OSD Outdoor Amplifier WiFi Bluetooth Streaming Class D (100W x 2) Stereo Amp, Free iOS/Android app, EQ Adjustment IP64 Nero Stream WRA

I've been happy with this amp so far, but it started cutting in and out on the left side recently, and I double-checked all the cables to make sure it wasn't the amp. I'm quite adept at putting things through their paces. I just don't think it's reasonable to wait 18 months for a power amp. I'm stumped as to how to get service, and I'm willing to work with the vendor to find a solution. I need to replace it or have it serviced as soon as possible at this point.

I purchased five of these to power speakers throughout my house. All speakers are 8 ohms and have impedance matching volume controls. br>Of the five, two are no longer functional. The green light is turned on, but no output is generated. I replaced it with a comparable audio source amp and haven't had any issues since. I'm sorry I bought these; they're not very reliable. br>Just so you know, I work in this industry. I usually use audio source amps, but I went with these because of the faster shipping time, and I'm not happy with it.

I really like this amp, and it was ideal for an outdoor stereo installation, but after a week or two, the volume started raising all by itself to all the way up, and they didn't refund $45 of my purchase price. I assumed it was caused by other remotes or my IR extender, but I replaced the IR extender and all the cables, and it still went completely haywire. It was the strangest thing I'd ever seen on an installation, and I've worked in the AV industry for 35 years. I tried calling OSD support, leaving a message, and sending emails with no response, until Amazon support finally reached someone there, and the rep said he had never heard of that before and that it had been replaced. So I returned it and bought another brand with similar functionality that doesn't appear to be possessed by a gremlin. When I sent this one back, the box and original packaging were missing; I usually send things back as pristine as possible because I thought it was a keeper. I'd "get" the restocking fee if it wasn't defective, but there was no explanation as to why they only refunded $184 out of a total of $229, so I can't recommend it.

After nearly 30 years in the audio industry, I was skeptical of this brand because I had never heard of them before, but the price was right, so I decided to give them a try. I'm using the amp to power a pair of OSD Audio planter speakers on my deck, and my source is Google Chromecast audio. br>br>The sound is fantastic, and the setup was simple. Plenty of power for light to medium volume, which is exactly what I wanted and expected from an amplifier of this size. br>br>For the time being, I'm giving it a 5 star rating because I've only had it for a few days. If that changes, I'll make a note of it in the review.

I used four of these in my house to power four sets of in-ceiling speakers and connected Chromecast audio to their RCA inputs; their auto-on feature is fantastic, as they turn on after a second once you start casting audio to them. When they're finished, they'll turn off on their own. At a fraction of the cost of Sonos, this is an excellent solution.

One television with both fixed and variable RCA outputs, as well as an Echo Dot with two RCA outputs via a special cable. This amplifier accepts both of these sources as inputs. The TV serves as the primary input, while the ALEXA serves as an 'interrupting' input. As soon as I ask Alexa to do something, the amplifier switches to Alexa and mutes the TV for a short time while she speaks. When Alexa is finished, it switches back to the TV after a few seconds, all without the need for user intervention. It's true, I must confess. That's pretty cool! After Alexa finishes speaking, it appears to take a long time before it returns to the television. If it hadn't been for the long pause (maybe 5 seconds), I would have given it 5 stars all around. Make your house more technologically advanced! Thank you to OSD for developing this device.

As a result, I spent $1500 on a Denon AVR-XXXXXXXXXXXXXX HEOS Speakers and my outdoor speakers had major software linkage issues with the X4100W receiver. This was accomplished with the help of two Denon products. Finally, the main amplifier on my Denon AVR failed (what a waste of money). This was the final straw, and my wife's frustration reached a breaking point, so I decided to use my HEOS Link to connect my two speaker groups with the XMP100. It worked perfectly! Good, clean power, and all of my HEOS speakers are in sync, giving me a complete home entertainment system for a third of the price of a HEOS amplifier. I also get to double the number of speaker groups I can create. Denon's "solutions" are much more expensive. Thank you, OSD! br>br> br>br>Update 12/11/21. . . found out that my HEOS Link to the OSD amp has a low voltage activation capability, which allows me to turn on the amp remotely and save power.

I was looking for a Class D stereo amp that could be bridged, and I came across the OSD. I did some research and found out it's a California-based company. a company that specializes in audio engineering and production. The OSD XMP100 is a fantastic performer. Vintage B is currently running. The amp sounds fantastic thanks to the Beovox RL35 speakers. The sound has no digital "feel" to it. Smooth controls and a small footprint make for a very light and portable device. The EQ function was particularly appealing to me. With no audio input, I turned up the volume to maximum and still couldn't hear anything out of my speakers. It was extremely quiet. Modern speakers, unless they are vintage in design, are not recommended for a "warmer sound. " The only drawback I found was that the speaker inputs were female banana jacks. The speaker wires will require male banana jacks. A pair of OSDs should have been included. Otherwise, it is strongly advised.
