Pyle Indoor/Outdoor PA Horn Speaker - 8” Portable PA Speaker with 8 Ohms Impedance & 65 Watts Peak Power - Mounting Bracket & Hardware Included PHSP5, White

I mounted mine under the hood of my truck and connected it to my CB radio and use it to announce to other drivers that their vehicle has a problem like no tail lights! I get a "thumbs up" response and a smile from other drivers when they hear me!Sometimes when a dog is in traffic and might get run over I will yell at it to "Go Home!" Works every time!

Just tried this out with a cheap 100watt per channel (50 watts at 8 ohms I believe) mini amp in an open air space. I used a Harrison Labs 100Hz high pass filter to roll off the bottom, and the music did not distort at full blast. I turned it on, walked in front of it 10 steps (20 feet) and turned my head and quickly had to turn away because it was still painfully loud. I walked a total of 100 feet and turned around and it was just about comfortably loud. I had to run back to turn it off so the neighbors don't call the cops.I need to be able to cover the depth of a football field and I think two of these will absolutely do it.Regarding the sound quality, it's not pleasant. They run at 500Hz to 5KHz. Sound quality is not what these horns are for. Don't buy them thinking you're going to enjoy listening to music on them. They're for covering large areas with sirens or addressing the public in a big open space. They're meant to be mounted 20 feet up and cranked up really loud.UPDATE: These horns worked on the event I mentioned. 7 loud speakers and a pair of these plus cheap tweeters on two 200 watt amps crossed over with a digital mixer and dynamics compressor on each driver did the trick. No distortion, and delivered intelligible speech to an area two football fields in square footage. I actually used them a second time this past Saturday in a field roughly a football field and a half and they worked well there too, along with two 15" loud speakers.One negative thing I could say is that one of them came with the polarity backwards. Not sure how they screw something like that up and I didn't notice it until I tested an amp and hooked two of them in parallel. I wouldn't take a star off for that, it's not exactly a deal breaker, but you can't expect the quality control to be 100% I guess. I suggest you test for polarity if you're buying two or more of these and make sure they match so you don't get blind spots.

Bought it for my truck for my PA system and it works fine but it isn't as loud as I need it to be. Other people can't hear it well unless they got there windows down. But it is still kinda loud if your not around noisey areas.

First, let me say that I have had some issues with other Pyle products but these speakers are good. Bought four of these for our small town 6 man football press box. We were attempting to use concert speakers but the other side of the field could not hear the announcer, especially on windy days. Now, everyone can hear. A couple of things to consider, these are 8 ohm speakers. In order to maximize the output of your amplifier without damaging it, your resistance (ohms) has to match the per channel resistance recommended for your amp. I have these hooked up so that the resistance at the amp is 3.7 ohms. The suggested resistance for the amp is 4 ohms but can go as low as 2 ohms. Getting the resistance correct at your amplifier is very important in order to protect your amp and maximize output. These speakers emphasize the mid and upper range of frequencies. They produce very little bass. If you want good fidelity, you will need to combine them with another speaker to provide bass. The sound goes out in a conical field expanding as you get farther away from the speaker. (think shotgun vs hand grenade if you understand ordinance) If your audience does not rest within the cone, they will not be able to hear the sound very well.

Seller knew it was "in pieces" with a poor attempt to assemble it, and it was assembled totally incorrectly.That said and excusing an obvious attempt to just get rid of it ... I did buy it used and re-engineering it to work was so basically simple.Pyle is good quality and Im glad I got it. :). Paid too much considering the poor attempt to assemble.Seller should have just unassembled it and sold it that way or lower his price. IMHO. 2 stars off for that.

I attached this speaker to the top of a pole being used to hold purple martin houses (plastic "gourds"). For those not familiar with purple martin behavior, these birds are attracted to the "dawn song" of other purple martins. Playing these sound effects very early in the morning supposedly encourages young martins to check out housing provided by humans and make such housing their summer homes year after year. Attaching the speaker to the pole and connecting it to a CD player were relatively simple tasks. I turned the speaker upside down so it is pointing up at about a 45 degree angle, so birds flying high in the sky will hear it (and so the sound is not directed at neighbors). I also drilled a hole in the underside of the speaker to avoid rain water from pooling inside. So far, the speaker itself is working like a champ and the sound effects seem to be playing loud enough to be heard from quite a ways off. Now we wait to see if the sound effects attract the martins.
