Great combo with the kickers 10 speaker. Great purchase for price and Watts

This works for my kicker speakers. I do with it came with a remote

Amps perform as you would expect from Alpine. Clear sound and all the power I need.

My daughter received this as a gift and she loves it!

Great amp really sounds good paired with the 10” sub

This amp is a must buy. You can’t go wrong with this alpine.

Good power for 12” sub woofer. Alpine is a good brand

Lots of thump for your dollar. Excellent price. Easily blew up a jl audio 10w3. Nlew a hole threw the outer edge of sub

Amp works very well and has good clear sound. Much better than some of the other low cost amps I have purchased

It's a good amp for a single sub but doesn't do the job for two 12s

My boyfriend loves this product. He says it works great!

Got this to run factory 8” sub I replaced and it’s ok but that’s about it doesn’t pound and can barely hear it outside the suv bought a Rockville bazooka style powered sub for a third the price of amp and speaker should have bought that first

A little bit too weak for what I was wanting, good quality

amp works great just what I needed for finishing touch.

Good power but gets hot fast. Using it to push a 600 rms sub

I can tell you that for being so small this amp outs out a lot of power. I had it hooked up to an Alpine type s in an enclosed box and it sounded beautiful and plenty loud. This amp could also push to Rockford p1's or a single p2 sub depending on how much space you have obviously 2 p1's would be a bit louder but obviously take up more space. I wanted more thump so I ended up buying the Soundstream Turrantula and powered it with a kicker 1200.1 and it shakes the whole truck. If all you want is clear amazing low end bass for your music to have a full soundstage then this is it. If you want a loud rattling mess like I do look elsewhere.

The amp is great I just paid to have it and the subs installed but it did not get done after leaving my car there for 2 1/2 days and got no money back for the installation

Big improvement on the bass side small unit puts out a big punch

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. I have trusted Alpine products for many years and by far I am very impressed.

I ordered this amp as an open box item to save a few dollars. Thankfully, the amp worked and was in decent condition. Unfortunately, it showed signs of being mounted in a vehicle and being used, not just opened and returned. This wasn't a huge deal, but the worst thing about it was horrendous packaging. Someone literally put the amp in its factory box inside a much larger box, taped it shut and sent it off. No packing peanuts. No bubble wrap. Nothing. Just the amp in its original packaging bouncing around inside a big cardboard box. Fortunately the original packing inside the original box kept the amp safe. Thanks Alpine! I won't order from Best Buy again after this with fear my items will arrive with damage. The amp itself? Great! Best Buy? Not great.
