Pyle Wireless BT Receiver Wall Mount - 100W In-Wall Audio Control Receiver w/ Built-in Amplifier, USB/Microphone/Aux (3.5mm) Inputs, Speaker Terminal Block, Connect 2 Speakers, White - PWA15BT

I purchased one of these to use in one of the Bathroom's in my house, so someone who was taking a shower could listen to their music list while showering or doing their makeup. The In-wall amplifier was super easy to install. I put in an extra deep electrical box, mounted the transformer in the rear of the box, added a switch to work a second pair of speakers, (Which I will probably add to the Kitchen, later), and was able to fit everything in the wall, with nothing interfering down the front of the wall or with the receptacle. I was so surprised at the amplifier, that I purchased a second one to install in one of my rooms where I have a tanning bed. The Amplifier is very strong. In the Bathroom I am only able to run it at 1/2 volume. It powers a Pyle 200 Watt dual channel waterproof speaker and the sound quality is much better than I expected. The "Bluetooth" connects every single time. I have not had a single glitch. When you power the unit on, there is a voice that says "power on" and then "your device is connected". It is a female voice that was a little bit annoying at first, but I have to tell you that I am so impressed with how well the amplifier works that I have gotten used to her. Heheheheh. The Unit works very well. It was very reasonable. I got my first one on sale, paid about $40 bucks for the second one. I bought the transformer off Amazon. Just made sure to match the power output. It cost $12 and I felt was worth it not to have a cord hanging down the front of the wall, and I found a Pyle 200 Watt Dual Channel, waterproof speaker on Amazon, $23. I paid about $5 for the extra deep add-on electrical box, so about $80 total for the entire project

The setup of the system is a bit wonky. it is not capable of handling 110 VAC power on it's own, so you have to buy a hardwired transformer which Amazon's AI system recommend one that works and is fairly cheap. The setup instructions are wrong as the system will go into Bluetooth setup mode on its own and it shows as "BT" not "PYLEUSA" as the manual says it would. The saving grace was Pyle's customer service. Not only were they responsive with a solution to my setup problem that worked, when I didn't respond to them within 2 days they reached out again to make sure my issue was fixed. You don't see customer service like that very often, but when you do it deserves to be praised. I plan on buying a few more of these units. Once you set it up the sound quality is pretty good and for such a tiny system it actually sounds pretty decent.

Pros: * Very strong, clear signal easily powers 6.5" 250W speakers, * very convenient form factor, * versatile inputs, * easy BT pairing Cons: * Unreliable quality (one of two units bad), * USB charger generates noise on 3.5mm stereo input when in use, * BT output is much louder than 3.5mm output and there is no documented way to adjust gain on output * Not all wires are labeled or documented. * Bare bones user manual I have to give this 4 stars instead of 5 because one of the two I bought was defective. The good amp produces loud and clear signal. I love it. I was surprised by how well it powered my 6.5" 250W Pyle speakers. If that were the only criterion, I would give it 5 stars. But unfortunately, the other unit was weak. I had to turn the volume knob up all the way to get decent sound - and then when I switched to bluetooth and the robot voice says "Power on" it was way too loud. So I know that the problem with my second unit was strictly with the stereo amp circuitry and not the speakers. But sound quality was not the only defect. When I used the USB port to power my Amazon Echo Dot, the 3.5mm input stereo signal was full of noise (on both units). But since the USB circuitry is not isolated properly from the stereo amplifier, whenever the power is on, there is a buzz in the speakers. However, I tested making a Bluetooth connection to my Amazon Echo Dot while it was plugged into the USB port and there was no noticeable distortion as there was with the 3.5 mm stereo headphone input. In fact, the BT connection is so loud that I have to set the Echo Dot to 30% volume and turn the amp's volume knob almost all the way down. If I were to crank it up all the way, it would surely blow out the speakers - so we will have to be careful. I wish there were a way to tweak the gain to prevent ear and speaker damage. My original review recommended against getting the USB port as a waste of money. If one intends to use the 3.5 mm stereo input, then the USB port is almost certainly unusable. However, with Bluetooth, it turns out to be quite useful and I'm glad I have it. Amazon took back the bad unit with no hassle and I will buy this or similar model to replace the bad unit. Update: I replaced the unit and the new unit generated noise with no USB input at all when it was set to use the stereo input. However, the bluetooth input outputs a clear signal with no noise. I suspect that the circuitry handling the 3.5 mm stereo input signal is sensitive to RF interference. I did not attempt to track down the source of the noise in the second case, but I suspect it is a design flaw in the unit. Be aware when deploying this unit that it can be a problem. For my application, Bluetooth suffices. In fact, it is more convenient than using a wired stereo input. I use an Amazon Echo Dot as the Bluetooth sound source and this allows me to put the Echo Dot anywhere in the room (where the power cable is less noticeable). It also allows me to use my cellphone or laptop as a sound source. If there were a Bluetooth only version of this, I would use that.

Super easy to install and far exceeded my expectations. No distortion at higher volumes. Highly recommend.

This product is a hidden jem! If you are looking to add speakers to a room and not spend hundreds of dollars with a full surround sound system or the like, I would suggest this product. I was looking to add a "stereo" to my workout room that I was building, but instead I found this in wall receiver. This product has met or exceeded all of my requirements for my workout room build. I have 4x250watt speakers (see components) connected to this receiver and they work great and sound crisp. I would suggest buying a 12V power supply (see components) to hide in the wall, the AC Adapter that it comes with just ruins the look of the "In-Wall" plate (see installation tip). Along the lines of the other comments, the internal components do not look as polished or refined as the face of the product, but it still works well. All said and done I have about $120 into a project that others have said look like a $500+ job, so I am pleased with the results. INSTALLATION TIPS: I would suggest buying a 12V transformer to hide in your wall it helps keep the product looking professional and you don't have to worry about wires being pulled out (see link below in components). I would also suggest having a good pair of jewelry or computer tools available, it makes a difference when you are trying to install the small wires and other components like the power supply. Finally, I would suggest you lay out your wiring and give yourself about 6" of extra speaker wire, this allows you to pull out the receiver and work on it after the drywall is in place. Components used: Power supply 12V 36Watt, more than I needed: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B017R17YQC/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_43 250 Watt speakers, they are made by the same company and sound clear: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0007LCL90/ref=cm_cr_ryp_prd_ttl_sol_66

I had to do a lot of research because I wanted something that really works. After being tired of the low volume on y cell phone, or having to carry a portable speaker into the shower and then charge it back up it was kind of a hassle. So this unit fiex all of that, the Bluetooth is stable, the range for the bluetooth is very good, the AUX and bluetooth work flawlessly, even though the USB port charges your phone, in my case I installed it in my bathroom and of course I won't ever try to charge my phone while in the bathroom.A mix of Waterand Electricity is never good, so for those who are using this unit in a small bedroom, or living room this unit has a lot to offer. I have attached pictures on the unit placed in my wall and everything is hardwired, the audio cna also be hardwired if you want it to connect it to a tv or something else. Since my bathroom was nex to my laundry area I didn't have a lot of work on trying to find a place to install or run the cable beaceusa my laundry is unfinished. SO far this unit is very good and provides a lot of power to your speaker.

I have no complaints. I had it for a few weeks so far and I’m happy.

I have 8 of these installed around the house. We did a reno and I was able to pull new wire and use some old wiring so I have different wire types at each location but it all works. We were also able to add some outlets in the attic which made it much easier than running the power all the way to a single large 12VDC power supply. I can confirm that running the power 50ft did work but I like having extra outlets instead. I can't comment on the quality of the sound since we also used various speaker brands depending on the room and not all have attic boxes around the speakers but so far they sound good to us and are easy to hook up to with Bluetooth. The Aux wiring in the back made it easy to pull over to the TV in each room. My only gripes are the manual which is nearly useless (hence my picture attachment). The other is that with 8 of them, they aren't all unique, I think 5 are different and the other 3 are the same ID on Bluetooth so sometimes it can hook to the wrong phone depending on who has each linked to their phones.

Sorprendido de lo poderoso que es esto para los altavoces de mi piscina al aire libre. Usé la mini entrada 3.5 para conectarme a mi Echo Dot. perfecto!

Bluetooth doesn't work. Repeated follow up with seller, the product is yet to be collected for return. I need refund asap.

Aunque no lo he podido instalar, me gustó mucho. Lo probé con unas bocinas Pile PDIC60. Buena potencia y buen sonido para una solución de audio de uso moderado. Ojo: está diseñado para empotrar y conectar directamente las bocinas a este dispositivo, con alimentación directa al cableado o con enchufe. Súper recomendado si buscas una solución de audio práctica y sencilla.

Lo uso en la instalación de un equipo audiovisual para un auditorio. Muy bien aspecto y sonido, solo que la recepción de Bluetooth es de corto alcance. Por ese detalle no le doy las 5 estrellas, pero las merece!!

esta un poco molesto el conector a la energia pero aun asi, creo que cumple perfectamente su funcion y se integra super bien a cualquier equipo.
