So in the pursuit of better audio on PC, I've got one of these Amptastic Mini-1 amplifiers and a pair of Q Acoustics 2010i bookshelf speakers. The end result was simply spectacular! Here's an unboxing video that I made, giving my initial reactions to the unit. I hope you like it :)

Glad your setup turned out so good! It truly is amazing how such a simple setup cab sound so good. Makes you wonder why those dinky surround computer speakers exist at all.

Thanks to your help of course. Seriously, if you haven't said anything before, I would have ended up with dinky "made for PC" speakers and hugely regretted it. But the Amptastic Mini-1 is such a gem to use. And it's British made, along with the equally British Q Acoustics 2010i speakers. The video even got shared by Amptastic themselves on FB and Twitter. Definitely made my week off :)
