| Review written by ruben from Albuquerque, NM This amp is pushing my 10" L5 solo-baric and it pushes the juice clean and mean. My old pioneer 7400 bridged would cause my lights to dim with the volume 1/3 the way up, people would think my car was flashing them. replaced with this and it is pushing 100 watts more/200 peak and I never see the lights dim. the power is so clean and louder, I have yet to hear the volume drop from the sub, blows the competition away and matches my solo-baric perfectly. Alpine quality is definitely present with a small footprint. |

| Review written by kumar from blaine, MN I love this little amp...so far it's blown everything it's come in contact with, even my 15" CVR. if you're looking to pound on a buget, look no further. The legendary alpine quality is present and at it's best here. |

| Review written by Alex from Pittsburgh, PA Had this amp for over a year now and it's still going strong. Originally had it hooked to a single alpine e 12. sealed box with the gain turned up all the way. ;) blew the sub in a week. upgraded to a dual ported box tuned to 33hz. again with two e 12 subs (wired to 2 ohms). this time i set the gain for 75% max volume (the right way to set a gain) haven't had a chance to measure the db's but it gives me a headache. best prices anywhere. recommend all alpine products. amazing quality at great prices. |

| Review written by Johnny Boy from Florida I just installed this amp two days ago, so I don't have it dialed in perfectly but so far its been great. I ran it for about 30min straight today and the amp wasn't even warm. Its pushing a rockford p3l s12 in my crewcab silverado. I was told to break-in this new shallow sub so i havent turned anything up all the way and this thing is bangin already. This amp is small and eeeeasily fit under my backseat along with a capacitor and looks sweet. Great amp for a dollar per watt build! |

| April 30, 2009 | Amazing amp! soo much power! | ||||||||||||
| Review written by Kevin from La Crescenta, CA This amp DEFINITELY gives u a bunch of power for the price! It makes my alpine Alpine SWR-1242D bump like crazy! Alpine recommended using 2gauge wiring, but i used 4gauge and it's still pulling adequate power. I love the way the amp has a lip to hide the wiring and makes the amp float there. I would definitely recommend this amp for anybody looking for clean tight bass. |

| Review written by tundra08 from Zebulon NC I have this amp and it is pushing a Rockford P3 shallow mount which calls for 300 watts rms. This is a great amp, it hits clean and tight and with no distortion all the way up. It is also very compact, and it runs cool. I highly recommend this amp for someone just wanting to add some bass in there system, this amp will put out enough power to power to subs, and really sounds good. |

| Review written by Jake from Highland Heights, KY This amp is the best bang for your buck. It has many features and is extremely durable. This amp won't disappoint you. |
| January 9, 2009 | This Little Amp Packs A Huge Punch | ||||||||||||
| Review written by Allen from Hamilton, OH This amp is powering my two MTX T5510-04s wired in parallel. I would never expect something so small to put out this much power. It's actually pretty astonishing how much it can make my subs move. I would recommend a capacitor because this will most like dim your headlights. I have a 750 CCA battery, and it still dims my headlights. The design is very sleek. Alpine lived up to its name in the amplifier field by producing this product. I would recommend this amp to anybody whose subs fit in the power output range for this amp. |

| Review written by reed from oxford, MS i have this amp running one kicker 12" and it hits so hard this amp looks great also. I have it wired at 2 ohms and it puts out every bit of 500 watts i highly recommend this amp for anyone needing a high amount of power. |
| April 25, 2008 | Good Dependable Power | ||||||||||||
| Review written by Robert from Elkton, MD My spending limit for an amplifier was $200 and I needed something to push my 1 Boston Acoustic G212-44 DVC at 2 ohms in a sealed box and I am getting good clean dependable power. I love the fact that it has an adjustable crossover which I have set at 100 hz right now and the subsonic filter is set low enough to let my sub perform at it's best unlike the Kicker I returned already. Plus for 500 watts rms it is a small compact amplifer. Good dependable Class D power from a well known and respected name for under $200, that's a pretty good deal to me. |
| April 23, 2008 | Great Subwoofer Amplifier | ||||||||||||
| Review written by Brandon from Scottsdale, AZ I helped install this amplifier along with an alpine head unit, four speakers and a 12" alpine type-r subwoofer in a ported sonicelectronix box and it sounds amazing! The subwoofer really comes alive being pushed by this amp. Just be sure that you order a subwoofer with a 2-ohm overall load at the amplifier in order to get maximum power out of it. |

| Review written by Gregory from Danbury, CT I have this running at a 2 Ohm load pushing my Boston G210SD without any clipping or overheating. The built in bass boost at 50Hz will add additional low end rumble. Paired with the correct subs this will do the job, just fine. |
