This amp was so easy to set up! I have it hooked to my 9886 CD Player to power 2 sets of Infinity references and they sound great! Clarity, power, no clipping, what more can you ask for!? Not to mention it bears the Alpine name so you know it'll be a quality product.

April 10, 2008 Crisp, Clean & Powerful

This amp is plenty powerful for mids and highs. It pushes my door speakers (Boston SX-60 fr.; S-65 rr) to levels far exceeding the realms of comfortable. The built in crossover is set to 65Hz. Like I said mids and highs. I have not had any issues with over heating or clipping. This is a high quality amp at a bargain basement price

April 10, 2008 Big improvement in sound

I recently had this Alpine amp installed in my 06 Monte Carlo. It's running with my factory radio, and through Kicker speakers in the doors and Pioneer 5 way speakers in the back. It was a huge improvement in the sound than with the factory amp. I was expecting a little more of a power boost, but the amp is only 40 watts a channel. If I get a factory radio in the future it will sound even better. I am very satisfied with the amp so far, and I would highly recommend it anyone looking for an amp that won't blow your budget. Thanks sonic for a quality amp and a far better price than retail.

I purchased this amp to run the components for the front doors. I have the amp bridged for the 100x2 at 4ohms setup. efficient clean power. I don't even have the gain up that much and its already more then I can handle. It does get warm to the touch after an hour of use. Only thing its missing is an option to run active setup
