SPECIAL NOTE This MA170 Model DOES NOT INCLUDE A 12VDC POWER SUPPLY, you can use most any 12VDC Power Supply that meets the specifications found below in the under SPECIFICATIONS, or can be wired to a 12 Volt battery using a DC power cable (sold separately). In addition, you will most likely require a RCA to 3.5mm cable to input audio signal into the MA170 Amplifier. Should you not have a compatible 12VDC Power Supply, the MA170 is also available with a 12VDC power supply (MA170+) - simply look for it under the Kinter desertcart Store for details. If you have any questions, we are here to help. Getting started is easy with the MA17 amp, however this model does not include a power supply. Once you have located a 12VDC Power Supply that is compatible and meets the specifications listed below, simply plug it into the DC input found on the rear of the amplifier and then into any AC outlet. Connect 14-16 Gauge speaker wire between your speakers and the spring loaded terminals on the back panel, connect a source device using the stereo RCA jacks, turn the power switch to ON and the tiny MA170 Amplifier is ready to go. Using the separate Bass and Treble controls you can customize your sound. A large front knob controls the volume and is surrounded by a changing LED lighting. Mounting tabs found on the sides of the MA170 amp make it great for DIY projects or other applications where having a fixed location is required.

But at 12v and 2 amps it seems it should be more around 24-36 watts, and back says "100 watts". Thoughts?** A: The specs rate this amp at 18w per channel into 4 ohm speakers using a 12v 2amp power supply. They don't say if that is RMS or peak power. Forget AxV=W, even the led bulbs burn power. I'd expect 10-15w into some inexpensive speakers that aren't pushed to hard. **Q: Can I use it as a preamplifier? I was thinking to connect the output to a poweramplifer step after this one.** A: No, the outputs are already amplified. They would blow the inputs to your Poweramp...if the inputs are rca connector and standard audio output.Guess I would ask why you would want to do this... Although some power amps do allow stereo output for input.... You would have to check the spec on your power amp to see if it allows amplified inputs.... They will usually be speaker terminal inputs for speaker wire. While this amp is nice, one should not expect it to shake your auto! **Q: What size plug does this use and what is the polarity? Wiring to 12v auto batter not 110v home.** A: According to the manual the plug is described as: DC plug size: 2.1 mm x 5.5 mm DC input polarity: Center positive **Q: Is it possible to hook Bluetooth up to this amp?** A: Indeed. I have $5 Bluetooth receiver I picked up at Autozone one day feeding it via a 3.5mm strereo (headphone) to RCA cord. It's pushing two 5.25 Pyle marine speakers in a splash down, DIY, mobile unit made from an old cooler. Sound is clean, especially after some tweaking with a good amp/equalizer app on my phone.
