Pi 5 with sound

Hi, so I'm planning to build a cyberdeck with a Pi 5, and I'm planning to use laptop speakers from a broken laptop I have, and realised I would need an audio amp. I was wondering which of these would be a better pick: The one with a blue heatsink is a TPA3110 with 8-26V DC, 30W+30W 2.0 amp XH-A232. The red PCB one is a DollaTek 10W+10W 2 Channel 12V DC module. Since the Pi 5 doesn't have an audio jack anymore, I would need to use a USB adaptor to get the audio cable or use GPIO pins. I don't plan to have access to the rotating volume control so I feel like the space on it is gonna be wasted. I'm planning to power the build off a power bank. I know 30W is going to be better for sound but I'm also conscious of power spend. Not to mention that looking at power banks they seem to be capped below 30W so I'm not sure if getting 30W capability would be even worth it. Here's two power banks I've been looking at: Lower wattage, less outputs, less capability but name brand - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Anker-Portable-PowerCore-High-Speed-Charging/dp/B0BYP4Y1N8/ More wattage more capacity more outputs but haven't heard of the brand before - https://www.amazon.co.uk/VEGER-30000mAh-Charging-Portable-Compatible/dp/B0C4DWD4XY/ To be specific the laptop speakers I'm utilising are QT-7326AW-1-W and these are the links to the boards: Dollatek - https://www.amazon.co.uk/DollaTek-Electronic-Assembled-Amplifier-Portable/dp/B07DJ4NJXR/ TPA3110 - https://www.amazon.co.uk/Amplifier-TPA3110-XH%E2%80%91A232-Computers-Electronic/dp/B093ZK99B8
