Pyle 3000 Watt Premium Home Audio Power Amplifier - Portable 4 Channel Surround Sound Stereo Receiver w/Speaker Selector & Remote-For AmplifiedTV,Subwoofer Speakers, Theater & PA System-PT3300 Black

The power is nice I have two BSR 15" house speakers and the sound it puts out is nice , nice bass , sound is clear and the speakers punch. The only problems are theirs no volume indicator on how high it is till the sound starts playing and another problem you might have like I did was really bad humming and buzzing from the speaker once you hook up your preamp or tuner/ bluetooth ect. It hummed like crazy cause...... Ground loop I had to take off the ground prong on my tuner or you can buy the adapter but same thing. Fixed the horrible buzz and sounds great. So if you get it and its buzzing it's not the amp it's a your setup most common is the 3rd prong ground, the amp is not garbage like people say they just don't know what they're doing this isn't always the problem but the most common on speaker buzzing.

I've had one of these for about half year now and it still functional. It puts out pretty good watts to make my house shake. Using this and some 15s i actually hit the resonance frequency of my house and my whole wall waved at me before my eyes, I thought the Tv was going to pop off. I like the fact that i can have a guitar and my stereo plugged into this and play them at the same time.My only complaint would be that there needs to be a sound bar. When i turn the volume directly on the system it takes quite a bit of turns to really increase the volume (compared to using the remote). And there is no way to read how much you have increased the sound level except for looking at the equalizer on the front and seeing how far it bounces over.

This is the information I sent on to Pyle and never got a reply. I ended up purchasing two different Pyle (CRAP) products and returning both units for excessive digital noise and basic sound quality. I did leave out my consulting offer to correct obvious design and mechanical engineering problems.Original Letter To Pyle:Pyle P2002ABTI 2000 Watts Hybrid ReceiverPyle Home PT3300 3000-Watt Power AmplifierFirst.....I might point out these amplifiers would never in anyone's lifetime get close to 3000 Watts output or even 2000 Watts of output power. You do know that the power from a wall receptacle is a little over 1500 Watts, so 3000 Watts doesn't compute. The power cord shipped with this unit is 18 Gauge wire or 770 Watts and still not 3000 Watts. With the shipped power cord I would expect a big fire if this amp ever go to 3000 watts. These amps won't even make the fine print ratings of over 350 Watts / channel into 4 ohms. Really "PEAK" power what good is that.I purchased these units for my small home machine shop. They are connected to a computer to listen to streaming music. Neither unit had that good a sound quality, but would have been OK for a shop setting.Although inexpensive, they are junk. In the past week I have purchased these two re-branded Chinese products. Unless you are willing to stipulate these products are an PYLE American company design. Both of these units have a "PYLE" of problems, so I will just go over the top few.The first product has bright Blue lighting that illuminates the whole room. Not a problem in a workshop setting. This unit also has Blue-Tooth that when connected, produces digital beeps and squeaks louder than the music. Without a Blue-Tooth connection it produces a loud chime every 2 to 3 minutes. The cooling fan is distracting. I can't believe these is insufficient shielding in the power supply to prevent digital noise generated by the Blue-Tooth transmitter from getting into the audio front end. Why is there no switch on the back to turn that s*** (Blue-Tooth) off.I ordered the second unit to replacement the first whistling devil amp I returned. This amp has loud 60 cycle hum in the speakers regardless of the volume setting. I keep checking the lathe because I thought I had not turned off the DC drive motor power supply that produces a hum at the same level. In addition this unit defaults to "TAPE" when the main power is cycled. What is with that. Does the design team suspect that almost everyone in America has a Reel to Reel tape drive, or maybe a Eight Track recorder.Don't purchase low priced Pyle products. Spend you money on used stereo gear at the Goodwill store. It's a better bargain and probably will run longer than Pyle of Poop products.

First off, anyone buying Pyle amps needs to know that they grossly overrate the wattage. And I mean GROSSLY. This amp is sold as a 3000 watt unit; in reality it's 150 watts per channel at 8 ohms. OK, I knew that going in, so no surprise here. I'm only posting this so other buyers will have realistic expectations. This is cheap equipment, not high-end stuff. But, sometimes there's a place for that.Now...the amp actually sounds pretty good. The power that it does have is pretty clean. I'm satisfied on that front.But the unit does have some quirks. The volume control is digital and it raises the volume in steps instead of gradually. It's very touchy and sometimes the jumps are pretty significant. I found myself wanting sound levels in-between two of the settings. This is pretty annoying, and I will probably end up just using the unit as an amp only by feeding it with a small mixer board I have. The remote has the same issue.When you turn the unit on it always starts in the TAPE input instead of remembering which input you were using. I started out using the AUX input, but I changed to the TAPE input so I wouldn't have to select my input every time I turned it on. Not the end of the world, but annoying.No way I'd use this amp in my living room. But it seems to do fine in my application, a workshop where I play it loud. I drive a couple of large bookshelf speakers with a powered sub and it rocks pretty well for this.Time will tell as to the reliability, Pyle's reputation there is not the best. I will try and remember to report back down the road aways.In summery....not bad, probably worth the price. Just know what you are buying so you'll understand what this is and isn't. I would have given it 4 stars if not for the ridiculous volume control. Pyle really should fix that, it would be a fairly nice amp if the volume control was more precise.---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Update - After a few months, the amp is still working, but I have retired it to back-up duty in lieu of a Bheringer amp I bought. It's not that this amp sounds bad; it's actually pretty decent. But the Bheringer was a better fit for my particular application.I still say that if not for the horrid volume control, the amp would rate 4 stars. It sounds good and it produces decent power (not anywhere near it's rating, but plenty to drive most home speakers as hard as they can handle); but the volume control with the wide steps is just awful. Still...if you need a cheap and fairly powerful amp to drive some speakers loud, this is a good deal.Good listening!
