Looking for some suggestions for some no-fuss, great sounding amps on a budget.
I'm throwing together an active set of bookshelves for a friend and am using good quality drivers. I need a clean 50 watts per channel (4 channels total) at minimum and am limited to a budget of around $75 per channel. Drivers are all 4 ohm.
I've played with a few of the Sure tpa3116/3110 boards which are nice little units, but suffer from the dreaded turn on/off thump. I can deal with this at home, but would prefer to avoid this issue in this particular setup.
I stumbled across these on Ebay.. not sure what to think. The lm3886 may be a bit dated.. I am not sure. 40W 40W LM3886 Mini Amplifier Machine Home Audio Amplifier Machine | eBay
Also, only around 40 watts per channel (assuming 4ohm). Cutting it close.
I've used a few of the topping/smsl amps which are great for the price, but I would prefer a little more juice 🙂
Any suggestions? Looking for completed boards if at all possible. I would prefer not to modify in this instance. The Tpa3116 would be fine solution, if a board exists that does not suffer from the power on/off thump.

What about these connex modules? They wont need additional heatsinks like lm3886 does. They also sell power supplies to go with it. Connexelectronic
