With a Cirrus Logic CS5341 converter and an SA9023 embedded USB interface, the SMSL Q5 Pro (latest revision by the manufacturer) is a particularly gifted amplifier.
It integrates a Texas Instruments TAS5508 + TAS5342 amplifier module delivering 2x 45W at 4 Ohms and 2x 25W at 8 Ohms.
This pro version now includes a Subwoofer output (SW OUTPUT) specially designed for subwoofers.
Versatile, it allows you to assign it 4 sources (stereo 3.5 jack, Coaxial S/PDIF, Toslink Optics and Micro USB).
It has a digital display and a remote control for easy control.
Its internal architecture as well as the choice of materials and finishes are all assets that make the Q5 a particularly efficient amplifier suitable for a wide range of configurations.
