So many features from such a compact device
The Tibo SIA50 packs a lot into the SIA50. As well as a being a powerful, stereo amplifier, the SIA50 is fitted with a range of network features and can even be used as part of a Tibo multi-room system – just add your choice of passive speakers.
Powerful amp
At the heart of this mini amp is a surprisingly punchy amplifier. Delivering 50 watts per channel (at 4 ohms), the SIA50 happily powers a wide range of speakers, to room-filling levels. The highly efficient Class D, digital amplifier produces high power while remaining cool-running and consuming less power. For even more punch, simply add your choice of active subwoofer via the dedicated sub output.
Choice of streaming
With both Bluetooth and wi-fi connectivity, you can stream your music to the SIA50 the way that suits you. For a quick and universal connection, use the Bluetooth pairing and start streaming in seconds. Stream directly from your favourite music services, such as Spotify, Apple Music and Deezer, or access your stored music library and listen out loud.
Tibo multi-room compatible
The SIA50 is also compatible with Tibo’s multi-room, multi-play system. Add other compatible Tibo products, such as Vogue, Sphere and Choros Tap models and you can soon build up a comprehensive multi-room system around your home – all under the control of a smartphone app.
Control it all with the Tibo app
Tibo's free app doesn't just control the streamer's basic functions it also lets you stream separate audio to different (compatible) Tibo devices. This means that Spotify might be streaming to the system in your bedroom while Internet Radio is streaming to the kitchen speaker.
Wire up your other music sources, or even your TV
As well as Bluetooth and wi-fi the SIA50 features RCA phono and optical digital inputs. Use the RCA phono input for a CD player or turntable with phono pre-amp built-in. The optical digital input is perfect for a TV, games console or anything else with a digital optical audio output.
Expand your music system and enjoy sound all around your home, with the Tibo SIA50.

Great Sound. Compact size!
I was looking for a small streaming amp to drive some speakers in my dining room. I mostly use Spotify whilst entertaining, so a dedicated amp seemed like the best best. Also, I wanted to keep the Cambridge Audio SX-50s I had there! I looked at what was available within my modest budget and decided on the Tibo. I am delighted with the results. With the Tibo app, set-up was very simple to connect to my wifi network, I can stream using Spotify Connect and also have 5 preset internet radio channels, using the preset buttons on either the amp or the remote control. The app has several built-in streaming and radio services such as Tidal and Tune-in depending on which one you use The amp will take other sources such as turntable via RCA sockets or optical input but I haven't tried those. The sound is very good and incredibly powerful for a small amp. One point to be aware of is that there is a slight lag of about 60 seconds from switching on, to the amp connecting to the wifi network. You then have to select your source-the amp doesn't default to the last source used. Not a problem, but at first I was tempted to keep pressing buttons, thinking something was wrong. The other cute feature is that you can change the colour of the volume ring when it is in use, a choice of off, red, green or blue. Overall, I am very pleased and would heartily recommend the unit.

Stopped working after 1 week
I bought this a few weeks ago and it has stopped working, no sound reaching the speakers at all. Brand new speaker wires, optical cable fitted yet still no sound from amp. Not impressed!

Perfect size, great modes
I bought this to replace a faulty Tangent Ampster which I really liked. I haven't been disappointed by the sound or the connection options. It has a web interface and an app which I haven't really got into yet but could be really useful.

Great sound / poor playlist management
Brought this to stream Tidal and internet radio stations,
Set- up was abit fiddly as my router had both 2.5hz and 5hz- to set it up your phone and the tibo have to be on the same WiFi frequency. But managed to sort it
Sound is really good, however , with Tidal I have found the controls are annoying. Using the app you have to play a playlist in order and can’t just go to a track you want by scrolling. This pressing ‘next track’ until it finally gets to the one you want
Using the remote, you have to manually skip tracks, but also the playlist order is messed up and not the order as it is in tidal
This may just be a problem with tidal connectivity

Tiny little powerhouse
I bought this lovely little amp to replace my ageing Arcam Alpha and because I needed something with an optical out. The sound is truly exquisite and a noticeable upgrade from the Arcam. I was impressed with the power output, double that of the other amps in the same price bracket. What really impressed me though is the Tibo phone app though. All the features can be controlled by the phone and you can stream any radio station on the planet! Great variety. The compact case allows it to discreetly fit in wherever you want. 10/10
