It a perfect product for a car audio setup. But beware it will bring tears to ur eyes while tunning it and after listing to it if tuned properly......

U will be needing to upgrade ur amp also for the woofer to put out its best .......

Ya man the 605 is a small amp when compared to type -x

http://www.alpine-usa.com/en/product...odel=SWX-1242D
http://www.alpine-usa.com/en/product...model=MRD-M605

mrd 605
RMS Power (at 14.4V,20Hz-200Hz)
Per channel into 4 ohms : 400W x 1
Per channel into 2 ohms : 600W x 1
(I could not find the 12 volt rating so cannot comment on that)

so u can see that the amp max is 600 watts rms only and the sub will be running at 600 watts only but the sub is rated 1000 watts rated. So u will be using 60 % of it the rest 40 % will be left away.......

RMS Power at 12V, 20Hz-200Hz

Per channel into 2 ohms : 400W x 1
Per channel into 4 ohms : 250W x 1

BTW LBM, somebody told me that on car-start mode u get 14.4V (+/-) so, ratings @ 14.4V are kinda accurate unless u intend to run ur system on a shut-engine mode (12V). wat do u think?

My car wont accept anything bigger than that I think. I'm speaking of space constraints here.
Any ALPINE monoblock amp comes in same size but more power packed?

You're gladly welcome to : http://www.team-bhp.com/forum/car-en...fo-needed.html

I cant find place to fit in a bigger amp.

my PA275 would be the smallest amp @ 260W@ 4ohm, no?

But what about the POWER???? Something above 1000W RMS???

Zak you can also consider the new Alpine PDX 1.1000 amp. A bit expensive at $800, it has a really small footprint but can put out good power (according to their specs).

We arent big fans of the current Alpine amps though. Look at the S/N ratio of their current amps vis-a-vis their earlier ones. Your 605 has a 65dB S/N ratio. Thats not too good. The PDX fares better at 80dB, but even that isnt spectacular by any standards...

If you really want better bass performance, try some better spec'ed amps. Tool's Alpine 1001 is a great mono amp. Clean, Powerful and Quick. See if you can get yourself one of those. But its not a small amp by any standards...

In a "shut-engine" mode you WILL NOT get 12 Volts ... Chances are you will get around 11V or lesser (due to the connected load)

Other than that what exactly is your question?
