Advantages: loud, good sound, looks nice Disadvantages: over heats, when really loud, does sound distorted
...an amp, he brought the acoustic solutions sp100, for £45, it didnt come with a box, or instructions but it is very easy to use when you get use to it and is very light for transporting. He only used it for around two months, then desided to sell it to me, for £30, and what a bargin it was.

Ive had this amp now, for around two years, in its time, it has been connected to many speakers, ranging from 12 inch subs, to floorstands, both with brilliant sound qaulity.

The amp has a LCD display screen, which makes the amp look professional and easy to use when changing bass, trebble, and balance (left/right speaker) by pressing the fuction button on the front of the amp. The amp also incudes 6 inputs, Phono, Tuner, Tape/Aux, CD, DVD, and DAB.
This amp is very stylish, its a very nice silver colour, which makes this amp look very modern, it also has a wavy line on the front of the amp starting from the top left corner, going to the middle, right side, which makes this amp look very professional, when used for seprates.
For the money, i personally dont think you can get a better amp for under £100 brand new, this amp can be purchased from Argos, and Richersounds for around £80-£100
I would recommend this to people which like there music loud, in there bedroom, or living room, or simply if people have partys often. This amp, is not made to be loud for a constant amount of time, due to overheating, which i have experienced after around one-two hours of loud music.
overall, its a good amp, cheap, but very good qaulity for money, you can also purchase a DAB, and CD player, which suits this amp, to create a neat looking stereo. Out of 10, i would give this amp 9, as it does have an over heating problem, which does not effect play, but does scare me from time to time.
Dimensions: Depth 9.06 in.
Height 3.15 in.
Width 16.93 in.
Other: no remote control included. also includes headphones jack socket (when headphones in, speakers will still play, but can be turned off in funtion mode). does not let you attenuate some of the phono inputs.
Advantages: Good quality, good value, attractive, multi-functional. Disadvantages: You get a pathetic wire for DAB/ Tuner antenna
I bought the Acoustic Solutions Amplifier SP101 over a year ago. I bought it because I thought it was good value for money and took the risk not knowing what Acoustic Solutions brand was like. So, now I have bought the DAB part of it and I think it's excellent. It has never broken down on me and I would highly recommend this.
It is attractive but not overtly and looks and works as good as any Sony or expensive brand. Argos is pretty much the cheapest ... ...dukebox into it, also by Acoustic Solutions. The only down side being you get a ridiculously rubbish antenna for DAB/ Tuner which is basically a piece of wire about a metre long.
I bought it for £80 from Argos. Compared to Sony etc this is a bargain, a 1 year warranty is standard from the manufacturer. ...
