Pyle 300W Bluetooth Karaoke Amplifier - 2-Channel PA System with FM Radio - USB/SD - AUX - 2 Mic Inputs - Siren Alarm - 12V Power Option - Remote Control for Home - Car - Bus Tours - PFA600BU

Firstly, if you are inside, DO NOT PRESS THE SIREN BUTTON HOLY GOOD GOD. I obviously wanted to test it out to make sure it worked but it plays it at ABSOLUTE MAX VOLUME no matter what. So in conclusion, the siren works very well lol.I am not using this for PA stuff, I'm using it as a desktop amplifier for my "computer speakers" (near field monitors) and I needed something that was significantly smaller than a home theater receiver so I decided to try it out. At the time of this review I am not sure how to use the integrated EQ, so I'v'e adjusted it with my computer EQ. Initially, it sounded very flat. For audiophiles, great. For the rest of us, It's gonna need a bit of tweaking. After playing with it for a few min to get it where I wanted, it works amazingly. The 300 watts per channel ensures that this thing can handle any of my speakers and push them hard. I had it at maybe 50% volume total between the volume knob and my computer, and it was very impressive to say the least. Extremely loud while also clear. It's sitting idle while I'm writing this and I have to say, the nicest thing compared to my other (SONY) receiver is how cool it stays. Most home theater receivers are space heaters and even while sitting idle, stay toasty. For a bedroom, which is where I have this, after an hour or two the room can get to be uncomfortably warm because of that. Even after driving this thing as hard as I did, I see no heating issues in the near future.Cons: I wish it was 2.1 channel to be honest, but I'm sure there's a way to wire a sub into the series. Regardless you are paying bottom dollar for a nice simple receiver that does it's job. Bluetooth functionality works but I'm not a fan of how the volume scales with my computer so I'll stick to a 3.5mm aux cable.TLDR:If you want a small bedroom/desktop audio receiver, go for it you will get your money's worth (I paid $47).Other thoughts: It comes with an antenna and supports FM tuning, but I have not tried it yet.

Purchased for maintenance shop stereo, only needed basic functions. Works perfectly for driving 2 speakers on FM and Bluetooth audio from phones. Siren function is useless in my opinion. I wish the FM tuner was easier to operate, there's no tuning buttons, you have to use the seek and auto-program to find the frequency then find the correct channel from the list. But really for the money this thing is awesome and suits my purpose excellently.Something I noticed that wasn't explained elsewhere: The aux jack is always connected to the speaker output regardless if the tuner is in AUX mode, Bluetooth mode, or FM stereo mode. If you're listening to FM radio and supply the aux input with audio (like being plugged into a PC) the aux will play over the speakers in addition to the FM radio.Edit: If anyone knows a procedure for programming specific FM stations to a specific pre-set, please comment on this review. Pyle's answers in their FAQ section do not answer this question. I'm sure that there is a way to assign a station to a preset without having to use the auto-scan feature and getting 30 channels (half of which are pure static). My city doesn't have 30 stations. Of the 10 we have, I listen to maybe 3. I want to program just to 3 to presets 1, 2, and 3. I have contacted Pyle directly with this question and look forward to a reply.

I bought this for use in my Garage/Gym. I hooked some 20 year old Bose Model 141 Stereo Bookshelf Speakers to a non-powered Bose Acoustimass 3 Series IV Subwoofer that I dug out of storage to it and they sound really clean inside of the approx.. 3,366 ft³ space (standard 2-car Garage). Cranking the volume over 20 on some FM stations and Music apps will cause distortion on my particular setup. This thing packs a punch and I can only imagine what it would sound like with a better speaker setup.No assembly required aside from attaching the AM/FM and Bluetooth Antennas.I have only used the Radio Tuner and Bluetooth Streaming functions so I cannot comment on anything else. The FM Tuner sounds great. The supplied Antenna is adequate but the Channel Selector seems to get stuck or backtrack when trying to change Stations., frustrating but not awful. The Bluetooth sounds even better and after the first time pairing it connects to the last device used in a second after powering on or after switching to Bluetooth mode and surprisingly I have gone over 50 feet away with 2 walls in between without losing Bluetooth signal. It disconnects and reconnects when you take a call. The Remote is fairly user friendly, seems well built but it has to have a direct line of site to work. Mine is sitting on a shelf/rack like 6 ft. off the ground so we have to raise our arms up high to use the remote from a distance.I do think it needs a Subwoofer Output and an Adjustable Equalizer and not just a handful of presets as well as a few other things. Also if you leave it in Sleep Mode there is still loud air noise coming from the Speakers and if you turn it off on the unit itself it does not remember the Mode you were in and defaults to Auxiliary. In Sleep Mode turning it on with the Remote it remembers the previous Mode.Even so I'd probably buy it again just because of the price point.

I just bought a house that had some speakers attached to the wall on the deck outside. Figured I could make them work for $50 bucks. Connected the wires, set the mode to bluetooth and away we went. Very easy. This has plenty of power without disturbing the neighbors. I have bigger stuff if I want to do that. The radio works fine although I don't really use it. The siren is kind of weird I hope my toddler doesn't find it. I mainly use it as a bluetooth amplifier but I'm definitely going to do karaoke with the mic inputs when the time comes. I didn't buy it for that but I figured bonus feature. The card readers and aux in are probably never going to be used but they don't get in the way so it's not a problem. All in all its a nice size and is working as I expected.
