Usable

The following review is for BAK42BK, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

The wiring has done me right so far but the only thing I don't like is the speaker wires. You have to carefully split it so the wire doesn't show. Other than that minor thing everything was great and a great value!

Really good

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Have this amp connected to my Dodge factory head unit using high level output connected to 2- 12inch pioneer champion series at 300 RMS 4ohm. unbelievable quality and sound. Once you tune your subwoofer and amp to specs you wil have no problem. more that enough bass needed, Great amp!!

The perfect amp for my needs!

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This little amp puts out just the right amount of power for my system. I mounted it behind an internal side panel so that it would be out of sight, and it fit perfectly. I haven't had any problems with it what so ever, and it really brought good sounding base to my sub woofer. I would definitely recommend this amp to my friends.

I run 2 12inch audiobahn exursions on this amp and it pushes them very well. The size is perfect not to big and fits right unerneath the seat or small space. The best part is it stays pretty cool even after running most the day.

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Wow! This replaced a 13 yr old pioneer amp (that actually sounded really good) that was rated at only 50w less power than the M500. BUT it seems like this Alpine has twice the power! Much fuller sounding low end and kicks my JL 12w0 hard! Instant smiles. I am pleased, to say the least. Get one!

Crazy the Size vs the Power

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

This mrv m 500 on a alpine type r can get so loud that my nose vibrates and causes me to sneeze. Thats no lie. and on top of that its cool to touch after a long session of high volume and what not. When looking at the size of it, it looks like a joke, but it performs as good at amps that are 10 times the size. couldnt be more happier with the purchase.

Ok value

The following review is for BAK42BK, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Good product , but not enough speaker wire to wire two front door speakers in a scion xb. I guess it would have been enough if I had run one of them with the power wire instead of running on the other side of car, but everybody knows that's a bad idea due to engine noise. You would think they would take that into consideration. Also not a big fan of the square and round speaker wire very hard to separate and strip without exposing bare wire.

I have this amp hooked up to a 12" Alpine sub in a sealed box in my 2011 Camaro. The bass is clean, solid and will shake your brain if you want it to. From rock to rap and everything in between.

Hello

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Good Evening,
This alpine amplifier puts out some serious bass at 530* watts RMS. MY Rockford Fosgate subwoofer handles the power without issues.

I have a kicker 1200 and at 600 watt @ 4 ohms, (never tried the 1200 watt at 2 ohms option) I hear tremendous more clarity in my music overall without sacrificing ANY bass. On my Kicker I'm running a single NVX 15" which I love.

I have a compact so I had to choose a lower watt setup. I wanna try a rockford fosgate and jl audio amp sometime. But overall if I had to choose a good amp I would go with kicker because my music sounded way better.

Sincerely Yours,
Frank

The following review is for BAK42BK, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Bought this kit for my 650 watt rms amp. Not true awg 4 guage, but close.jacket is pretty thick.all wires flexible. Reached under the back seat of my 2008 silverado crew cab. But not a whole lot of slack if your going to a trunk. Fuse is ok... ive seen better and worse. Bottom line, if your on a budget and running 800 rms or under, this will work fine.

Reliable, Powerful, Compact

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

I have had the Alpine MRV-500 for over 5 years now, never replaced it. I have typically used it in 4ohms. From one car to another, blowing up a couple subwoofers in the process I am impressed with the quality. I do have an audio control epicenter hooked up to it and it makes bass even more crisp.
I've had mostly kicker subs ranging from 300 to 100watts. I've also used Skar Audio 1,200 watt, Infinity 1000 watt, Precision Power 800 watt. They worked very well in a vented box. I would go on a limb and assume it was a 1.75 cu ft but not 100% sure. Since a very young age I have trusted Alpine products and by far I am very impressed.

Great wires!!

The following review is for BAK42BK, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

After reading reviews and most importantly watching the video Sonic posted with this product, I decided to give it a shot for my Cerwin Vega VPAS-12. The wires are exactly as described, true 4 gauge, not all insulation like the other brands. The fuse block is solid and easy to set up. I was worried it may not fit the VPAS connectors since they mention 8 gauge, but it works and it is holding in no problem.

The only thing I did change was the actual battery and ground terminals, they seemed weak, so i chose something stronger and all is well.

Thanks again Sonic!!

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

The installation for this was easy. I purchased the ILX-W650 Alpine Head unit and paired that with SBV-10-WRA Subwoofer. The sub is plugged into the Amp, the Amp wiring to the Battery, Ground, RCA to the Headunit - painless.

Adjusting settings on the Amp were straightforward. The sleek design allows me to place this under my driver's seat without drawing attention to it.

Little amp really packs a punch!

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

Alpine packed a lot of power into this little package. I'm just running one 10" woofer in my wife's Jeep, to add a little bass to her system. And I have to keep the settings pretty low due to the amount of power this thing produces. Not to mention it's compact size that allows it to fit nicely in areas with very limited space. I also like that it allows you to simply add an Alpine "remote bass knob" ! Now she can adjust her bass with 1 simple turn of a knob on the dash. Anyway, for anyone looking for a great little amp (that packs a great punch), I'd HIGHLY consider purchasing this Alpine MRV-M500. And it won't break your bank either, as it's very reasonably priced! GREAT BANG FOR YOUR BUCK! (no pun intended).

I have always loved Alpine products. Reasonable prices especially on sale and extremely reliable. This amp is a perfect match for the subs by Alpine that I’m using them for. I recommend this amp to anyone that wants a good amp at a fair price to drive 2 subs that need approximately 250 watts each at 2 ohms.

Nice little amp!

The following review is for MRV-M500, which is a part of the bundle you are viewing.

For the size/power/price combo of this amp, how can you go wrong?!
It’s fairly clean sound, doesn’t get 1000 degrees, has plenty of power, and fits in smaller places like under seats. Don’t get me wrong, it’s not a premium monster amp, so don’t go thinking you’re going to put this on a pair of 500w 12’s unless you’re just wanting to blow something up. I’ve got this on a JL 10TW1 and it sounds phenomenal.
Another win from alpine on the budget line.

This little unit does the job. I was pushing a Rockford Fosgate R2D4 10. in a ported box. Unfortunately, the amp gave out on me. The solid Blue square started blinking blue. I looked in the troubleshooting and there was no indication of the blue blinking light. I unplugged and re-plugged the 12+, GRND, REM. Then the blue went to red. I swapped out the Alpine amp with another amp laying around (DX 500.1) and everything works well.
