TPA3116d2 module from Aliexpress - Opinions

Words are cheap, refunds cost real money.

Certainly they are. I never created an account there. So I cannot comment on their practice in case of fake delivery.

@OP if you are interested in TPA3116 you can try searching for "BA100" on Ali. Used to use it for some bookshelfs, sounds great and dead quiet. They also sell it with 24v 5A supply so you dont have to do a lot of thinking. Turbowatch2 is absolutely right though, you might want to change the SMD resistor to put it in lower gain mode. On high gain i never turned it above 2/10 volume and there was slight noise, so that was a pointless tradeoff.

Hi everyone ,
thank you all for your posts and informations in this thread.


I don't know much about class D modules, Chips or known boards,
I just needed a 30 to 40 watts at 8 ohm module for a DIY project and found these boards in Aliexpress.


I had already ordered before seeing the posts about Fake boards.
I guess the board I ordered will be a fake also.


Could you please direct me to where can I buy a real one?

Hi,
I received my board and as expected it's a fake,
the chip in it it's a 16 pin IC and 32 pins like the TPA3116d2 should have.

I guest it's useless, I didn't know about the fake ones before I ordered.

Does anyone knows where can I buy a real one? Any safe sources?

I need an amplifier that is able to do 30w RMS (or more) at 8ohms,
any other modules that you might recommend?

Thank you so much

I don't know where you are in the world, but if you're in Europe, this is a good source:
