About the AD18
The SMSL AD18 is a compact full-digital/Class D desktop amplifier-DAC designed primarily for driving passive speakers in small desktop, TV, and PC setups. It includes an integrated headphone amplifier and a dedicated subwoofer output for simple 2.1 systems. Connectivity includes USB, coaxial, analog 3.5 mm, Bluetooth 4.2 with aptX, and two optical inputs. Outputs include speaker binding posts, a front-panel 3.5 mm headphone jack, and a 3.5 mm subwoofer output. A front-panel display and DSP-based bass, treble, and sound-mode controls make it an affordable all-in-one solution for compact stereo systems rather than a dedicated headphone amplifier.
