I'm looking for recommendations on one of the cheap chinese mini desktop amps for powering 2 8ohm speakers (nht classic 3s). I don't mind replacing some components if necessary but I'm looking for a "finished" build because I want a decent looking case and that seems like the easiest way.
This one pretty much has everything I want in an amp according to the claims, including an integrated headphone amp but I'm dubious as to the quality since they haven't sold many units:

I know the power ratings are way oversold. My speakers' sensitivity is 86db so I'm assuming that if it can put out 30 clean watts per channel it should be more than enough since I never listen at really high volumes.
Is there a general consensus on the quality of these mini amps, which are the best etc on this board?
