The TPA3116D2 is the most written about "chip amp" in recent times. There is a reason for this.  The TPA3116D2 gets very close to the Single Ended Triode tube sound, but with multiple times more power.   Some who have bought my amplifiers have preferred this mighty chip to their multi-thousand dollar 45 and 2A3 triode tube amps.   The TPA3116D2 does so many things right.  Imaging, bass depth, bass punch, spooky-real midrange and sweet, sweet highs. Several of my customers have described the sound as have qualities of a tube amp and a solid state amp.   Somewhere in between.   


This amp works best with speakers that are efficient.  Single driver, crossover-less speakers or 95db and above multi-driver speakers.  I've sold over one hundred amps and never had a return due to someone not liking the sound.  Most mass manufactured TPA3116D2 are built with inexpensive hardware, cheap, even counterfeit electronic parts.  Many have very inexpensive wall wart style power supplies.   

This TPA3116D2 is built with many boutique audiophile parts sourced from reputable vendors.  A built-in linear power supply is featured, using a high quality EI style transformer that is known for it's mains filtering properties.  The power is filtered by both Elna Silmic II & Panasonic FC capacitors.  Binding posts are WBT style premium gold plated.  Neutrik RCA inputs.  Dueland oil impregnated, cotton insulated tinned copper wire on the outputs.  This wire was manufactured by Dueland to closely match the properties of vintage Western Electric cotton insulated wire.  Fully shielded Belden Brilliance input wire.  An Alps Blue Velvet volume pot, which is used by many high end brands, performs the volume control duties in this amp.   Finally, attention to detail in the form of isolating the amplifier circuit board, is accomplished by mounting the board on neoprene pads.  

Amp dimensions are roughly 10"x10"x8".   As can be seen in the photo, the finish on the front panel has dark streaks in two places.  This amplifier is priced accordingly.

My screen name is "Cervelorider", but I'm the proprietor of Fleawatt.  This amplifier is new. Shipping is a flat fee of $35 via Fed Ex or USPS to US addresses only.  PayPal only.    




"Lifetime Warranty".  As long as I'm alive, I'll fix the amp if anything were to ever go wrong.  

These are not a mass manufactured amplifiers made on an assembly line.  These are lovingly, one at a time, hand built amps by a fellow audiophile.  Each one is burned in for 48 hours prior to shipping.  All the benefits of knowing who built it go along with ownership.  I'm always just an e-mail away to answer any questions you might have.
