Reddit mentions of 2 Channel Stereo Audio Amplifier Receiver Mini Hi-Fi Class D Integrated Amp 2.0CH for Home Speakers 100W x 2 with Bass and Treble Control TPA3116(with Power Supply) - Fosi Audio TB10A

ha, I used this svs wireless adapter combined with a small 2 channel amp to run some rear speakers where I couldn't run wires in a wife approved manner. Works great.

yeah, its doable. I've got it setup right now and love it.

I've got these things:

Atrium 4 Speakers

Fosi Amplifier

SockitBox

and a 6 port surge strip.

I've got the strip, the amplifier and the CC in the Sockitbox, outdoors. plug the surge strip in and everything powers up, and I can cast to it. if you used a different amplifier that would work with the projector I'm sure it'd be fine.

I went this route personally /u/magew I really like this amp, it draws (a tested) 4 watts at idle

Note that ChromeCast Audios have been discontinued. The best you can do now is a Google Home with an aux cord, try and find the audios on ebay, or roll your own with a pi.

I also used a few Echos wired into these house zone, they also work well, but the Chromecast has more reliable whole house sync.

I am in the process of installing a similar setup. Went with the AirPort Express ($40 on eBay) and a separate amp connected (Fosi Audio TB10A, $70).

A separate AirPlay 2 receiver might work as well, Denon has options that are still cheaper than the Sonos one.

I just did multi-room audio with chromecast audio using this as the guide and am very happy with it - https://www.avsforum.com/forum/36-home-v-distribution/2966266-chromecast-audio-23-zone-whole-house-conversion-project.html

I ended up using these amps - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076P2VS9H/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Easier to add a sub to passive speakers and mini amp ( unless that motherboard has sub out )
Hook up amp via 3.5mm to rca cables

A different strategy would be to get an additional set of 8 ohm speakers and wire them in parallel so that you are running 4 ohms on each side. Just use a 12 volt (high amp) power supply. It seems counter-intuitive that Hifiberry is recommending lower voltage for lower ohms. I think they don't want it to overheat or something.

​

I have these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00MGQAH2M - I got mine for $85, but you can still get them for around $100.

​

They are fairly efficient too.

​

The idea here is to have speakers near each of your listening positions. There may be a font-back balance issue - but I am guessing that wiring a pot on each side could solve that. Left/right you fix via DSP (like volume too).

​

Question: once (and if) the Hifiberry amp dies, how are you going to get audio out of your Raspberry? Do you have a headphone jack or preouts somewhere already? There's a better way to do this if you have those, BTW.

​

If you just want a beater amp that will likely never die - get this - I have one and it seems pretty good: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076P2VS9H/

So if I’m playing video games or listening to a record fairly loudly but not at max knob it should still be powered enough?

I’m also wondering about what amp “frequency” I should be trying to pair with the micca’s. The fosi amp I posted (https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B076P2VS9H/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?smid=ATV3LXZ3ZXOW8&psc=1) says “20hz-20kHz) and the micca’s day “60-20khz)

Thank you so much. This may sound dumb but I have had the hardest time understanding this until now. I think I'm going to go with this polk. If you have the time, I would seriously appreciate just one more ELI5 on how where you would set the low pass (it will be paird with the Wharfedales), what the phase means, do you have to hook up both L and R if you have an amp w/ subout?. Lastly, my mini amp only has L and R outputs. Should I spend the money and get a new amp w/ sub out or run the regular speaker wire through the sub? Sorry for all the questions lol.

Can someone review this and make sure i'm not going to blow a sub? This is the amp i apparently need to make sure it is holds steady at 2 ohms.

Would this do the trick? One each for the patio, den, and master bedroom. Chromecast Audio attached to each one. I'm not blasting music for house parties, just ambiance for backyard life and study time in the den... and whatever time in the master. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076P2VS9H/ref=psdc_537344_t2_B06XZL2PQD

My living setup is my more expensive setup with Klipsch. I'm running a cheaper setup in the game room. Right now I have Boston Acoustics CR67s hooked up to Fosi 2 Channel.

Okay great! Would one of these work for my TV with a roku and chromecast hooked up? Essentially, would I be able to have all audio from my TV come out of the speakers? I think I can use my TVs 3.5mm audio out to the receiver and then anything played through the TV would have output to the speakers.

I was looking at this one on Amazon:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076P2VS9H/ref=cm_sw_r_other_apa_i_eCEMDbFRX0FZ7

I don't have a sound card or DAC in my PC. I do stream my music.

What is the difference between the AD13 and somthing like this that was on the list recomeded by the other user?

Is there an issue with the AD 13 being a 30 W amp when these speakers are rated for 100w?

Something to think about, for whole house audio it may be smarter to use an echo dot. It’ll give you great control and smart features that aren’t as accessible if you’re going to use AVR’s as the central “brains” of the system. In your situation I would get a small amp or
in-wall ampfor each pair of speakers. Then add an echo dot or echo input (or fire tv cube... or the show... or spot).

If you have passive speakers you are gonna need a phono pre-am like this. You will also need an audio amplifier like this to power the speakers. Recently set up a 45 station, and this set-up worked a treat with my Advent Loudspeakers.

Should be able to thread your speaker wire through a hole on the speaker terminals. If you buy some banana plugs you can affix those to your speaker wire to make it a little more plug and play.

You may want a 2 zone amp or one with more speaker outputs. Also probably should check to see what the speaker wattage and ohms rating is so you can find an amp that matches. My whole point was that you may be able to find a smaller class D amp that gets the job done in a quarter of the space than a larger stereo receiver.

I’m powering 4 in ceiling speakers off this little amp in my wife’s office, no Bluetooth but sounds great - 2 Channel Stereo Audio... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B076P2VS9H?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Ok m8, so after researching more, looks like MB42X is one of the best one out there and the bad review is from people who don't have subwoofer and they expect lower frequency from this speaker since I'm already going to get a Dayton 1000 sub, I believe MB42X is going to perfect for me. especially reviews say it performs really good on mid-range which is important for me since I watch a lot of movies. so here is my final list, can you tell me if I'm missing something like if the banana plug is correct (and how many of them I need?), and do I need the cable (no cable comes with the speaker?) and check for the AMP if it's good enough.

• Dayton 1000
  
  
• MB42X
  
  
• AMP 100w Fosi Audio TB10A https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B076P2VS9H
  
  
• Banana Plugs https://www.amazon.com/Monoprice-109436-Plated-Speaker-Banana/dp/B0097JLQVC/
  
  
• cable https://www.amazon.com/AmazonBasics-16-Gauge-Audio-Stereo-Speaker/dp/B006LW0WDQ/

Ok, I'm looking at these two now.

Also,you could always also choose to gift these together,would last a lifetime of sound,way greater value for money.I would get these but where Im at but import costs more.anyways,these are way better value for money IMO :

Reference 152s are pretty great for computer speakers. Don't hit the low bass, but can always add a subwoofer later. 5 year warranty, $139.99. $349.99 brand new.

​

Just get an external amp like FOSI or something else from Amazon. I did this for a short while, then eventually said the hell with it, and bought Vanatoo Transparent One Encores. Blew my budget a bit.
