SMSL SA-50 T-amp + Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 - good combination?

[seve]

Hi, I'm interested in this combination. I originally was going to go with a Marantz PM5004 instead, however I became intrigued with these Class D / T amps after stumbling upon a few threads and doing a bit of research. I own a Topping D3 DAC / headphone amp combo which I have had for around a year now and love, so I'm familiar with these type of Chinese brands.

My question is, will the SMSL SA-50 be a good match with the Wharfedale Diamond 9.1? I mainly listen to rock, indie and hip-hop, but I also listen to some drum & bass / dubstep - so all types of genres. I'm not bass shy so I like deep bass, but not overpowered.

Wharfedale Diamond 9.1 speaker specs: 6 ohms 100W
SMSL SA-50 amp specs specs: 50W @ 4ohm / 40W @ 8ohm

TPA3116 on ebay is 2.1 amp - so supports a sub, and is more powerful, and have great reviews for less money !

Hi, thanks for the reply. The TPA3116 looks very interesting, I'm assuming it will perform and sound better than the TDA7492? (Sorry, I'm a noob) I'm looking for something preassembled and this is all I could find on eBay. Is YJHiFi any good? Seems to be yuan-jing's preassembled brand.

Yes that's the ebay listing we are talking about.

Another one you might be interested in is the Proton AI-3000 CD-Receiver for $79.95

Proton is an upscale NAD, and we all know good things about NAD...

Hopefully this helps ~
