Pyle 4 Channel Wireless Bluetooth Amplifier - 3000 Watts Peak Stereo Home Audio Receiver with FM Radio, USB, 2 Microphone with Echo, HDMI & 24-Bit Decode, Front Loading CD/DVD Player, LED, Rack Mount

I purchased this for my garage to sing karaoke, listen to iHeart radio, Pandora, YouTube. Easy to set up, sound is good, Blue tooth feature works great, easy to pair, however the range is very short (cannot even be on the other side of my three car garage without it cutting out). After hooking it up sound only comes from one side (right) I changed the speakers around and the left side worked just fine on the right, however then the swapped speakers still did not work on the other side. After calling Pyle customer service and troubleshooting, Amazon and trouble shooting, having a neighbor over to look at it I decided for the money I would exchange it for the same one in hopes that Pyle customer service was correct that this was an isolated incident and with another (new) receiver the problem would go away. I have a upcoming gathering and the (new) one may not be here in time. Very disappointed. (I had only had the new receiver for one day - two nights). I will let you know when I get the new one if it works on both sides. I am using 4ea Insignia 5yrs old bookshelf speakers that worked well with my old pioneer (non Bluetooth receiver). Update - changed to 5 stars. The new one works great!

Nothing compares to a Pyle. The husband JD said he picked used aged Pyle off the trash dump in 1988 tinkered with it got it working. Had plenty since then. Again Nothing compares the sound quality , the beautiful look.

Buyer beware. I rarely take time out of my day to write a review. I bought a PT696BT back in July 2020 for our new house. Receiver sat in box waiting for new house to be built (COVID delays). Finally moved in March 2021, hooked up this receiver, turned up the volume to about 35-39 (not even close to max volume). Something blew in receiver, horrible burning smell. Then could only turn up volume to about 30 ish, and receiver would pop over speakers and volume shut off. Contacted Pyle - even though I just hooked up receiver 2 weeks ago, because my purchase date was July 2020 - they wouldn't do anything. I could pay shipping to send unit for them to inspect. Then pay for shipping to return unit. Forget - just more lost money. Brand new unit sitting in the closet. Then I bought the PD3000BA with built in DVD. HORRIBLE! While it runs speakers and sounds pretty good, here's the problem: 1) if you are middle aged and wear reading glasses - the remote control is HORRIBLE. It's a dark blue background and black type - can't even read the darn thing. Have to get up and turn on lights to even see the remote buttons and then it's difficult. Terrible! 2) the built in DVD player is HORRIBLE. We have a couple movies at home, rented DVD at redbox - the system is playing the DVD in some foreign language. RIDICULOUS - I think French? Went to menu - setup, selected language: ENGLISH... and the darn thing still played the video is a foreign language. SERIOUSLY: the price point is really nice, but PYLE is a pile of junk. One of the worse products I've ever purchased. Please friends do yourself a favor: DO NOT BUY A PYLE PRODUCT. It's cheap for a reason. Doesn't work well and product support as usual with most big companies is awful. Sorry for the bad news. Just want people to know not to buy PYLE. Honestly, I would recommend to Amazon: don't even carry the product.

Seems to be pretty good, hopefully is lasts a long time.It's got a few annoying issues, like the remote has way too many buttons and is unreadable. The speakers pop when you turn off the unit, ok at standby. It had a weird speaker pop/crackle noise background sound, that seems to have gone away. The power is not "3000W" of course, but it is good power to run a pair of 10's and a pair of 6x9s with no issue.

Shipped fast, great radio with tons of options , would buy again all day !! Love the blue led lights on buttons. Aweosme !!

I have had this unit for 5 years and it has been lightly used. It does not support all the surround sound speakers I have but that said still has good sound. This was probably my oversight when I ordered. It stopped working a few months ago and I just got around today to troubleshooting. By education I am an Electronics Engineer and so dove right into trying to figure out what failed. The unit seems to be well designed and care given to quality. Cables were marshalled with tie wraps. Connectors and screws had glue to prevent loosening. Turns out the fuse blew at the 120VAC plug. I was surprised to find that the fuse was a 3A with no time delay. The fuse directly supplies a transformer that has multiple taps on the secondary to power the unit. A 3A fast blow fuse is insufficient to handle the inrush of a transformer so it was only a matter of time before it failed. New fuse Littelfuse on order with proper time / current characteristics... Purchasing at Pyle probably thought they were getting a deal on 3A fuses without having a clue what they were ordering technically.

My wife and I are in our 50's. I am good at tech, she is not. I wanted to replace our old cd player/receiver/amp with a new one with bluetooth so she could stream her music through our ceiling speakers. Like all receivers, buttons are tiny are controls are confusing and hard to read for non tech-savy 50 year olds who need reading glasses. And the remote is completely useless with identical tiny buttons and black text written on a dark blue background. That being said, once i added some clearer labels for my wife, this has worked very well for the money. It powers 4 (2 sets of) speakers to fill a 1000 sq foot room easily. The bluetooth connection is good for about 20-30 feet (make sure to screw in the provided antena). With the bluetooth left on, it immediately connects to my wifes iphone 11 as soon as the power is turned on. After three weeks, its connects to her phone easily (which means I dont have to troubleshoot connections for her like many of her other bluetooth speakers). Glad i got this for the price. So far so good.
