”As the basis of a budget music system, it’s impressive and has to be regarded as a bit of a star.”- ‘Hi-Fi Choice’ ‘Recommended – 5 Star review’

Punchy performer

Despite its compact size, the Tangent Ampster BT II is ‘full fat’ when it comes to power output. With its 2 x 25 watt power output, this baby amp has ample power to deliver room-filling sound in small and medium-sized spaces. For extra bass, simply hook up your choice of active subwoofer to the dedicated sub output.

Wireless Bluetooth connection
Connect to your smartphone or tablet and listen out loud, without the hassle of cables. The quality Bluetooth 4.0 connection ensures a high quality, low loss connection for a smooth and lifelike sound.

Wire up your TV and music sources, too
Featuring an optical digital input and two line level inputs, this little amp has the capacity for connecting a full system. You can use the optical digital or AUX inputs for your TV, leaving the other sockets available for the matching Tangent Tuner and CD player – or any other sources components.

Wake on Bluetooth and AUX
Helping save you energy, the Ampster BT II switches into standby when no Bluetooth signal is detected. Once a music signal is detected, it wakes automatically – as it does with an AUX input, too. This is ideal when used with a network device, such as Chromecast Audio, Apple AirPort Express or similar product, as Ampster BT II turns on as soon as you start playing music through your network.

Compact size
Narrower than most Hi-Fi separates, the compact Tangent Ampster BT II fits tighter spaces. The matching tuner and CD player make up a neat system that has the convenience of a mini system with the sound quality of separates.

System remote control and outboard IR sensor
The supplied remote control doesn’t just operate the amp, it also controls a full tangent system, including CD player and tuner – making the full Tangent system every bit as convenient as an all-in-one system. Also included is an outboard IR (InfraRed) sensor. This lets you place the amp out of sight while still maintaining full remote control – perfect if your system’s in a cabinet.

Give your listening experience a boost, with the Tangent Ampster BT II.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Packs a punch for its size. I liked it so much I bought another one for my front room!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for my needs I'm currently building a tiny house and have designed an in wall speaker system to optimise space saving. Naturally I was keen to also minimise the space taken up by an amp/receiver. The tangent is perfect in this regards. It has enough power to drive a pair of Polk rc65's. I like it's slick minimal appearance and the fact it has a sub port. It seems a very affordable way to build a small speaker set up around. I also received great in store advice at the Leicester branch prior to purchasing

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Simple and effective! Bought recently for an entry level hifi set up. Very simple to set up and with Bluetooth as well makes for a way to play vinyl and listen to Spotify.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Superb and great price Bought this yesterday- arrived this am. Very easy to set up and pairs brilliantly with the Tangent CD player I already have. Crisp clear sound with plenty of bass through Dali speakers and sub woofer. Bluetooth works well and very easy to set up. All in all a great piece of kit at a good price

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Punching above its weight.. My son bought this amp as his entry into the world of hi-fi. It’s perfectly formed, small, sleek and no nonsense that packs a real punch. Paired with JBL control ones and an entry level turntable this is perfect for both his room at home and at uni. H

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stunning value, great bit of kit I wanted a sound system for my new oak frame garage and after some research came up with this. Rang my local store Friday and they delivered Saturday. I'm really amazed with this little thing. Bought as a package deal with JBL speakers which are a great match. Linking this to Amazon Music through an Echo (Alexa) I can now play what I want on voice command. Highly recommended

Rated 5 out of 5 by from excellent value compact, good sound I bought this to reduce space taken up by audio equipment. Easy to use control via remote for most functions and has Bluetooth. Great compact amp unit, sounds better with the edition of a subwoofer.
