I am surely wasting my time doing this, but I must:

My speakers are DAVIS ACOUSTICS MIA 20 , a French brand .

O nice. I like the front porting with a wide open port. So it does not rely so much on wall spacing for the ports to work when a rear ported speaker.

Nope a vintage Marantz is in a different class. I've had a vintage Marantz and it sounded good. But there are vintage Marantz one should stay away from unless they are collectors of Marantz. The quasi-complimentary design has issues and that is the one to stay away from.

Anyway I want a small amp , the size I showed you, I absolutely do not want a hifi size amp, I do not have the space .

I understand. Buy the chip amp, if you want warmth then use a PEQ for sound adjustments and you'll get warmth that way. Are you using a PC for the head unit?

Yes you are wasting your time , I know absolutely nothing about electronics, sorry but thanks !!!

Yes !!!

What a PEQ ? Equalization ?

 

[Doodski]

Yes !!!

OK good. Install this and then install this as a GUI for the PEQ and open the Peace EQ and disable auto updates so you don't lose setting when it auto updates and you can have all the warmth you like.

 

[Doodski]

A PEQ is a parametric equalizer for proper control of the sound. It's like a EQ but better.

 

[Doodski]

O and use the Peace EQ for adjusting stuff. It is the better method.

I already have an equalizer on my sound card !!!

 

[Doodski]

Oh OK. That should provide you with all the warmth in the sound that you want. For warmth cut the highs down a bit or boost the lows a bit and adjust the mids for your taste.

Yes it's what I do already, you can see it on my equalizer setting !!!

So between the two amps that I have proposed there is not one that you recommend more than the other, even for another reason ? Like the power or something else ...

 

[Doodski]

I like the SA300 more than the A50.

 

[godsmack50]

I like the SA300 more than the A50.

For what reason? Is the Infineon chipset better than the TPA ? More recent ?

 

[Doodski]

The SA300 has more features in the rear panel. It has USB input with a DAC. So you can connect it to your PC via the USB connection. It also has sub out and if you want warmth adding a sub will help big time.

yes I saw that, but the connect me only on the rca connector, and for the subwoofer I don't have enough space !!! Currently I have an Aiyima D03 but it has a problem with the lcd display so I have to change it for another amp

Ahhh IC. Too bad the Aiyima failed. Is the display dark?

According to you , there is a chipset that is better than the other between these two chipsets ?
