It isn’t easy to find a bridgeable power amplifier with balanced connections and decent power output under $2,000 let alone under the $500 mark. The Tangent PowerAmpster II would be a great option in all sorts of applications from desktop use to adding more channels to your home theater receiver or simply for straight Stereo playback. Just add a streamer with preamp function and you have a complete system ready to go.

These are nice, compact units that run nice and cool and they have ample power to run most speakers with ease. If you bridge these amplifiers to Mono you will effectively double the power to 200 Watts which is more than enough for most speakers.

Great sound for more than reasonable money, we have found the Tangent units to be unbeatable in terms of price versus performance.
