Pyle 800W Portable Bluetooth PA Speaker - 8’’ Subwoofer, LED Battery Indicator Lights w/ Built-in Rechargeable Battery, MP3/USB/SD Card Reader, and UHF Wireless Microphone - Pyle PSBT85A,Black

The price, the lithium ion battery instead of lead acid like some other rechargeable speakers, and the good reviews, persuaded me to buy this Pyle-PSBT85A portable 8” bluetooth PA speaker. (Purchased New)It arrived just in time to use with my little 10” rechargeable TV after my regular TV quit working. The tiny speaker on the 10” TV sounds kinda harsh, but the ‘line in’ feature on the Pyle speaker made it easy to plug into the ‘line out’ on my 10” TV, giving me a much better listening experience while using the 10” rechargeable TV till I could get a regular TV again.This Pyle speaker also easily connected to my mini mac through bluetooth for listening to music through iTunes. I also have a set of Altec 2.1 powered desktop speakers that’s missing the subwoofer, but with a 3.5mm (1/8”) TRS cable I am able to plug this Pyle speaker into the subwoofer port on one of the Altec speakers, and it works great especially having the iTunes EQ to tailor the sound.At the price I paid ($79) I can’t really expect it, but a built in EQ on this Pyle speaker would make it an even better powered speaker with greater ‘stand alone’ sound tailoring. When I plugged it into my Pyle 4 channel Pro Mixer, Its EQ made the speaker sound like a more expensive speaker, it brought out more of its capabilities.I did a lot of searching before I decided to go with the Pyle PSBT85A 8” speaker (I couldn’t afford their 10” or 12” speaker), and I’m very happy with it. It’s very versatile, portable, and can be stand mounted or placed on its side as a floor monitor for small gigs.The wireless microphone works, but I also plugged my Shure mic into the 1/4” Mic port and it works well through the Pyle speaker.I’m a singer songwriter musician on a very small budget, and I’m glad I purchased this Pyle speaker, it’s been very handy.

Pretty cool and portable, works well for small events, easy to set up and light weight. Sound is good, can use as karaoke .

Im a professional DJ and needed something small and portable to use for small wedding ceremonies. This is a great option for anyone looking for a portable, easy-to-use PA system. You can use the microphone and Bluetooth connection at the same time so you could even combine this with a laptop for a super compact karaoke setup. However, the super loud notification sounds are so HORRIBLE, I had to knock off 1 star (details below).Pros:-Small, lightweight speaker-Very loud-Great value-Good battery capacity (lasts several hours)-Extremely easy to use-Separate volume controls for microphone and Bluetooth or aux input-Perfect for small meetings, ceremonies, etc.Cons:-VERY ANNOYING and VERY LOUD notification sounds when you turn on the speaker or connect/disconnect Bluetooth. Even if volume is turned all the way down, the speaker will blare "SPEAKER ON" at max volume when you turn it on, or yell "BLUETOOTH DISCONNECTED" or "BLUETOOTH CONNECTED" when those actions happen. Not sure who's idea it was to make this a feature but it's really dumb and obnoxious. There is no way to turn off this feature and no way to turn down how loud it is and I can't stress how ear-piercing loud it is. If you are using this for a wedding ceremony or meeting, make sure you set everything up before people arrive or EVERYONE will hear you setting up.-Bass is lacking (would not recommend using for bass-heavy music)-Sound distorts at near-max volumes-Bluetooth range is not very far (my phone disconnected if I stepped about 30ft away).

I got this speaker back in 2021 instead of renting a sound system for my friend's small outdoor wedding. It performed great and we had music for the entire 5 hour ceremony and reception. Since then I have been bringing it to work (i am a librarian and run several programs throughout the year) and it has been a great tool to have on hand and has even replaced the built in sound system in the library's theater for a few programs when it went down last winter. Battery life is fantastic and I only need to charge it every 6 programs or so (every couple months unless I have a 4+ hour program). It's also super light weight compared to the ones the library bought in the past for story time in the park programs so it is easy for me to carry to offsite locations, even without a cart or wagon.Sound quality can get iffy if the volume is all the way up, but that is the only real issue I've had and I rarely need to turn it up that loud unless I'm trying to cover a large area like the winter solstice festival we ran last night in the park outside the library.Overall a great speaker and I would absolutely buy again if my current one ever dies.

By far the worst speaker I purchased my whole life it sounds like complete crap. I wish I could leave 0 stars.The speaker sound is so Distorted, its not funny, can't even listen to it more than half way and it sounds like s*** Do not buy go buy ion speaker or something. That costs more than two hundred bucks

For a reasonable price, this speaker can be used for a home karaoke set up. I liked that it was light weight and portable, without taking up a lot of space. In addition, it has 1/4" mic line in as well as a 3.5mm audio auxillary line in. With these inputs, I was able to plug in another mic system into the speaker and play songs from my TV, while also using the included wireless mic. In no time at all, I was doing my Elvis Presley impersonation from my couch and singing along with my kids. Effectively, in addition to serving as a speaker, it functioned as a mixer, transmitter/receiver (with the included wireless mic), karaoke machine, and home entertainment station all in one. I was satisfied with the range and sound from the included wireless mic. Alternatively, you can play music from your phone or other device using the bluetooth connection. If you are looking for a no frills functional home karaoke set up at a reasonable cost, I would recommend this speaker.
