The Pyle PAMP1000 is working perfectly as a subwoofer amp for an Audiosource 8 inch in wall subwoofer. I have it set up in bridge mode and it is providing plenty of power.
It is connected to my Yamaha RX-V471 by rca cable from the 'subwoofer' out to the line 2 right rca input of the Pyle amp. From there the speaker wires connect to the speaker A Right + and Left - indicated in the manual for use in bridge mode. I set up my 5.1 system using the Yamaha auto set-up. Before I began I turned the Pyle volume for the sub to half (indicated in the Yamaha manual for subwoofer set up). Then I ran the auto-set up. The Yamaha set the level of the subwoofer to +10db. If I find the bass is too much or too little, I turn the Pyle volume for the sub up or down. I've found a little more than half-way is just about perfect.
Auto-on is also working as expected for this amp. When I turn on the TV, the Yamaha turns on then the Pyle turns on a few seconds later and then the bass kicks in. When I power off the TV, the Yamaha turns off and it takes the Pyle about 5 minutes to power down.
This amp was more expensive than a plate amp I was also considering, but this unit fits right in my av cabinet and I can make adjustments easy. I would have put a plate amp in the basement or closet and making adjustments would have been an ordeal. It was worth it to pay more for that convenience. The $84.99 price of this unit seems right on.
For operation, convenience, and price, I give it 5 stars. I wanted this review to provide the information I was looking for when considering this unit as a subwoofer amp.
