SMSL Q5 PRO Stereo Amplifier USB Optical Coaxial DAC with Subwoofer Output 2x40W
 

Enjoy all the best your music has to offer with the SMSL Q5 PRO DAC amplifier. This all-in-one piece of technology starts with a handsome, brushed aluminum case and fills it with a DAC and powerful stereo amplifier; and the wireless remote controls it all. Connect the Q5 PRO to your computer via the USB or to your TV with the digital coaxial/optical input and stream music and media at an impressive 192 kHz/24-bit sample rate. Keep in mind that digital decoding is only for 2-channel PCM sources, the Q5 Pro will not decode 5-channel surround sound digital sources. A 3.5 mm input jack is located on the rear panel for analog signal input.

This high-powered amplifier delivers 40 watts per channel at 4 ohms and 20 watts per channel into 8 ohms. Use the Q5 PRO on your desktop, bookshelf, or anywhere high-quality sound is desired.

Control the Q5 PRO from anywhere in the room with the included wireless remote. Functions like power on/off, volume, input selection, and even EQ settings are all controlled by this easy-to-use remote. So sit back and relax knowing you can dial in that perfect sound.

The Q5 PRO is newly equipped with a line level subwoofer output. A built-in low pass filter is set at 200 Hz with a slope of 24 dB. This means you only send your the low frequencies your powered subwoofer can handle. Adjustment of the volume control automatically controls the volume of the powered subwoofer for convenient operation.

Includes: SMSL Q5 PRO amplifier DAC, wireless remote control with battery, power adapter, and 4 ft. Micro USB cable.

Note: It is normal for the amplifier to produce a small spark if you plug the power supply into the amplifier with live voltage. To avoid this small spark insert the power plug into the jack found on the rear of the amplifier, then insert the AC plug into your wall outlet.

Brian's endorsement
I use one of these in our living room. It drives a pair of Omni speakers. A Mac Mini is connected by USB, a TV via Optical, and a turntable via Analog. Highly recommended.
