It is small and handsome little package with a ton of functionality: View attachment As you see, in addition to functions I mentioned, it even has Bluetooth included.

And moving magnet turntable input. It is a dream product for a frustrated marketing guy in a high-end audio company like PS Audio, wanting mass market product that appeals to the "younger audience. If you hold the button down, the LED color changes from purple to white, indicating bass boost is on.

The rotary encoder is poorly programmed to have linear and slow response, making it very, very slow to change volume. To go from low to high volume you may have to turn it seven or eight times! We live in a digital age with music that is fast to access and comes at all levels. Having the ability to quickly change volume is important. Input selection is old school mechanical selector.

I like the clear labels. Joined Nov 22, Messages Likes Joined Jun 19, Messages Likes Just bought a Sprout yesterday - my hearing impression is completely different, sound is extremely crisp and clear, it may be musical but clarity is there. Replaced a receiver which had seen better days and the improvement is clearly noticeable.

However I would not want to compare a hearing experience with hard data. Hoping you had a good unit. Joined Jul 24, Messages 1 Likes 0. It's gone, so I was hoping the Sprout would be a great thing.

I have a couple of questions: 1 How is the phono stage? I know the reviewer did not test it, but this is a big part of the whole idea of this unit. These questions are serious, if anyone has a useful answer: I am not trying to be a wise guy, I had a situation and sold my best gear, and am trying to build a system, and am looking at the usual suspects, Cambridge, NAD, Rotel.

I loved that phono stage on the 5. GTsmokeya84 Member Forum Donor. The Sprout looks and feels nice, it's very well featured and it's audible performance is fine. For the price, if you like the look then I'd say go for it as regardless of measurements it will be pretty much perform like any other amp of that rating. That said, the Yamaha WXA50 is another nice looking well IMO amp also well featured and which can be found here at least for about half the price of the Sprout.

I've seen a couple of decent deals on the Cyrus One HD, again on paper should cost a lot more, doing pretty much the same thing as the Sprout but with a nice form factor and feel.

ELAC make a lovely looking amp which again is doing pretty much the same thing as the Sprout. I suspect none of these amplifiers will be that impressive if measured, but all of them will be perfectly good audibly. Their DACs appear to be well implemented and transparent I honestly think it is harder to find one that isn't and amplifiers aren't DACs. No, the measurements aren't anywhere near what we expect from a DAC but even cheap Behringer power amps sound fine whatever the measurements might say.

I think there is a danger in becoming too focused on measurements, at the risk of sounding like an advocate of "good enough" once a component achieves the necessary performance to perform in a way which does not introduce audible degradation then it has achieved its purpose and the part of the chain that really needs thought is the speaker and how it is positioned and set up.

I was happy and any differences with the LS50W marginal at best. Joined Aug 3, Messages Likes The question of price-performance ratio -- AKA "bang for the buck" -- comes up here.

Going by the same laid-back subjective criterion, one wonders why the McGowans went with that IcePower module rather than one of the surprisingly good IMO Class D chips TI has been cranking out by the lorry load over the past few years -- my suspicion is that a single reviewer cracking open the case to a reveal mass-produced IC at the heart of a "high-end" maker's product would far too clearly reveal "The Emperor's New Clothes.

In the case of amplifiers, amplifier design seems to be increasingly about implementing OEM Class D modules, not that there is anything wrong with that. However, buying audio gear isn't just about the audible quality. Things like industrial design, build quality, tactile feel, feature set, confidence in aftersales support all matter. And sometimes, well, people just like something.

In the case of the Sprout or indeed similar amplifiers from Elac, TEAC, Cyrus, Yamaha etc yes you can do it cheaper, and if you just want minimum cost do it cheaper. However they're not especially expensive as hifi goes, and are offer good industrial design, features and probably better aftersales support than cheap generic amplifiers from Ali etc. Soniclife Major Contributor Forum Donor.

Joined Jan 8, Messages 2, Likes 3, At the budget end a Yamaha AS , AS or AS is a no brainer, with really excellent measurements, a fair amount of power and in their current incarnation also digital inputs. They also look pretty classy, though a bit bulky. The Hypex amps can be tucked out of sight. Bruce Morgen said:. I think what's emerging with this cheap and for most folks entirely adequate IC-based audio gear that the definition of "what's expensive as hifi goes" is sliding rapidly downhill in price, at least when it comes to electronics.

I wouldn't disagree with any of that, and personally I'm not sure I'd go above the price point of the amps being discussed in this thread for a new item.

That is partly because I think they offer all the performance I need and it is better to put money into speakers and room set up than an amp or DAC , and partly because I think most modern gear will be fix by replacement.

And in some ways this is less about the manufacturer than the seller. This is not about being anti-US or questioning their customer care, but sending stuff back overseas is a PITA and expensive keeping in mind many companies require you to pay shipping upfront and then may or may not reimburse the cost, and if you're not happy with things what are you going to do, really?

If I buy from a local dealer and I'm not going to look at local dealers through rose tinted glasses I can just take it back to the shop and if it goes wrong I know the various mechanisms available to seek redress. A lesson I'm reminded of with a pair of expensive headphones I bought from the UK direct sales channel of the manufacturer. Last edited: Sep 20, Juwieh Member Forum Donor. GGroch said:. I had not seen the Stereophile Sprout Review , but it is very unusual for Stereophile amp reviews to have no measurements.

I have left it running for hours at moderate volumes and it is always warm, no hot. The only problem is the postsale, since in the manual, brochures, specs, even in Reviews of magazines on the internet I have claimed both by email and the support of PS Audio, without any specific response.

Will ship within Canada! With Sprout, I always enjoyed the way I felt when a song ended and the next one began. The original PS Audio Sprout, which I reviewed in the May issue, showed newcomers an easier, smaller way to amplify music recordings in the home. However, the price trumps all the other advantages of Sprout. Excellent value for money, and a really nice amp regardless of the cost. There are no hard edges to the unit, which adds a visual and tactile warmth.
