Dayton DTA-1 mini T-amp - anyone use ?

dee1949

I have used a Lepai mini T-amp for several years. Sound was fine but always had a HUM that was noticeable at higher volumes. Well , for fun, and instead of going drinking with my friends. I put the money into a Dayton DTA-1. I am amazed. No hum and much cleaner sound for $35.00. The cost of 3 Martinis at a bar.

This sucker plays plenty "LOUD" and clean sound




.. Got carried away with the NEW sound and ordered a tube preamp/buffer below:

... haven't gotten them yet, but for the cost of drinking out, can't go wrong.

I live in Washington DC. A Martini cost $10.00, dinner out with drinks and tip about $60.00. (Cheapest)

Gotta luv new technology. I am sure there is much better !!!! But the journey is necessary and FUN !!

.. Highly recommend , and on plus side, it can be powered by 8 AA batteries.

.... and for you youngsters with kids. Add a Optoma PT105 or PT110 led projector for Summer fun with out door movie night. Its Led ... long life but only in dim lit rooms or at night.

Cheap Fun !!!
