Texas at Heart
Inside the Kinter K3118 amplifier is a USA Designed Texas Instruments (TI) TPA3118 Class D audio amplifier IC that provides 2 X 15 watts RMS of highly efficient, detailed audio that's perfect for desktop, workbench, garage, arcade, auto, cycle or DIY projects.
A Versatile Performer
Separate Bass and Treble controls are standard on the K3118 amplifier as are gold-plated RCA left and right inputs along with a 3.5mm jack for plugging in smart phones or other equipment as the audio source. A “Direct” button bypasses the Bass and Treble circuit for listening to unaltered sound. The volume control is surrounded by a blue light indicating the amplifier is on. Connect your 4-8 Ohm speakers using the 14-16 gauge spring-loaded terminals found on the rear of the amp. The small aluminum enclosure keeps the K3118 running cool and has tabs that allow the amplifier to be mounted if required.
Anywhere and Everywhere
The K3118’s TI based Class-D design makes it an extremely efficient amplifier, and with upwards of 90% power efficiency the K3118 will sound larger than expected while generating less heat, and if operated by a battery will last longer, making it perfect for portability. Capable of operating between 4.5 – 24 Volts DC makes the K3118 ideal for most any application. Best of all, a 12 Volt DC 3 Amp power supply is included.
Please Note: The included power supply is capable of driving this amp at 2 x 15 watts per channel. To realize the full potential of this amp (>20 watts per channel), we recommend a power supply 15 to 19.5 VDC, 3A (minimum) that is capable of producing up to 60 watts of total output.
