Bought in February installed in July had my boat out 3 times on the water now the piece of garbage is dead. It was professionally installed by a master certified technician so it's done right. Don't waste your money

3000 watt 8channel amp works great, I have this in my bay boat powering 1cheap 12inch boss sub, 2 wetsounds 6.5” ,2 DS18 6.5”,and 2 wetsounds rev 8” sounds amazing and don’t have it turned all the way up!! Just be sure u connect the speakers correctly to the amp because most amps are wired side by side this one is top+ to bottom- on the channels

Update : sellers kindly refunded my money so Kudos to themAs a pro Audio technician of over 40 years I thought I'd give this amp a shot, big mistake, after spending hours making up brackets and then fitting in the boats 3 x 3 under helm area, all was a waste of time. Normally i bench test amps before installing but with 8 speakers to attach that wasn't an option. After finishing the install channel 3 had no output whatsoever. So take it all out and against my better judgement i ask for a replacement. Another big mistake, second one arrives in once again a less than new box with the main fuse bent over. Fit that and hey presto channels 1 & 2 have hardly any output. The amp is huge, heavy and has the most ridiculous non closed mounting holes. the unit is not stereo as all inputs are just one sided channel, a test on all configurations shows its mono. So then on returning two amps no instant refund which can take up to 30 days and there's no way of mounting these amps without scratching the paint surface. So a total waste of time and effort and no refund to use to buy something else. Seriously stick with Rockville, Skar, NVX or a good name brand as I'd hate anyone to waste time and effort like I did. additionally, the waterproof rating on these is the worst, not that it appears it needs water to fail.

First thing to mention is this amp is huge! I don't know what I was expecting but when this thing arrived I was shocked! I bought it for my boat which doesn't have alot of room, so that was my first concern. It was/is a good price for an amp that size, but good luck trying to figure it out.My boat head unit has rca outputs (front, rear, zone, and sub) also, I have 6 - 6.5" speakers and a subwoofer, so this amp having 8 channels made sense (at first). Problem is, there are only 4 single(not left and right) rca inputs on the amp! For example RCA 1 = ch#1/3, 2 = ch#2/4, 3 = ch#5/7, 4 = ch#6/8. I tried everything to make this amp work properly, the best I could do is get left and right speakers to work using front to control ch1/3 and Ch2/4. Then rear to control the remaining 2 speakers and the sub. This config rendered my preamp outputs virtually useless. (couldn't control volume or fade from the console) also, the subwoofer needs to use bridged channels #7/8 to work, but remember those silly inputs?? Channels 7 and 8 are on different inputs!! So you both inputs had to be set for the sub. (no mids/highs to my other full range speakers!)Look.. I wanted to like this amp,I really did... I even tried using rca Y cables to combine left/right into one, but that definitely didn't work. I would say if you have preamp outs on your headunit, definitely don't buy this amp, but even if you don't, the amp doesn't have any other input options! So.... Wtf pyle? Oh and good luck finding any useful information on their website. I checked YouTube, searched the Google for a morsel of something to go on....Nothing.Well needless to say I returned it and bought 2 - 4 channel amps by Infinity Marine. Paid more, but way better in the end.Don't buy this amp...

Purchased this Amp and installed it in my boat the fall of 2018. I was rebuilding a boat and noticed the sound out of one side was always louder. I figured this was something to do with the old wiring. This spring I purchased new speakers and wires and reinstalled it. Same issue. So now I test the amp and find it's not putting out the same power per channel. I did the online Q+A and Pyle asked I send it back for repair. 8 months in, with a 1 year warranty. So I paid the freight and shipped it. So far they have said they have repaired the item,( about 2 weeks for a response) and then charged me to ship it back. I would think if a company made something wrong, and needed to repair their problem, they wouldn't charge the consumer to ship it back. I will comment back if the unit doesn't work again.

Monster amplifier! This thing has plenty of watts and is a good quality product! I'm powering 6 speakers and a subwoofer and this thing powers everything with ease. I'd recommend it to anyone needing a good powerful amp.

I ordered this amp not knowing what to expect but had hopes of power at an affordable price. I Installed it in my boat with 2 10" Fosgate subs, 2 8" Fosgate tower speakers and 4 6 1/2" Polks. Everything sounds great, plenty of power and the best part is that it's all in one amp. Just what I was hoping for. Good job Pyle!
