Anyone tried these ?
T-Amp Tripath TA2024 2x15W Audio Digital Amplifier Board 320-600
Lists as "T-Amp Tripath TA2024 2x15W Audio Digital Amplifier Board". Needs power supply (12v 2amp), I have a DTA-1 think I can just use the one from that. Looks like a reworked DTA-1 or 2, but just at a glance, not sure.
Just wondering, looked neat for under 14 bucks.

Edit. You can get these cheaper on eBay with no shipping charges.

Yup. You'd be hard pressed to find it on ebay for more than $10 including shipping.
Excellent amp for 8 ohm speaker, not so much for 4 ohms but if that's a concern buy 2 and parallel the inputs and outputs.

Does that yield twice the available current? Does that have the effect if more wattage or just more power handling on the amp? Pardon my ignorance!

Whoop too late, just arrived today from PartsExpress. Still a little crisp / breaking in (or my ears are) but yup does sound great. Looks simpler, fewer parts than their Sonic Impact clone DTA-1 plus much easier to change ins, outs and pot.
Fun little amp for cheap, nice.
Actually good question KyleinCowichan, best to ask if wondering. (wondering too)

Yup that and the paralleling - I sort of get why but probably am incorrect - not enough to give good reliable answers - sorry would if I could.
The little TA-2024C amp is breaking in nicely - lost it's thin brittleness, filling out well. I guess some of my speakers are easy to drive too, seems to help.
Have a little PAiA Tube Head preamp that sounds really great with it. Purists might not be too thrilled with the approach, not sure, but it's been tons of fun for me. Great for listening boredom not-so-much fatigue. Handy for quick fine biasing the sound of various slightly fussy amp speaker etc. combinations. Really can open up the little T-amp with the right settings.

why isnt this any good for 4 ohm speakers?
The chip isn't designed for a 4 ohm load (or really for higher current draw than 3A) so efficiency drops significantly as a result.
The output filter on this amp is designed for 8 ohm loads so they will have nasty peaking in the high end with a 4 ohm load.
