craigofbelle: The From the manufacturer section clearly advertises this amp as a Wireless Bluetooth Home Audio Amplifier, with Bluetooth Connectivity. There was also a product image of the aux power cable labeled as "BT Antenna", which has since been removed.
With that said, I would have purchased this amp regardless of bluetooth, but I was really looking forward to using that feature.
I have it connected to a pair of old speakers and subwoofer and it sounds great. Would recommend if if you don't care about the bluetooth.

BB: I use this little amp for a basic turntable setup with some wired bookshelf speakers. The turntable has a built-in pre-amp so setup was a breeze - just connect a few cables and go. It's not audiophile quality sound, but it's waaaaaaay better than my turntable's built-in speakers and didn't break the bank. The tone adjustment is nice, even with just bass and treble adjustments.

Here's my basic setup:
Ion Luxe Bluetooth Record Player: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09QGWVCV4
Diamond-tip cartridge upgrade: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08P4H7BCH
Singing Wood T25 60W Speakers: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CD39LZR
Novogratz Turntable stand: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08CQF7X1K

And of course, this little Pyle amp. Overall I'm pretty pleased with this setup. I may eventually change the power supply for the amp, but it's by no means a high priority. The sound output right now is enough to fill a large room with clear music loud enough to prevent normal volume conversations.

Michelle: Firstly, understand that I am not an electronics whiz so maybe I bought the wrong thing. Those who truly understand what all the numbers mean will be better equipped.
I bought this to drive my 50W Klipsch bookshelf speakers (8ohm) from my TV. It just doesn't have the power to do the job well resulting in needing to turn volume level up and you can hear hum/feedback. Idea is a good one, think maybe I just picked the wrong item for what I wanted to do.
Great packaging, clear instructions, very small discrete size.

Blake Doan: I was plesently surprised with what this little amp can do. I've been using it here and there for 2 years and hasnt let me down yet. Not HI-FI audiophile quality but still good enough that I'm running some passive TOA studio monitors with it and have very little noticable distortion (within the 25-50% volume level range I feel i should mention that as I rarely go over the 50% mark). Only complaint is that when turning the amp on and off you do get some popping coming from the channels. Great amp for the price may end up purchasing a few more for other little projects.

John: UPDATE: After just under two years, it is still working with no issues. I use to play music from an Amazon Dot over my bookshelf speakers. So, the amp is on 24/7 waiting for me to tell Alexa to play music. Pretty darn reliable for the money.

Original Review: I have wanted a pair of Klipsch speakers since I first heard them at a friends house in the mid '80s. Back then I couldn't come close to affording them. Last month, I saw the Klispch R 41M's on sale at CostCo for under one hundred bucks. I couldn't resist. Suddenly, I was in need of something to put in between my phone and the new speakers. Space is a big concern in our house, so I needed something small, And since I needed a new stereo system like a hole in the head, I didn't want to spend too much. After spending some time on Amazon, I settled on the PFA300. Most of the competition had a fair amount of negative reviews, as did the PFA300.

I was cautious at first. I hooked it up to a pair of old bookshelf speakers. Unlike what I read in a couple of other reviews, they didn't blow up as soon as I powered up the amp. The amp worked just fine. I then set up the Klipsch's. While I am not a true audiophile, I think...

Amazon Customer: It is a nice little amp and can do a good job in recroom/livingroom/boardroom setting. The sound quality seems good.
There is no way that it is 90Watts however. When the DC power supply is 12V-2.x amps which equates to a little more than 24 watts total power it can't possibly be putting out 90 Watts peak power but regardless it's a decent unit for the price paid. I installed a pair of 100W speakers on 16AWG speaker wire connected to a projector in a small library. The sound quality was significantly improved over the 10W speakers of the projector and perhaps doubled the volume. With the volume set at Max on everything the Amp could not over drive the speakers which was by good design and the volume was more than loud enough if you were within 20 feet or so of the speakers. At the back of the library (40 feet away) you could still hold a conversation with voices slightly raised just to give you an idea... The ceiling height in the library is only 8 feet, room is wide open, about 1500SF carpeted floor space and tile ceiling so the acoustics are decent.

The Dude: Day 2 and my second purchase of the brand name Pyle!....

I found out the static and the sound clear up after a good while of use and it starts to get more loose and less statistic and glitch altogether, so hope is not lost for 50$.

Update coming soon.

UPDATE: It has been one whole year!!... lots is wrong and the list just grows.. but in the end! Soldering is you're answer if you run into any problem... like the TONE and BASS & TREBLE dials!... for me the BASS Nob is broken and i can't get to a mid rang of the thing with out it static pulsing and losing sound half way through... but up side, it does go full BASS without losing Quality. And for the TONE button... i just ripped it out and left the inner metal clip on TONE instead of DIRECT, it well get loose and start sliding the clip between TONE and DIRECT sound input. Full 5 stars for its durability once you get in there and reinforce the damn thing, with Hot glue and Solder.

schulmann: This PFA300 is intended for my bedroom to replace my $180 Onq Broken amplifier. I didn't want to buy one of those expensive OnQ mini amplifiers. I decided that I needed a very small amplifier to hide under a designer furniture shelf so it can replace my OnQ junk.

My 1st PFA300 was not working at all out of the box, I have tested input and output by inverting cables but left side did not work at all. After extensively searching I decided to give a second try to this PFA300. So amazon exchanged my broken unit very quickly within 48h with express shipping. I am not disappointed at all with the new PFA300. I have 8 inches OnQ inwall speakers in the ceiling. They never made a so good sound ! I used the movie Drive to test this PFA300, ALL frequencies are properly transmitted to the speakers. I can clear hear voices and deep bass. Drive is the toughest movie to calibrate on a amplifier. This PFA300 does the job perfectly on the Drive movie. Regarding power I don't have a single doubt that this amplifier is at least 2x45W. I can shake the entire house when running full power. Bass and tremble adjustment buttons are working also perfectly. Especially the bass boost is very very...

Gary T.: This Amp is nothing special, which is exactly why you buy an amp of this type. It takes the signal, amplifies it enough to power a pair of smaller speakers (6 inch or smaller is best in this power range), doesn't have a large amount of distortion or noise, and isn't overpowered. Some would say that's a bad thing since I didn't say there is NO distortion or noise, and its not a powerhouse, but if that is what you are looking for, you are looking at the wrong type of product, and in the wrong price range. For most people, just looking to power a couple of speakers, who aren't going to nitpick everything, and obviously not in the "high end" audiophile market, this amp will probably work for you.

Sound Quality - I am VERY picky in this area, and were I using for my main stereo setup, I would not be happy with it, but then again, that is not the type of setup this is for. It does have SOME, a very small amount, of audible noise, and a small amount of distortion at some frequencies/levels, but most people wont hear it, I have a trained ear and hear EVERYTHING. But the sound it puts out IS okay, and will sound good on most small speakers, or bookshelf size speakers. You can turn...
