The media could not be loaded. I'll start with a quick statement before diving into details - this thing is killer! I did an initial trial and burn-in on a set of old BIC Acoustech bookshelf speakers quickly set up on a shelf in my office and steaming Spotify over BT. My first impression was that this little amp was getting *way* more out of these speakers than my old Denon receiver did! They sounded full and warm, and gave me a soundtrack while playing RPGs on my PC for hours. It pulled off something that's very rare for me without even touching the tone controls...I left it alone and just enjoyed!Before going into my more in-depth testing on my primary living room setup, I have to make a note on the build of this little guy. For starters, the packaging is impeccable. Everything is compact but entirely snug. The included genuine GE JAN tubes (Made in USA!) are excellent, and generally regarded as right at the cusp of diminishing returns in cost/performance. I use a different model of the same tubes in my primary system's line pre-amp. The fact that they're included is a massive plus in that you don't have to waste money and a set of tubes to go and replace a bottom-tier set right out of the gate as with some other amplifiers. The black finish on the case matches all of my other modern components and will likely blend in just about anywhere while the orange dial surrounds give a little pop of color but aren't too reflective or garish. The case feels incredibly solid and well put together and its weight makes this feel like a much more expensive product. The tube sockets are seemingly installed perfectly vertically - again not always the case - and the tubes slid in quite easily. The VU meter is a very nice little piece of bling without too much flash. It's entertaining, but not distracting. The only knock I have on it is that you have to crank the volume to get it to move. The miniature binding posts on the back are exceptionally solid given their size. While I hadn't tested them with a bare wire, they accepted my locking bananas with no fuss and I didn't have any problems. While the looks of the included remote aren't anything to write home about, it has a good tactile feel and includes all of the functions you might need.So, on to the next test! I installed this integrated amp into my system while cutting out all of my other electronics by using the optical output of my TV which passes audio from my AppleTV 4k. I normally run a MiniDSP Flex with Dirac into a preamp and then to a 2ch Hypex-based power amplifier. I did not test this amp with my subwoofer enabled, though it does have an aux out that could be used to feed one without having to tee/split the signal. Left/right channels were fed directly into Sonus faber Lumina V's which I've been listening to with the Hypex, among other types of vintage transistor-based amps, for about six months.My listening here was split into two main thrusts - music and HT content. I'm not a subscriber to any of the fancy multi/many-channel formats, so again the T9 Pro is a perfect fit for me. Across all content the imaging was excellent, though not as laser-focused as the Hypex amp. The highs needed to be tamed slightly with tone control but were very crisp. Horns in particular sounded superb. I didn't really find any music that didn't sound good, but for me this amp really shined in HT. Vocals, which can sometimes be a problem in 2ch home theater, were present and forward. It's amazing that dramatic swells can fill the room from such a tiny amplifier. And when I add in that it's doing duty as a selector/preamp, EQ, and power amp all in that tiny box, well, it's hard to argue with.Do I think that the T9 Pro bests my full primary setup? No. But for the price and simplicity it comes shockingly close! I'm sure if I were to chain-in the MiniDSP for Dirac and advance filter/EQ/delay/room correction functions it would bump it up to a whole different level as it has with my other amps. This product clearly had thought put into its array of inputs and outputs and while it may not have everything for every system, it really is a perfect match for my needs. Given the performance, quality of life features, and feel+quality, I would not hesitate to recommend this amp to be the core to build out a 2ch system around! In short: if you're on the fence or considering it...GET IT NOW!

I have had this little amp for many months. It’s fantastic and a great value. For a while, I did feel as if I wanted it to get better volume without maxing , but I was able to remedy this. After looking everywhere to see if I can plug this into the A07 max and basically use it as a pre amp, i decided to try it myself. I also got the upgraded power supply for the A07. (Makes a huge difference). I also upgraded the tubes in the T9 pro with the $25 riverstone audio pair from amazon. IT IS WORTH IT.Essentially, my T9 pro is being used as a pre amp with tone control and DAC into the A07 with upgraded power supply. This opened up the sound stage, gives me the volume and adjustability I wanted, and looks cool with a small form factor. I also have the x2 pre amp for my turntable with upgraded tubes. All in all for a pre amp, upgraded tubes, upgraded power supply, t9 pro and A07 max, you have a full set up that you can have a turntable attached and television. It worked great with my a/v switcher too. At one point, i had my TV, a cassette deck, and my phono pre amp all hooked into this thing running through Kef q350 speakers. it is extremely fun messing with all of the items like a lego set.THE SOUND-TurntableGet an external pre amp. The sound is crisp, and clear. Beyond impressive for its price point. It is a little thin on the bottom mid range and upper mid range, but the dynamics are awesome and you can hear the instruments in the music. I test everything with “Rhiannon” from Fleetwood mac, it really sounded awesome. I do not find that it adds to much distortion or clipping even when volume is maxed.-TVThrough the optical table, it sounds great. I sometimes like just playing my playstation through a simple 2 channel set up in my small media room. It’s easy to switch from the remote and adjust the treb and bass as needed while sitting in the couch.-BLUETOOTHMy 1 knock. The bluetooth on this thing sucks. The connection is fine and if you just have background listening it’s whatever. But it is VERY thin sounding. Still a great feature to have. I think you would be better set getting a blue tooth adapter.OVERALLAwesome little amp with great sound and looks. Sounds even better when paired with A07 max and upgraded power supply.For the average listener, so worth it. I mainly listen to my music on a vintage pioneer amp, but I still put this on regularly.For someone starting off on a vinyl or hifi journey, especially with a tendency to hyper focus, save and get higher end equipment. You WILL keep adding little parts to this that will rack up to be the same as just getting a few mid range pieces.
