Pyle Marine Bluetooth Stereo Radio - 12v Single DIN Style Boat In dash Radio Receiver System with Built-in Mic, Digital LCD, RCA, MP3, USB, SD, AM FM Radio, Remote Control, White - PLMRB29W

Listen, this is a $35 stereo, that's REALLY ALL you need to know, but I'll elaborate a little.So for $35, the fact that it even works is a bonus, let alone all these features! Yes the housing is made of plastic and it's VERY lightweight, but I would think the plastic costs at LEAST $35 to manufacture and hey, you even get a cardboard box, 2 wiring harnesses and some instructions inside a ziplock envelope. How do you beat that? You don't! NOT for $35 or even $50! Ever buy a phone case for $100?Moving on, for $35, you get bluetooth, an SD card reader, MP3 player, a remote control and TWO sets of pre-outs!Anyone who complains about this stereo is IMHO an uneducated consumer! At this price point AND in the Pyle tradition, you get WAY more than you should expect and if it lasted you 1 Summer, again, it was a $35 stereo, go buy another one or invest in something that you feel would be better quality. I will say this though, I've had a Pi**neer AVEC touch screen fail on me within 1.2yrs and that stereo cost me $600 and that was for my truck. For my boat, I'm not concerned, YET and I was looking for a 'cheapy' just to see if I'm even going to commit to being a boat owner. This stereo performs perfectly, was a snap to install, didn't break the bank and I sound great connected to my SKAR SK65M's and a Pyle 1200w amp.One reviewer left a 1 star review as if she's soooo disappointed, because she even bought a set of $25 Lanzar speakers, LOL!! Maybe she should've just gotten a bluetooth speaker and called it a day? IDKBottom line is, if you're even looking at this stereo, you're NOT looking to spend high end $$$, so don't expect high end quality, BUT DEFINITELY be prepared to be pleasantly surprised!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great radio for the price. Works well.Fit:Good fit Connectivity:Easy to hook upQuality:Good quality for the price

I had trouble getting the head unit to power on. I had to join the red and yellow wires together to get it to power on. That was suggested to me by Pyle tech support. They were very helpful. Unit looks nice and functions good.

Got this for my van for some more and easy power to my 4 van speakers. 75w x 4 at max settings is a lot and could even power better speakers. Mine a rated at 75w max RMS. Can barely turn the bass all the way up.Great sound and performs very well. My only disappointment is it not having a mid range adjustment.Amazing quality, looks and performance for such a great price.My pictures show day and night lighting so you can see how much more blue it is at night. The contrast of the white lights was a little hard to capture but it looks great and super clean.

I received the radio and installed it in my boat and it sounds great. But before it left China they forgot to put the outside trim ring in the box. Well I finally got ahold of PyleUSA and ask them to send me one I was told I would have to take radio back out and send it back as they don't have just the trim ring. So I guess I will be without a trim ring as I and not pulling radio back out for just that. Next time I will just have to try another brand as this is not good customer service.

The media could not be loaded. Why did you pick this product vs others?:I picked this item for the reviews. I know nothing about electricity OR the first thing about installing a radio. My husband said we should pay someone to install it. I’m glad we didn’t and I tried to do it myself. Tools required were wire cutters and crimpers (one handheld tool) and some wire connectors. Mine were red and I used 16-22g connectors. I did have a non working radio that existed but the faceplate had been removed so there was no way for me to operate the one that existed. I removed the old radio as a whole which had the wiring harness attached to the back and I cut each wire one by one the closest to the harness, to give me the longest wire length to work with. I then took the wire harness that came with this radio and color coordinated each wire connection. Ex. White with black strip to the white with black stripe. Going through each wire that was used on the old one. Not all wires like purple or green were used and needed to be connected for my radio to work. I then connected the ground, slid it back into place, put the trim piece around it, turned my battery on and accessory switch and I was good to go. I didn’t want to spend 100’s of dollars on a radio that would only be used for a season as I live in CT. So this was a great match. I already had JVC speakers installed in my boat which I found out worked fine and played well, so I didn’t not need to install new speakers. Happy boating!!

Great for the money

Worked fine until one day it just quit. Fuse on the back was good. I will buy again
