2002 / Alpine MRP-F356
Strength:
- boosts a simple setup in a brilliant way - adds a lot of quality to the sound - compact size - ridiculously low price ($150 for a new item) - a separate subwoofer channel (if you need it) - compact size
Weakness:
- none noticed so far This is the first ever amplifier that I have installed in my car, so there''ll be no comparisons from me. I bought tiss amp to complement my modest system consisting of: a Clarion DRX 6675-Rz head unit, a pair of 6 1/2" Infinity Reference 655 speakers at the front and a pair of 5 1/4" Infinity 52.1 kappa at the rear end. I have heard the car play with and without the amp, and I don''t regret a single dollar I spent on the amp. The sound got clearer, deeper and more intensive at the same volume levels. I simply love the way my system plays now. Similar Products Used: none as of now |

Strength:
Didn't cost me anything! As far as I'm concerned this is the only good thing about this amp.
Weakness:
Sub channel is worthless. Not enough adjustablility. Just barely better than stock. This amp was part of the system in the used '00 Integra Type R I just bought. The head unit is a cheap Pioneer, front & rear speakers are factory, and the subs are two JL 10"s in a sealed box (not sure which model of JL--probably the cheapest ones since the previous owner skimped on the rest of the system). At least one of the factory speakers was blown when I got the car which is probably from the amp letting too much bass through the built-in crossover. The subs could barely be heard--I mean I don't know how to explain it, I would just have to let you hear it--It simply sucks. On most regular music you couldn't even tell the subs were on unless you REALLY listened--not just my opinion, everybody who has heard this setup has said the same thing. So I ripped it all out of the car and am taking to a pawn shop ASAP. Save your money and buy something worthwile. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Inexpensive and with 5 channels can power entire system.
Weakness:
For the price can't complain. The sub channel was rated at 180 max. Decided to see how hard it would push. Right now the sub channel is running at 2 ohms to 2 12" Kenwood tornado subs in a Obcon dual bandpass box and it pretty much slams. The other four channels are running the front and rear speakers. System sounds pretty good considering one tiny amp is powering the whole thing. Most people I talked to didn't think it had enough power to run 2 12" but it's pretty good. For the price I think you can't go wrong. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
Low, low cost. Fairly powerful. More than loud enough to fill up my reg. cab Chevy p/u.
Weakness:
Non-adjustable crossovers for front & rear channels. The amp sends too much bass to the Blaupunkt 4x6's that fit in the stock locations on my truck and now two are blown. Now, I'm looking for a 4 channel amp with adjustable crossover to power the 4x6's and some 6x9's to bridge across the front and rear channels of the alpine. Overall, for the price I can't complain, but now I find myself having to spend more money for another amp to do the job I wanted this one to do. Plus, I'm replacing blown speakers and looking for some 6x9's so I can get some use out of the Flex5. Do not try to use this amp to push small speakers without some kind of crossover or bass blockers. You won't be happy with the results. Similar Products Used: None |

Strength:
-Reasonable price
Weakness:
-no overwhelming power Although it isn't a powerhouse, it is an upgrade from a stock system. The fifth sub channel is a great idea. I run Clarion 5.25" components from the four channels bridged down to two, and an 8" sub in a box from the fifth. The amp fits nicely under a seat, and provides plenty of sound to fill a pick-up cab and then some. I'd recommend it to the average person who wants a little more than stock power, with enough channels to complete a basic system. It definitely won't satisfy the hard core audio systems though.
