Advice on small amp with bluetooth.

[Chr78]

Hey Guys.

Im thinkin of buing a amplifier with bluetooth option. It has to be small in size, but offcourse with power and clarity, detail, speed. You know, it has to sound nice and big. Right now i got my eye on the bluesound powernode or the nad bluetooth amp.

Recommend away!

Make sure you go for aptx Bluetooth:

* Quad Vena

* Chordette Maxx

* Pioneer P2-K

* Lots of name brand mini systems now coming with Bluetooth as well

* Alternatively buy any amp you like and add a small RCA or SPDIF Bluetooth receiver

Hi-fi Choice were very postive about the Myamp in their review. They said it sounded better than the NAD D3020.

This 'new generation' of amplifiers brings a second issue to the table.

Not only do they need to be auditioned to see how they react in your proposed system in respect of sound quality, but you very much need hands on to discover how well they behave functionally with respect to your particular needs.

Many users are, essentially, looking for plug and play solutions that everyone can use, not always the case with some products, you need to work out what your needs are and how best to get it.

What you are saying applies to everything you buy, not only the 'new generation' of amplifiers.
