I've seen lots of good reviews for the Alpine on many car audio sites. The JL is twice the price and is probably a better piece overall...but it may be overkill for my needs. I'm not going to be driving it that hard. Anyone have experience with this amp in their X?
I have that exact Alpine MRP-M350 amp driving a JL Audio 10W3v2 sub in my X for a little over a year now. No problem at all whatsoever. Heck...the amp barely gets warm...even after 6 straight hours of usage! But then again, I don't really push it that hard...so it's good enough for my application. The only complain I have with the MRP-M350 is the lack of a remote control for bass adjustment. Other than that, I love the little sucker
