Is this a decent option to power a turntable with a couple of 8 ohm speakers, and it mentions a sub, could this power a pair of shakers?

I would say no... its has minimal power output. The best it can do is power a 4 small surround satellite speakers. Definitely no subs or shakers. I haven't tried a powered sub on the aux out but that might work.

Absolutely NOT! It is a 5W piece of junk! I got one to try and with a 10 A strong power supply I measured a max of 6.73W rms into 8 ohms at 1 kHz at clipping on left front channel, and 5.96W (same conditions) on the right channel. You will be very disapointed with the results. You would be better off finding a used receiver or amp and forgetting about Lepai. Only if you have extremely efficient speakers will they give out any worthwhile sound. The Lepai is not worth it even at half the price!

This is basically a 2-ch (posts are connected internally) I would recommend the Lepai LP-168HA 2.1 2 x 40-Watt Amplifier and 1x68W Sub Output.

Won't work with a 8 ohm coil. I use it with a 12" single 4 ohm via bridge and the amps couldn't handle it. I think you should get a different amps or get 2 ohms speakers.

Don't expect the amp to push the two subs to full potential... You're better off with a 4000w amp bridged and just power down to get good quality sound and some good thumpin power

I had it hooked up to a pa speaker with 2 15s and 4 tweeters raited at 250watts and it sounded great and got pretty loud. For your sub I do believe it would work. I did, however, end up sending it back. There were issues with the phono input where the signal wouldn't come through and the mic input dial seemed to have difficulty when increasing the volume. It did not increase gradually but rather reached a point where it seemed to just jump to 100%. Also, on the package I received it said defective, which maybe should have been a warning. So if you do get one check out all of the functions before the return date is up.

That amp would be perfectly fine for two of these subs wired at 2 ohms if yiu wire to 1ohm you may blow them though

This should work wel for your system. The total power of my amp stated on the test sheet was 715amps. It has plenty of power. Turn off the low pass switches to the speakers and get your base from the Sub woofer! I think you will be happy!

yes it should work very well as long as the turntable has a built in preamp. just hook it up to the auxiliary of the amplifier.

i,m not sure but i think you. would need some type of amplficatio between the speakers and the turntable.

Yes, you should be able to power your 8 ohms speakers. Just don't daisy-chain another set of speakers.

If they're 8 ohm speakers, this may be a bit under-powered. They have a 3000 model that would be better suited for only a small amount more.

HI Garcia. I bought this pair of bass shakers and i did not like because they dont bass as well. I Plug this inmy amplifier and does not work good. That Dayton Audio makes a lot of noise but does not work great. Regards , MURILO from Brazil.

I honestly don't know. I merely connected my 70's turntable to this and run it into a small mixer before running it back to my 70's era Bose amp. No sub output on those old things. Sorry I couldn't help. Good luck!

This will work fine for powering those speakers. Be sure you ground it VERY well or it will whine. The one I bought was the hardest amp I have ever had to get noise out of.

The quick answer is "yes". How ever, I purchased this amp to allow me to "bi-amp" a set of Polk tower speakers (add some "punch" to my system). Connecting the amp to my Yamaha RX-A3020 and to the Polk towers, produced a low frequency hum. Assuming your sub would also be subject to this. I found out, this amp is made for commercial loudspeaker (clubs/disc jocks) where a low level hum is completely unnoticed. In a home theater/livingroom application, I don't think this is tolerable. It will work, if you don't mind the humm. I will sell you mine, cheap :-) ...used all of a couple of hours.

Because its a mono amp, I believe only one speaker. Which is why it's suitable for a sub. I'm going to have to say no.

I believe so. The manual instructs using 8 ohm or 16 ohm speakers and the power handing spec in the manual is 4 Ohm load. I have been chaining two 8 Ohms each on L and R monitor outs and would do the same on the mains in a live setting. Clear as a bell at rehearsals and still lots of headroom available.

That's a good match, IMO. An 8 ohm load will only make ~7-8 watts on this amp. You may start to see some distortion after half volume but even at that point, it's plenty loud. Just keep in mind, it's not a 100 watt amp..I had that amp connected to a pair of large 100 watt 8 ohm home stereo speakers and it did a great job! If you have a way to adjust the tone on the input audio, it'll rock! Very clean and accurate..
