Okay let see My detailed reviews... First Impressions – Looks and Feels Solid! Right when I unboxed the Aiyima A80, I could tell it was a step up from their older stuff. The metal body feels sturdy, not cheap, and the knobs (volume, bass, treble) turn nice and smooth, no wobbly junk here. The LCD screen is a game-changer! It actually shows what's going on—input, volume, even the Bluetooth codec. No more guessing if you're on the right setting. The lcd could be better with better colors Well go áreas to the sound test I test this amp with my Sony and pioneer speakers and let me told you those Came Alive! I hooked this little beast up to two of my favorite budget bookshelf speakers: 1. Sony SSCS5 (bright and detailed) 2. Pioneer BS22-LR (warm and smooth) With the Sony SSCS5: - The highs were crisp but not harsh—the treble knob helped tone down the Sony's sometimes sharp sound. - Vocals sounded super clear—like Norah Jones was right in the room. - Bass was tight and punchy, but don't expect earthquake-level lows without a sub. With the Pioneer BS22-LR: - These speakers love power, and the A80's 80W (at 4Ω) made them sing. - Jazz and acoustic tracks (think Diana Krall) sounded full and rich. - The bass boost added just enough oomph without making things muddy. Bluetooth? Way better than I expected! Streaming from Spotify/Tidal sounded almost as good as wired. No lag for movies either. This is a good difference between this to the a07 model that sound great too.. --- A80 vs. A07 Max – What's the Upgrade? I've got the Aiyima A07 Max too (great little amp), but the A80 is definitely better: - LCD screen (A07 has nada—just a tiny light) - Built-in Bluetooth 5.0 (A07 needs a dongle or a Bluetooth received with dac... - Optical input (perfect for hooking up to a TV) - Bass & treble knobs (A07 is just volume) - Cleaner sound (less hiss at high volumes) The A07 Max is simpler (just RCA in, no frills), but the A80 is like the upgraded version, more features without losing sound quality. Well, my Final Thoughts – Worth Buying? If you want a small, powerful, do-it-all amp that makes budget speakers like the Sony SSCS5 and Pioneer BS22LR sound way better than they should, the Aiyima A80 is a killer deal. It's not "high-end audiophile" level, but for the price? It's insane. Who's it for? - People who want Bluetooth + wired options - TV/movie lovers who need optical input - Anyone upgrading from a basic amp (like the A07) who wants more control Who should skip it? - If you only need RCA inputs, the A07 Max is cheaper. - If you need crazy power (for huge speakers), look at bigger amps. Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ (5/5) – Best budget amp I've used this year! 🔥 (Pro tip: Add a small subwoofer if you want more bass. The A80 handles 2.1 setups like a champ!)

So many good things to say about this amp. The noise floor is very low compared to my 2010's Pioneer receiver; with the volume 100%, I could not hear any hiss, this was one of the first things I immediately noticed. I compared this amp to the 3E A7 and the (2x) Fosi V3 mono blocks, both of these amps have two TPA3255 amplifier chips compared to the Aiyima which has only one. The Aiyima gets just as loud as these other amps because these other amps are limited by gain, not by power. The only time their higher power rating comes into play is if you're cranking the bass, or driving a low ohm subwoofer. For running main speakers you won't notice any added power or volume using a these amps with dual TPA3255 vs. this amp with a single TPA3255. I did notice a slightly fuller sound with the E3 A7 amp, but barely perceptible. I eventually did go with the A7 instead of the A80 because the A80 does not turn on when power is turned on, and I didn't want to have to manually press power each time. The auto off feature turned the power off even at low listening volumes. Another reason I didn't keep the A80 is because I use an Amazon Fire stick TV for streaming, and the Fire stick remote doesn't have an IR profile for Aiyima. To get around this I built an IR Translator using an Arduino. I have a youtube video, software download, and 3d printable housing if you are interested. Still I think the A80 is an amazing product. It has balanced inputs which I used to connect an upgraded DAC and room correction EQ (Arc Studio). I love that this has bass and treble adjustments, and there is a bass treble button on the remote, you don't have to dig through menus to access them. The display looks nice. It doesn't run as hot as the E3 A7, despite being smaller size. The size stacks up perfectly with my SMSL D6s DAC and Arc Studio EQ.

Context: i am looking to replace an aging “nova 150” connected to kef q150 in a desktop setting. Reasons the nova is too big for a desktop and developed popping noise indicative of aging caps. Opinion: Design: beautiful, pleasing to the eyes. 5 stars Controls: intuitive and quick. Changing inputs, visuals, tone are quick and easy. Volume is very precise, almost 10 turns from zero to 100% makes it perfect for desktop setting. 5 stars Sound quality: A80 matches the 10x expensive nova. In fact the DAC inside is, to my ears, significantly better than the 10yo nova DAC. 5 stars given my goal Power output: falls short of claims. It supposed to match or exceed the nova. The reality is that in comparison it feels underpowered especially with the low sensitivity KEFs. I have klipsch THX which are better match. This is a problem because in desktop setting I need a lot of current with very low voltage, to energize the Kefs on low volume. I am not saying is bad. I am just comparing it to the $1500 (at the time of purchase) nova.: 3.5 stars What made me return it: I experimented with smsl su-1 dac and boy oh boy. This thing was made for q150. Absolutely awesome sound, on those specific speakers, audibly better than the 5x more expensive smsl do300ex and in completely different category than the a80 dac. But then if I am using the su-1 I don’t need integrated amp, just a power block in front of the su-1. So I am returning it for a simple power amp. Conclusion: excellent all in one piece rivaling 10x more expensive class d integrated amps 5 years old or older. Not the best match with q150, excellent match with all kinds of klipsch. Cons: Its getting rather hot and fast. When this does not pose an immediate problem, I am afraid it may lead to relatively quick degradation of the semiconductors inside. Just sayin.

This little guy is amazing! Small and powerful, easy on the wallet and a pleasure to the ears. I have my turntable attached to it with RCA connectors. My phone connected via blue tooth. Both sound flawless and clean. Highly recommended!

Fantastic little amp. I used to be a snob about amps, and still have some cool ones in the stable, but these little Chinese class d guys are just so convenient and sound so good. I bought the Aiyima more for the DAC and other features, but it truly punches above its weight. I’m using it with some Elac 6 inch bookshelves and the pre out to a 10 inch subwoofer for a simple vinyl listening setup. I noticed it’s very similar in price, looks, and specs to another amp called the Ampapa. Both have some cool features that the other does not though. They both have a tiny led screen that can be used as meters. I think the ampapa has more options for what you want your meters to look like, but besides that it appears the same. The Ampapa has swappable op amps for people who like to tinker, a cool glass top to see inside, and the thing that caught my attention the most, a true sub out. The Aiyima doesn’t have these features, but I don’t see myself tinkering with op amps so I don’t care about that. It has a pre out which can be ok for subwoofers but doesn’t allow you to tailor your system as much as the Ampapa. This is the only thing I miss and honestly the only feature that kept me looking at the Ampapa. What really sold me on the Aiyima is the DAC. It’s a pretty good DAC and it’s nice to have it built in. This makes the Aiyima more versatile. I am able to run optical out of my tv with music apps to the Aiyima when I don’t want to listen to vinyl. Overall, I love this little guy. I have other Aiyima amps without features as well and they have all been great. If it had the high pass filter on the speaker outputs like the Ampapa, it would be perfect.

This DAC is amazing - upgraded from a basic headphone jack AMP to using this with a direct USB connection from my PC and it sounds amazing. There is zero white noise and the sound is crisp and clear. I can crank it up louder than I can stand to listen with zero distortion. I'm using small ish speakers (Polk RM8), I've got it set at volume 50 playing music, at full volume it fills the house and I can't be in the same room. So subjectively it's got quite a bit of kick in terms of power output. No audible distortion all the way up except for the speakers themselves, and even that is less than I expected. Bluetooth connection is also crisp and clear, signal works on the other side of the house through multiple walls. I can't tell the difference over Bluetooth vs PC using the same hifi songs (44khz) I also really like the box itself, the screen display is really cool and the knob and controls are really intuitive. It also feels very sturdy and professional. Overall 10/10

I’ve been using the Aiyima A80 for about a week now, and I’m really happy with it. I was looking for an all-in-one amp with good sound quality and enough input options to connect to multiple sources, and this one checked all the boxes. The sound is clean and detailed, and it drives my Kanto Yu 5.25” speakers with no problem. I’m not an audiophile, but I can definitely hear the difference compared to the small amp I was using before. The built-in DAC is also a nice bonus—it makes music from my computer sound noticeably better. Bluetooth works well, and I like that it supports higher-quality codecs. The display is a nice touch, although it’s a bit small from across the room. Still, it looks good and doesn’t feel cheap, but the sensitivity is low and requires ample volume to really visualize the effects. Overall, this is a great amp for the price. If you want something compact that still delivers good sound and has a lot of input options, I’d recommend giving it a try.

I am no audiophile but I have a plex server and plexamp for listening to my >1000 albums, and >100,000 songs. I was using a Sony 7.1 home theater receiver that I set to stereo, but it sounded a little muddled. I bought this and man what a difference! The sound is clear and crisp, and it has true stage presence...I listen to this little beauty every day and to think this little amp is more powerful than my Sony (early 2000's) receiver that was at the time the most powerful receiver you could buy. I like you can adjust bass and treble from the remote (but what if I lose the remote?) and the sound bar's are an extra bonus. If you are on the fence about this thing, don't be...It out performs the other guys who cost twice as much! It's compact size let's me put it on top of my speaker (using a rubber mat for isolation) and I am using floor standing 3-way speakers and they are so much more alive with this thing. Don't hesitate you wont be sorry! Incredible value for money and easy to setup and use!

Très bon ampli , les basses ,aigus et médium tout est bien en place , les voix sont très bien retranscrite . Couplé à des dynaudio émit II 10 qui demandent beaucoup de courant cette ampli Aiyima A80 s’en sort très bien et les alimentent sans problème . Je possède aussi l’Aiyima D03 qui est aussi très bon , l’A80 chauffe beaucoup comparé au D03 surtout lorsque l’on laisse allumer l’écran avec l’equaliser ou les 2 autres au choix disponible C’est vraiment la seule chose que j’ai à reprocher à çette ampli . tester avec d’autres enceinte de 4 olhms contre 6 pour les dynaudio l’ampli chauffe tout autant . Donc a voire dans le temps mais sinon je conseille vraiment çette ampli qui a un son excellent et qui vaut bien des amplis de class AB bien plus coûteux .

Piccolo e potente ampli quasi tutto fare, ogni giorno che passa sembra suonare meglio Dal giorno dell'acquisto non lo mai spento per capire che resistenza a Ebbene dopo una settimana è sempre lineare dinamico e potente Sia con il lettore cd che con il Bluetooth Era quello che stavo cercando lo uso in garage con le loonpo l42 (modificate) e subwoofer edifier t5 con cavi skw e audio quest. Fenomenale qualità con prezzo di pochi euro (speriamo che duri nel tempo)

I have been a happy user of Aiyima A07Pro (it's going to my teen's bedroom), so I am not new to the D-Class amps party and knew what to expect. I am pleasantly surprised though - the A80 elevates the experience to another level. Sound quality Aiyima, from the times of the first A07, has always impressed with sound quality. Independent measurements of channel separation, distortion and noise level show excellent values, but the load dependency always lurked in the shadows. Fear no more - the post filter feedback loop tackles those as well. In the end you get a pocket amplifier with reference quality. Amplifier has enough precision to drive speakers at a lower volume, but there also is enough punch in this little guy to shake even my relatively big room. Features and quality Not only is the sound excellent, but the overall feel of the amp is great. Build quality is stellar - very nice weight to the unit, good haptics when turning the wheel. The display is big and clear as well, and it can get very bright too. The multitude of inputs is very impressive. You have regular RCA, as well as TRS for symmetrical analogue connection. There is coaxial and optical SPDIF. There is a subwoofer out. There is a good implementation of Bluetooth and my personal best - USB-C. Super Easy to Use with my phone! The most awesome thing is how easy it was to connect from my phone. Less and less phones have analogue audio output and it starts to become a nuisance. Not here - Bluetooth works well and thankfully is not visible unless you select BT as input (the nasty neighbor will not connect to your amp uninvited). I am however super happy how the USB connection worked. I used an ordinary USB-C <-> USB-C cable to connect - and without any fuzz, configuration or going through options - fantastic sound from the speakers. No BT losses, no noises from the cables. The digital sound goodness in all its glory. What not to like? There are a few very minor issues though. Two actually. The menu navigation is a bit awkward: there is no dedicated BACK button, and you have to double-push the volume dial to go back. You don't use it frequently, but when you actually have to, it is weird. Second issue I have is that the display won't turn off completely. You can turn the brightness down from 100% to 10% in 10 steps - so it is not annoying at all. An "auto-off" mode would be nice here though. Summary Overall, the Aiyima A80 is a great little amp that really delivers. It sounds fantastic, looks and feels solid, and has all the connections you could want. It's easy to use, especially with a phone, and packs enough power for serious listening. Sure, the menu could be easier to use and it’d be nice if the display could turn off completely, but those are small complaints. If you want a powerful, great-sounding amp without spending a fortune, the A80 is a smart buy.

もともとTEAC I-503を使っていましたが壊れてしまったのでA80を買ってみました。 当方はアンサンブルもアニソンも雑食で、できれば守備範囲の広いアンプを希望していましたが、ドンピシャでした。 音の傾向はソリッドですが、調整により高音低音を引き出せるので、困ることはないと思います。 この機種はボリュームが押せて、メニュー操作をすることができます。 さらにレベルメーターのデザインも変更できたりします。 これは地味ながらとても良い、デスクトップにはできるだけ物を置きたくないので、小さなアンプだけで完結できるのは、とにかくありがたいです。 その反面アダプタは大きめ。 しかしアダプタのおかげで、見た目以上のパワーを持っていると思えば頼もしさすら感じます。 耐久性に関しては未知数ですが、長い付き合いができるように、大事に使いたいと思います。

Warto. DAC 32bit, auto off po 5 minutach, wzbudza się bardzo szybko na DAC. Do tego bardzo estetyczny, bez zbędnych guzików, gra rewelacyjnie.
