PD3000BA

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!

This Amp is awesome! One big issue I have had for years with Black components is, I struggle to see the writing without a flash light. Pyle has really resolved this with the hi Vis Indigo Blue back light on the controls. Second thing I really like is the vast number of inputs that you have. BT was super easy to pair. Really great Amp!

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.

I love the amplifier. Everything i expected and more. The only down side is the remote. Im sorry but it had been terrible since day one. Have to press every button multiple times to get to work. If you cant turn it off with the remote you have to reset all the presets. Sound is incredible. BT/DVD everything works flawlessly except remote

A difficult find, but perfect for my needs and usage. This is a four-speaker system, but it works fine with just two. This is not a 5.1 system, but it has a subwoofer output, so you could have a 4-speaker system (left/right) with a subwoofer. It would have been nice if the CD/DVD had been Blu-ray, but it is not. Also note, there isn't a "line-out," although the sub-out could "be used" in a manner; I found it not really viable. So if you have multiple inputs, I would recommend using a second unit to feed all the inputs, then feeding a single output from that unit into this unit as input. Recommended.

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.

Box was damaged when I received it so I was scared I took a bunch of pictures of it but I hooked it up easy install product works great and very affordable for what it does

Excellent head unit for any speaker system works flawlessly sounds awesome.
