The unit can power up to 2 x 15W speakers at 4 or 8 Ohms and is supplied with a 1 x 4 way phoenix connector. The compact design makes the unit ideal for fitting into small spaces like ceiling voids and is powered by a 15V 2A PSU (Supplied). The unit is ideally suited to ceiling speakers but can work equally well with wall or floor mounting units. A key feature in Bluetooth 5.0 is that Bluetooth 5.0 enabled devices such as smartphones (check the capability of your device) can transmit audio to two amplifiers within a 10m range at the same time. No password is required which means it is ideal for making connection to Smart home devices.

FAQs
Can I connect passive 16 Ohm speakers?
No, this amplifier is designed for low-impedance speakers, specifically 4 or 8 Ohms. Connecting 16 Ohm speakers may result in no sound or reduced performance.
Does it require a separate power amplifier?
No, this unit has a built-in power amplifier, so you only need to connect your passive speakers directly to it.
What is the maximum Bluetooth range?
With Bluetooth 5.0, the effective range is typically up to 10 meters, though this can be affected by environmental factors.
Can I control the volume directly on the amplifier?
There are no physical controls on the amplifier itself. Volume and playback controls are managed through your connected Bluetooth device.
What does 'dual amplifier streaming' mean?
It means that a Bluetooth 5.0 enabled device can simultaneously transmit audio to two separate EAUDIO Bluetooth 5.0 Stereo Amplifiers within a 10-meter range.
How do I ensure my smartphone is Bluetooth 5.0 compatible?
You can usually find this information in your smartphone's technical specifications or settings menu, often under 'About Phone' or 'Bluetooth Version'.
Can this amplifier power bookshelf speakers?
Yes, as long as the bookshelf speakers are passive and have a low impedance rating of 4 or 8 Ohms, this amplifier can power them.
Troubleshooting
No sound from speakers
Ensure the amplifier is powered on and the power adapter is securely connected. Verify speaker wires are correctly attached to the phoenix connector and the speakers are functioning. Check that your Bluetooth device is connected and playing audio, and that the volume is turned up.
Bluetooth device won't connect
Make sure the amplifier is discoverable (often indicated by a blinking LED). Reset the amplifier by disconnecting and reconnecting the power. Ensure your Bluetooth device is within range (typically 10 meters) and try forgetting the EAUDIO amplifier on your device and re-pairing.
Audio is distorted or cutting out
Check the speaker connections and ensure they are secure. If using Bluetooth 5.0 dual streaming, ensure both devices are within the 10m range of their respective amplifiers. Reduce the distance between your Bluetooth source and the amplifier. Minimize interference from other wireless devices.
Amplifier not powering on
Confirm the 15V 2A power adapter is correctly plugged into both the amplifier and a working wall outlet. Try a different wall outlet to rule out power source issues. If the issue persists, the power adapter or amplifier may be faulty.
