Looking for small 2 ch amp with sub pre-out

[ck42]

Looking for something like an A07 but that has a sub pre-out.
Just for desktop use so any of the Class D 40-50W/ch with decent performance would do. It's the sub pre-out that is really making things difficult.

Otherwise, I'm looking at using a LOC into a stereo to mono adapter to feed the sub.

Any other suggestions...I'm all ears.

Fosi Audio BT20A Pro Amplifier Review

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Fosi Audio BT20A stereo class D amplifier based on TI TPA3255 IC. It was sent to me by the company and costs US $99.99 with 32 volt power supply. Despite its low cost, the case gives a feeling of quality. I am not usually fan of tone controls in...

This review just went up in the last 24 hours, very solid performance and has a 3.5mm pre-out which you should be able to run to a sub without issue. Just use the sub's crossover since you'll presumably be getting a full-band signal out of that 3.5mm output.

[edit] This review specifically mentions using the 3.5mm output to connect a sub.

Looks interesting. A little larger footprint than what I'd like and don't need the balanced inputs or LCD, but otherwise looks nice. Thanks.

Just now wondering about this...but for the all important pre-out that I want, does the pre-out on the BT20A Pro follow the volume control level...or is it a straight pass-through that is always at full line level?

I believe it's controlled by the volume control or one would think the Prime Cables review would mention it. The product manual is not yet on the website, though. Might want to consider e-mailing Fosi to confirm.

In the review thread on ASR someone asked about this and another user confirmed it is volume-controlled, but I'm not sure where they got that info.

Douk Audio H7 Amplifier Review

This is a review and detailed measurements of the Douk Audio H7 stereo class D desktop amplifier. It was kindly drop shipped to me by a member and costs US $144. Right away we see differentiation in the form of the nice looking VU meter. Not only that there is a control to set it sensitivity...

You can hook up dual subwoofers and there is a VU meter you can stare at while listening to music (!)

Yeah, saw that review the other day. Might have worked but I really don't want to deal with the separate volume knob control. For my desk, that would be really inconvenient.
