Size: 2x120 Watt
Many reviews here talked about the unit overheating, and some complained about burned and smoked units.
I have been in the audio business for 30 years, and was somewhat surprised at the lack of ventilation allowed in the case...to the point that they had even glued cloth over the top and side vent holes!!! Seemed odd and unnecessary to me.
Still, I played it for a full day at low volume to "burn it in", and then noticed that when I turned it up to 1/2 volume, it did seem to get a bit warmer than I would feel comfortable with.
Open case...rip off cloth grill material...and then proceed to use a screwdriver to "lift" every other vent, and "depress" between ones. I did this on top and bottom and sides. Result? Much cooler running!!!!! I've done this on most of my amps over the years, including ones in the $4000 range. Why not? Basically, the manufactures don't have time to tweak like this, and it does look a bit odd.
So, I don't know if this will fix the issues, but basically, heat kills!
2 weeks later running 24/7, it still sounds great (especially for the price). Next, I will lift the unit with some fabricated "feet", to allow more cooling underneath as well. A couple of pennies under each foot would be good for a start.
I am surprised at the sound quality...fairly clean and transparent, with less distortion than I would have expected. At low volumes, it sounds great, and is non-fatiguing. Distortion does start at about 2/3 volume, but even with speakers rated at 8 ohms, and medium efficiency, it plays plenty loud for my tastes. A tiny amount of 60 cycle hum is noticeable at 0 volume, but I don't hear it at all when 4 or 5 feet away.
Overall, I am considering buying another one for another room!!!!!!!
BTW...I am running a 16 GB flash drive in the USB...no problems.

For a cheap amp I did not expect true 2 x 120 watts of power, but I did expect more than 2 x 50. Using an oscilloscope, multimeter, and a 440hz sine wave it became apparent that this amp can only put out clean power up to 2 x 50 watts at 4 ohms and 2 x 25 watts at 8 ohms. The volume knob does go high enough to put out 2 x 120 watts at 4 ohms, but with way too much distortion to be practical. I did not bother to test the other features of this amp, but I bet it's still a decent amp if you don't ask it to put out very much, or if don't mind your sine waves looking like Machu Picchu.

Bottom line: seems like a decent amp, but only puts out 40% of claimed power before distortion takes over.

Granted I was a little skeptical about this little amp being able to meet my expectations; but I figured for $55 I'd give the 2x75w unit a shot. I was looking for an amp to power two outdoor speakers (Dual LU43PW) that we wanted to mount on our deck. I liked the fact that this was everything I needed (2-channel, AUX input, bass/treble controls, Component input) and nothing more. I actually installed this unit, then connected my Logitech Bluetooth Adapter to it via audio component cable to the back of the unit so that I wouldn't have to keep coming to the Amp just to change songs. I paired the Bluetooth adapter to my phone, turned on the amp, selected a song to play... then I honestly crossed my fingers in hopes of HALF decent sound. What I got was amazing clarity, bass, and vloume at only 1/3 of the way up!

Granted most of the credit probably needs to go to the speakers, but I was highly impressed by the sound output on the amp for such a reasonable price. Now if you are looking to wake up your neighborhood, this probably isn't the unit for you. But if you simply want to listen to music in the comfort of your own deck/patio at a fairly loud volume level or simply want some subtle ambiance to a romantic dinner, then this little guy will fit the bill!

The only negative thus far is the fact that the lights on the front of the unit are REALLY bright, so if you plan on setting this amp anywhere near a location with low-light, keep in mind that the room will LIGHT UP blue! Some, like myself, may think this is cool; while others may find it annoying, so it is worth noting.

The USB port will only work with a memory stick up to 2 GB (confirmed this) and WILL NOT play any music from an iPod via USB (haven't attempted an Android based phone where music is stored on a memory card though). There are plenty of options around this with other inputs however.

I must admit, when the first unit (120W/channel model) arrived, it sounded great with my two outdoor speakers. But the enjoyment lasted only briefly, until the Pyle went up in smoke, literally. The thing heated up so much that the case was hot to the touch. And I was only running the unit at about 1/3 the max volume with plenty of ventilation. Because the amp played my mp3's from an SD card beautifully, and I also listened to my cable box radio stations thru the rear RCA input, I wanted the thing to work. So, I ordered a replacement. Well, guess what? The replacement, also played briefly at about 1/3 the max volume, got hot to the touch and burned up as well! I suspect the power supplies are providing too much juice to the circuit boards. Regardless, I'm not willing to test Pyle's entire bad batch, so I'm returning both lemons and unfortunately will have to seek a similar amp from another maker. It's a shame, because I really liked the amp.

UPDATE 1/19/2016:
I grabbed the Pyle PTAU055 (120W/CH) about 2.5 years ago, and that unit is still going strong, powering my outdoor speakers. Nice!
