Many ports are wide open and dirt and dust could easily find its way inside. What would have made the bag an excellent value, would be to have flaps to keep dust out of the unit. The clear plastic may indeed yellow and crack over time. It is a CARRYING BAG and not a protective bag. ![]() The disappointment is that it does not PROTECT most of the important parts of the unit. All features can be used with the bag in place. The benefit of having this black bag included is that it improves the look of this system. However, most will enjoy using the over the shoulder strap. The bag zippers around the unit and has a cut out for so you can still access the handle. The front and back are mesh to allow the sound to transmit and there is a convenient side pock that will hold your ball and lav mics but not the head set mic. Black Nylon and clear plastic with die cuts allows everything to be used while in the bag. The bag is designed so that the system will be fully functional. With small systems, the closer to the audience ear level, the louder they will sound.Īt about 14 lbs, one can appreciate the retractable handle or better yet the included soft carry bag with padded strap. Not that I expected it to come with a pole mount but if the base was flat, one could have been added by the user. The base has molded feet and does not have the option to put a pole mount. There are knobs and unprotected ports on most of the system that could be damaged if putting this unit in a case or if it tipped over in the back of a car. There is only one position it can be transported the upright position. The PWMA-120 lacks a protective transport design. The plastic front grill will protect the speakers but one wonders if it blocks some sound and allows for some noticed “plastic vibration” during some heavier bass sounds. ![]() The PWMA-120 lacks any cosmetic design but seems to be as compact as it can be. The initial look and feel is of “boom box” quality grey plastic. (I expect them but compared to systems costing at $150-200 more, some of these features are welcomed to see.) I will go into some of these features later but two are a built in cassette deck with record and two speakers- a woofer and compression tweeter. The PWMA-120 comes with many features and extras one might not expect for $150. The cost of technology is always changing and there is always something new on the market that can sometimes compete or at the least, DO THE JOB. However, I feel some of those systems are over priced to start with. I did not have any illusions that this would be as high quality as $400-800 systems. What other systems are on the market that would cost less and do the job?Ĭould the Pyle Pro fit the bill? At the end I will compare it to the popular MiPro MA-101 system to see how it stacks up. If you have never priced small systems that pack a punch, you might be shocked to see the prices at $400 and up for portable units. I wanted to see if there was a small unit that I can just put down and turn on and have it reach 100 people. I usually do not have the time to separate a case and run wires and tripods. Small size and fast set up and music playing ability was also the goal. I was in need of a rechargeable system with built in mics that would cross over from small house parties to fire house halls. I was able to use a coupon to get mine delivered for about $126.Ĭurrently, it would seem to be a low cost solution if it lived up to its claim of 150 Watt peak, 75 Watt RMS. The average US street price as of this date is $150 delivered. (One mic as a lav or headset option included.) The Pyle Pro PWA-120 is rechargeable, portable PA system with two built- in VHF channel mics. Others who OWN the unit are welcomed to put their own two cents in after. Just scroll down to the end if you do not want a complete understanding of this unit. ![]() Pyle Pro PWMA-120 Review and comparison to the MiPro MA-101
