The PLMCA90 1200 Watts Amp and 4 Speaker system is my third Pyle motocycle stereo purchase. For the price you can't beat this excellent 4 speaker system. I Have all 4 speakers mounted to the handelbars and at 65 mph (I Have a Windshield) the sound is crisp and clear. The USB charger is a plus and charges my Ipod Nano with no problems. Installation is streight forward taking about 2 to 3 hours. Everything you need is included. I do recommend using in-line fuses and heat shrink wrapping your connections especially the Male/Female connection between the amp and speakers for extra protection against the elements. I've installed an older Pyle 2 speaker system on my friends bike 2 years ago. After seeing and hearing my new system it looks like I'll be installing another Pyle PLMCA90 4 Speaker system on his bike too. Keep up the good work making Affordable/Quality products.

Ok, seeing as Michael never replied to me I bought this system anyways to find out for myself how good it is and I am GLAD I DID it ROCKS. I would like a bit more bass ( if the speakers are mounted to a trunk they do produce more bass than on the bars ) but for the money you are not going to beat this setup. Installation is up to you, everything it pretty much plug and play, the only "problem" I have with it is the included volume control it TOUCHY sometime it will gradually adjust the sound and sometimes it goes to the extreme ( either up all the way or down ) really a minor gripe though as this system BLOWS AWAY the other shark systems I had ( pretty much all that were worth buying ) The PLMCA90 ROCKS plain and simple, have been running 70mph and can still hear it and understand what is playing even through the wind. STILL loving this system months later, even added two more speakers on the trunk for the passenger to get "direct sound" and I have two speakers mounted to the bar and two mounted to the forks for the front sound and it ROCKS, running 80+ on the interstate and STILL ABLE TO HEAR MY TUNES !!!UPDATE
now 18 months later and still loving this system get LOTS of comments about how good it sounds and looks people don't even notice the amp that is in plain site lol the only problem is the volume control has never really "broken in" it is still very touchy but a minor gripe for a system that cost a fraction of what other systems cost that it blows away.
NEW UPDATE riding back home from dinner & bike night, one of my speaker brackets just snapped ( NO reason at all no bumps in the road NOTHING ) and when I went to turn left the speaker was between the tank and the triple tree causing me to be unable to turn left and almost got us KILLED.
SO BE AWARE of these "Z" brackets and MAKE SURE IF YOU USE THE "Z" BRACKETS TO HAVE A ZIP TIE ON THE WIRE CLOSE TO THE MOUNT SO IF IT SNAPS THE ZIP TIE WILL HOLD YOUR SPEAKER UP OUT OF THE WAY.
and the volume control has only gotten worse so I am dropping my review to 2 stars still sounds good enough but when you can't control the sound and a speaker almost kills you it is hard to love it.

I ordered this direct from Amazon on a Friday, the stereo arrived only a few days later -surprising as I live in Canada and it normally takes a while I did have some issues with the item but Amazon handled the issue quickly and better than I could have imagined. Customer Service was so amazing I wondered why every retailer couldn't be this good! So rest assured that if you have issues, Amazon will look after you.So onto the stereo the contents were well ackaged and protected. The instructions were somewhat lacking, but installation is rather simple, and I had previously installed a Shark 250 W on another bike I had. The stereo and wiring is plug and play. I put this stereo on my 2002 HD Road King, the T Tap went in perfectly into the harnes located under the seat but on top of the fender. Mounting the speakers was easy -I don't have a fairingI put a speaker on either side of my Tac using the P clamps and one under each mirror. All the wiring I ran through the Nicel and under the console above the tank.
Here is where the problems began, there was not sufficient length to run from the handle bars to the wiring harness out of the amp, which I mounted in the compartment under the front part of the seat. On top of that the harness made for a bad connection to the speakers so the sound was junk. To fix this I clipped off the harnesses and direct attached the wires to each other, and also added some length to the wires by patching in additional wires, still sounds like junk. Then I realized that both my USB charger and volume control disc had frayed wires. Again I did some patch work, and wow man did the stereo sound awesome! It's clear as a bell over the pipes, not an issue. The wire, connectors and heat shrink came to about 30$ at Canadian Tire (but if you're American, remember that we pay double to triple on what you guys pay).
Overall, the speakers blend seamlessly into the look of the bike. The amp and wiring was very easy to conceal, as the amp is quite small and there are plenty off nooks and crannies on the bike. My only gripe style wise, are the USB charger, which is big, bulky and difficult to conceal on the handle bars. Also, the volume control knob is poorly designed and only moderately concealable on the handle bars. If PYLE and SHARK paired up, they would probably be putting out the best and loudest stereo at this price point. But I have to say that I enjoy the Pyle stereo over the Shark.
It took under an hour to install the stereo on the bike, but several more hours to make the necessary repairs, so I could use it while I await replacement parts.
Hope this helps
