Excellent system for a bedroom
By Ray on Reviewed in the United States on November 4, 2018
This product fit my needs perfectly for the bedroom. Look up the product specifications before buying, especially if you believe that you are purchasing a surround system with Boom-Box volume, because you will you will be disappointed for not doing the homework. There is at least one other reviewer who helped me decide to purchase this product because his application was similar to mine. I have setup in my bedroom a 27 inch LG TV with one HDMI input (no fiber-optic sound output option), configured with a HDMI Roku streaming stick. I wanted better sound in my bedroom than my LG TV could provide with its built in speakers. The volume in the bedroom was meant to be lower than my sound system in the entertainment room. I had a couple of spare Bose speakers laying around that I wanted to use for the bedroom TV setup. The Pyle PFA540BT amplifier fit my application perfectly with no compromise in quality. I wired (using 16-gauge wire) the two Bose speakers to the amplifier, inserted the Roku stick into one of the two HDMI inputs of the amplifier, and inserted an HDMI cable into the HDMI output of the amplifier and inserted the other end of the cable into the TV. I also connected an F-Type female plug wire antenna to the antenna terminal of the amplifier to make use of the built-in FM-radio when I'm not watching TV. The amplifier also has AUX inputs which I have not yet used. I have been using the above described setup for more than one month and I am very pleased with the Pyle amplifier. The amplifier has sufficient power at 20 Watts per channel to drive the Bose speakers with ample volume when the volume-dial is set about mid-way. I can stream video to the TV using the input mode set to the Roku stick. The sound quality coming out of the Bose speakers is much better than the TV speakers. There are no issues with voice not being synchronized with video streaming from the Roku stick. The amplifier's remote control is super easy to use. Even though the instructions seem sparse, they are very clear about how to operate the system. The remote has separate control buttons for all the features, and all the controls are also on the amplifier unit. The amplifier also picks up many FM-radio stations using the simple wire antenna I added. The amplifier has lots of memory to store favorite stations. The amplifier's Bluetooth feature also works flawlessly. I linked my Windows 10 laptop to the amplifier via Bluetooth. Of course, the incredible sound from the Bose speakers was much better than the laptop speakers. A Bluetooth connection to my iPhone was also accomplished with ease. The Pyle PFA540BT amplifier is a handsome and well-built, low-cost unit that has a small footprint. It rests neatly on my dresser next to the TV. I have not configured my bedroom entertainment system for surround sound, but it provides the option of connecting up to five speakers and a sub-woofer. I am very happy with the purchase I made because I chose the correct product for my application.

Horrible unit maybe QA F***ed up. EDIT: On a 2nd try and still a bad product
By Ricafort Caballes on Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2021
FIRST THING THEY R NOT SUPPORTED BY AMAZON RETURNS. PAY OUT OF POCKET TO EVEN GET A REPLACEMENT UNIT OR RETURNING IT. EDIT: Gave this product a 2nd shot and I got fooled again. Atleast I can return it for free now because I will be returning it for a 2nd time. Either this is a bad & cheap product or there is no Quality Control with these guys. I'm hoping that it's the latter because the one that I got came in broken. One of the slots to put a speaker wire broke at 1st use and won't take a wire. The sound quality is a bit hit or miss. At different times it would have a hissing or a sudden but quick change in volume it is really weird. Something that my older and bigger receiver had no problem with. When I try to connect it to either of my PCs via HDMI, it cannot even register this device. My PCs' audio drivers r updated. IDK why this won't even see this device, I won't see it on the port. EDIT: The unit I got was functional this time, no broken parts. However, it still cannot connect to a PC via HDMI. While connecting it via aux still produced hissing and bad sound
