Frequently Asked Questions
Can this drive four substantial floor standing Klipsch speakers, each sporting two 10 inch woofers?****
Hello, this device can only support 60 watts per channel. Please visit our website, pyleaudio.com, for more information. Put PTA44BT in the search box after the model number. I’m grateful.
Does this connect optically?****
Hello, there is no optical port on it. I’m grateful.
RMS output: What is it?****
Hello, the power is approximately 30 WRM per + and -. I’m grateful.
How do you make the remote’s volume function? I have a CD jack for connection.****
Hello, it will only function with a particular input, such as Bluetooth, SD, or USB. Visit our website, pyleaudio.com, to view the unit’s further specifications.
What distinguishes the pta44bt from the pta44bt.5?****
It appears to be only the front panel. Just slightly different presentations of the same options.
The receiver is weatherproof, right?****
I’ve owned the amplifier for almost 8 months. On the sea in Florida, in my outdoor kitchen. When not in use, I keep it covered. It effectively powers my Klipsch speakers so far.
I’ve tried all the RCA jacks and modes, but my TV still won’t connect. Can somebody assist me?****
There is simply an audio jack—no video. Make a CD with audio jacks for it.
Will these power four 10″ subwoofers and four atrium 8 series outdoor speakers from Polk Audio?****
Hello, the wattage of your speaker will determine that. Up to 125 watts per channel are supported by the device.
If you plug in a microphone, will the karaoke wireless Bluetooth amp allow you to speak over without pausing the background music, as stated in the description?****
Hello, this response is accurate. “Yes. You may individually set the volumes of each channel and the microphone.” I’m grateful.
Does it function when using wireless headphones?****
Hello, sadly not. Wireless speakers or headphones cannot be used.
What are the sub-connections’ output specifications? not the four consistent speakers.****
A powered subwoofer is required.
Is the audio output mono instead of real stereo, as one reviewer claimed?****
False stereo. This enables you to use speakers outside as well as in various rooms.
What is the remote’s maximum operating range? Thanks!****
It came damaged, so I never had the chance to hear it. I do not advise purchasing.
Can you construct playlists by organising your music in folders on your SD?****
Hello, sadly not. Visit our website, pyleaudio.com, to view the unit’s further specifications. For further information, enter PTA44BT in the search box after the model number. I’m grateful.
