Unit is small but packs a big punch
it was what I needed to complete my system out in the barn. The features were well thought out for the use of the product by the average guy.

Versatile MP3 Player
I like this MP3 Player [32GB SD card capacity, direct access to up to 9,999 songs via remote, random play feature, fast forward, remembers last song played and automatically starts there, remembers last mode setting like random play, digital volume control, pause, displays track number and song title, can display folder titles]. The player has a durable remote for the MP3 player with “direct TV” type buttons rather than “microwave oven” type buttons, (I have used this remote for over three years with no problems). I use this player to play MP3 files although it can play WAV files if you want.
I like the preamplifier section [headphone output (no audible noise with Sennheiser HD580 headphones), Bass, Mid and Treble controls].
Features that I do not use and do not care about: Bluetooth, FM radio, USB Record, Microphone input. If you like these features you will have to supply your own rating.
I Rated this unit at three stars because the Recording output feature does not work, and the Tape Monitor function does not work. The lack of these features reduces the flexibility of the device. If you do not use these features, you can rate the unit higher.
Limitations: the channels are reversed (compensate by reversing the input to your amplifier), the preamplifier is inverting (compensate by reversing the polarity at your speakers), there is a significant reduction in low frequency response (try to compensate by using tone controls to adjust to what you want). The low frequency reduction is only noticed by using high quality speakers or headphones. The MP3 player does not display ID3 data. There is saturation distortion on the MP3 player output (compensate by setting the MP3 player digital volume to 20 to eliminate distortion). Whether this distortion is audible depends on your setup, on mine I can hear the distortion. The Balance control does not work very well for me. The ground lift switch does not work. These limitations are important to me but they may not be noticeable by others.
Out of the box this MP3 player sounds good (“Atlantis Soundtrack and Sennheiser HD580 headphones, digital volume set to 20).
For those with technical ability you can do like I did and rewire the unit to fix the non-functioning recording output, the non-functioning Tape input, the low frequency reduction in output, the incorrect phase, the reversed channels, and improve the adjustment range of the midrange control, make the balance control more useful, remove the Microphone feature to lower the overall noise, and fix the ground lift control switch.
Out of the box the unit sounds good, and with modifications the unit is worthy to use with high quality speakers, amplifiers and headphones.

Price reflects quality
Bought to use as a bluetooth preamp for a sound system. Biggest problem is i can only get 18ft line of sight bluetooth range short compared to other bluetooth devices I've used. FM radio only picks up the strongests of stations. Tone controls work well audio quality is on par with this price level. USB input only accepts 32gb tried a external hard drive 320gb all it did was beep useable but disappointing for $100 price

If this had a 6 star option I definitely give it that. Has everything built into it, plenty of AUX inputs, 2 GAIN controls one for the remote and the other for master, both work separately from each other so you can pump some serious sound from this Preamplifier. As far as sound, definitely sounds better than my Rockville Preamp. This unit has a few pounds of weight to it so that indicates to me it’s built with quality parts. Great little preamp for the money. Read full review...

Pyle pre-amp
Wow. What a great little unit, and not just for the price. This thing does everything. It's got inputs for your entire audio group, Phono, CD, Tape, even FM radio and USB. Im very impressed. Oh, and did I mention bluetooth.
This is all you need with your amp or powered speakers. I'm buying another one for my living room.Read full review...

Good basic preamp
Good price for a basic preamp.. Having tone controls for bass, midrange and treble is nice. Seems to sound good to my ears. Having FM radio is nice too.( For best reception connect antenna properly..) Manual is very basic. Overall , a generally OK unit.Read full review...
