Pyle Compact 60 Watt Power Amplifier - Office, Home, Public Address System w/ RCA, 2 Microphone IN, 25/70 Volt Outputs, LED, Input Selector, Mic Talkover, Telephony, Music On Hold - PCM30A

This is my initial review of the 60 watt amp. It is working perfectly as of now. Time is the biggest issue with these machines. As of now, I am using this in a fast food restaurant as a pa system for the drive thru system and the microphone system. I am using 70v transformer speakers with the system. It sounds very good on the speakers. Will let you know if anything goes wrong in the future. For that price, I had to at least give it a shot. So far excellent.

This amp is currently powering 7 Bogen 25/70 V horns in a 20k+ sq ft store with no problems. It has plenty of volume and no noticeable noise. It is used for music and paging. I had always purchased Bogen amps to do paging but I was tired of paying out over $700 for the amp and the interfaces. I needed a paging system for a VOIP phone system. For my solution i used the headset output of a Grandstream phone into the Telephone input on the back. The music is supplied into the audio jacks on the back from a PC. The music returns about 2 seconds after you are done speaking and comes up gradually.

Good Value amp. Build quality is good. The volume for me is too touchy. It is either really quiet on say level 1 and then goes to super loud at level1.0001. It also gets a little scratchy in the upper volume range also. This is the 2nd one of these I have purchased. The first one lasted for three years until it got water damaged. We use it for lobby and elevator music in a commercial building and it does fine for that.

GREAT VALUE

The Pyle products are inexpensive and have value but perhaps not made that well Amplifier went bad after 5 months which is still under their warranty The service/ repair dept. is horrible. We informed Pyle of the problem 8 weeks ago, it took 3 weeks to get an RMA number and sent it in for repair right away. 8 weeks later still no amp Pay a little more and stay away from Pyle

Bought the 1st one via Amazon "used-like new" section. Arrived and wouldn't power on. Checked fuse and 120/220V selector and it's just dead. Now that's a possible shipping caused issue or an Amazon testing of returned items issue or the reason the 1st buyer returned?? Amazon did me right and got another out quickly. 2nd unit powered on but I set the level at "2" and it was too loud. Barely turning down like 1 degree was the range between normal volume and too loud. Wouldn't recommend. We usually buy TOA.

You can tell that a lot of thought went into the design of this product. It will be very versatile, and a good fit for many applications. I also seems to be well built. You should be happy with this product if you buy it.

This amp replaced an old Bogen that died. This unit also came with a FM tuner also. We ended up replacing our shop radio with this and connected our telephone paging to it also.
