Game Boy Color CleanAmp Pro - RetroSix

This makes the sound really loud, but also crisp and clear even with the original speaker. I installed a new 680UF cap and that probably helped along with the CleanPower regulator. Learning from my DMG that the old caps and regulator can't handle new mods I went ahead and changed these out. No cut-outs, no boot loops, no screen dimming. Super easy install and even works underneath the RetroGlow board.

Don’t know what happened. Went to solder first point and the pad came off before I could even finish applying solder. Just a bad experience. Maybe just a fluke, I don’t know.

Worked as described, installed easy.

Game Boy Color CleanAmp Pro - RetroSix

This is a great little amp for the Gameboy color! I put new capacitors and a new funnyplaying speaker into my gameboy along with this amplifier from retro6, what a difference! Its not scratchy sounding at all which was a concern of mine when turning the volume up and down which is fantastic. I think between the caps, the new speaker and a blast of crc contact cleaner into the volume wheel the only thing left to do for the console/audio circuit is to replace the voltage regulator. I noticed the console will power down if the volume is turned up too high. I think the stock regulator is struggling to provide enough current for the modifications I have installed. I went ahead and ordered one from you guys already and look forward to getting that installed! Bottom line, its leagues ahead of the stock amp, and depending on your modifications you may need a new power regulator to keep it up. Thanks handheld legend!

Volume’s kinda scratchy as you’re turning it up to max, but that’s kinda the norm with these cheaply made audio amps, they all do that. But it works, and it gets LOUD.
