Alpine MRV-F300 4-Channel Amplifier + MRVM500 Monoblock Amplifier

Really good

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!!

Alpine MRV-M500

My buddy had 1 of these running to pioneer 10s and it sound great Hit pretty hard great amp over all.Probably does a little more then rated 550/600 maybe.Very clean looking amp sturdy feeling and great clean sound

The perfect amp for my needs!

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.

Big power with little space

Not a bad little amp. I run 2 kenwood 12's @ 2 ohm with this amp and I love every minute of it. I am sometimes tempted to turn the gain down but it runs so clean I never do.

Beautiful

I just bought this amp, I upgraded from a power acoustic 870 watt 4 channel, and its powering 2 12 inch audiobahns, and it's amazing! It is definitely worth the money. I would recommend this to anyone

Great sound, great value

I was struggling with amp choice for my Mini Cooper sound system upgrade. So many choices and nearly impossible to know how they sound like without install that amp into YOUR car to drive the speakers YOU have. So this review is based on R56 Mini Cooper with JL Audio C2-600 components and C2-690CX.

Installation of Alpine MRV-F300 was a breeze due to its well designed interface and physical size. I mounted it vertically behind side panel onto a 1/4" MDF in truck area and still able to access to all the control on the side. Owner's manual was well designed and can be easily download onto iPad to use as reference. All connectors feels solid once cables are in.

Now come to the sound. I was blown away when I first turn it on. For $200 it was clean and surprisingly warmish with great detail. No significant flaw and nothing harsh on high/mid, vocal is balanced with good stage image (I have 'sit' right in the middle between front seats), bass on another hand having been coloured, which made Bass sound massive, cello sound like bass before I had to readjust the crossover/gain for both front and back. This could be the speakers too. Since I'm using speaker level input so I set front gain to just below 9'o clock position, rear 6x9s gets minim gain. Front channel on full range and rear has low pass with crossover set to 80hz. This allows me to get well balanced full range without overwhelming bass.

I'm very happy with my choice, only thing I wish better is bass for control and less colouring, but this maybe the deal with most car amps on the market. I'm an audiophile when it comes to home stereo, this entire upgrade to my Mini Cooper sound system (speakers, amp and sound deadening) is cheaper then an interconnect cable I use on the phono preamp, but I can now listen to it for hours and enjoy.

Great Amp

Powerful small amp. I brought this amp to pair with a 10" Sundown Audio woofer in a 2012 Fors Mustang and it sounds great.

Finally replaced my m500 after 7 years of 500rms. These things are durable, dependable little beasts and underrated. Excellent value.
