PowerWerks 50 Watts RMS Personal PA System with Bluetooth

I bought this receiver to do karaoke nights with the kids after all the great positive reviews. However, 6 months in and I'm running into issues that I was too excited to notice when I first got the PA speakers.1. The sound compared to other speakers like Echo Dot (3rd gen) or computer speakers is really tin-ny. I currently have the treble turned all the way down and the bass all the way up to get a acceptable sound.2. Bluetooth connectivity is super spotty! If the speaker is already paired with another device, it won't connect to any other devices even if that said device is not on. I've had too many experiences of having to go to a laptop or phone to disconnect the PW50 from the device so that I could connect it to the device I wanted. Also, when connecting through bluetooth, sometimes it shows as being paired, but the speaker won't connect. It's on a standby mode and it won't work.3. Delay in sound with every device I have. There's anywhere between a 5ms to 30ms delay in audio when connected through bluetooth. Granted most bluetooth speakers are like that, but this was used as a karaoke and semi-movie watching speaker so the delay is REALLY noticeable.4. Not too loud even on highest setting for speaking events. The speaker doesn't get loud enough to fill a meeting hall. We took it to an event before COVID broke loose and the speaker was barely audible in the church room which was about 300 x 300 sqft.All in all, I do like the build quality of the speaker. It's very sturdy and heavy duty. But, I wouldn't be able to recommend it.

The speakers buzz now after minimal use. If you want a decent PA then just save up and buy second hand. It's very portable and Bluetooth is a nice feature. I primarily used it for playing guitar and vocals. Now I use it as a footrest... You're gonna get what you pay for bud. I do not recommend this to anyone who plays live music. It's fine for a lil jam sesh in your room I guess.

Wasn't expecting the sound to be as nice as it is for a relatively inexpensive speaker. Bluetooth feature doesn't always work as expected but is nice when it does.

Super happppy!! The blue tooth is cool cause it acts as another input channel - I produce and have a lot of my songs instrumental on my phone so I just connect them and I can have my songs on the amp. Also good if you wanted it for like covers or something where the music will come from your phone. Works great

I love its portability and that it has 2 line inputs. It's perfect for a personal practice amp, personal monitor on stage, and it worked nicely for the smaller gigs where it's just my keyboard and vocals in a smaller space. Love the Bluetooth!

Excelent

I bought one of these because it was on sale at a local music store. I use it in my garage gym and the Bluetooth speakers that I could find were expensive and puny. This looked like it could crank out some sound and was built to withstand a bit of abuse.Over a year later, I'm very happy to report that this has exceeded all my expectations. The sound is pretty good although nobody would mistake the sound for a high end monitor. It's powerful enough to easily blast out music to an uncomfortable volume. It has withstood being kicked around and left in an un-airconditioned garage in FL. I've had zero issues and would absolutely recommend this over the silly little Bluetooth speakers that are typically sold on the consumer market.

We use this for our small church, and it's perfect. Excellent sound quality (and it will get LOUD without distortion), multiple inputs so you can use a phone, guitar, or other audio source and a couple of microphones all at once. We only need one of these for our small space but I like that I could get a second one and have stereo. Had the previous version of this speaker until it blew its zap a few weeks ago -- super happy with this one as we were with the previous for many years of good service. If this one ever breaks I'll just get the next generation of the same thing!
