socket and maybe an auto shut off when no signal is received! Very minor points that does not deflect what a superb little amp this is.It seems very well built (I have not had a look inside) but on the outside is is solid aluminium with aluminium Volume and tone control knobs.... Very nice indeed.Well pleased with my purchase and it will be used well :)

I bought this to replace an old, slightly broken Kenwood KA-3020SE amplifier that, as it turns out, only does 30w per channel at 8ohm. It is so much smaller - by orders of magnitude - and the sound is SO much better. Punchy bass, clear highs, my KEF Caras have never sounded more alive. I haven't even got it at half volume before it gets loud enough that I'm concerned my neighbours would complain!Love the fact that Bluetooth is toggleable. After looking at a similar amp that had no way to turn off Bluetooth I went for this. The only downside is that compared to my old amp there's no way to pipe audio back out to connect to a tape deck. I would imagine a splitter is all I need though so that's no big deal.Absolutely recommended. Also it's got a funny name.

I wanted a tiny amp to run my t.v. through and the bluetooth was a plus.Paired with 2 Wharfdale 9.1 speakers either side of an LG 49 Inch smart T.V. and I can throw away my cheap ovation sound bar. Bluetooth connectivity is almost immediate and gives me all the volume i need for a mid terraced property. Bass is very good. A lovely little piece of kit. Connected to T.V. through UGREEN RCA Audio Cable 2RCA Phono Male to 3.5mm Male Headphone Jack Stereo Y Splitter my T.V. now sounds clear crisp and no more muffled voices.

Great delivery,well packaged. Very surprised when I unpacked it. So small!Punches above it's weight though. Easy connection to turntable. Bluetooth connection is fast and easy.Drives two 100w Yamaha speakers with ease. Just need to see what the durability is like. Would recommend.
