Kade Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 What's the difference between the Alpine PDX, MRV and MRX series? MRV entry lvl, PDX pro grade? PDX looks like it has some magic stuff inside. Sexy amp. Any experience with either 3 series of amps? 2009 Dodge Caliber SXT (Silver) Deck: Pioneer X3600BHS Amps: RF P1000X5 Front: RF P16-S Rear: RF P1694 Subs: 1 RF P3D2-10 Cabling: Stinger 6 channel RCA, RF 4gauge kit, SkyHighCarAudio 16gauge speaker wire.

Smoove Posted June 27, 2013 Report Share Posted June 27, 2013 I ran several MRV amps in the 90's. They all worked great. 2 Team Fi 15's v1 2 DD M5's 970amps of Alt 6th order blowthroughThe truck Blowthrough build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/155555-smooves-1996-chevy-ext-cab-c1500-slow-build/The 350z build : http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/170694-smooves-2003-nissan-350z/ My FB page https://www.facebook.com/pages/Smooves-Car-Audio-and-performance/719746144805343 Team Fi Audio http://www.ficaraudio.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notorious97200 Posted June 28, 2013 Report Share Posted June 28, 2013 pdx is class DMRV : class AB The first pdx amps can be found for cheap. I bought one some years ago for $250(about) on an ebay store. Was happy with my 4 x 100: Small, but get really hot externally. black BMW X1 2.0 l 192 hp OEM head unit, Amplifiers : Audison AP 8.9 amp with integrated DSP and Ampere Audio 1200. Focal ES 100 K in front doors, and Dayton RS 180 for midbass under the front seats. 2 SSA DEMONS 10" subs, in a 2.6 ft3 ported box. SecondSkin Damplifier on front doors, and Luxury Liner Pro for the cargo area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BoomZoom808 Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 The PDX v2 I have is tiny, has awesome quick release terminals, doesn't get too hot and has some really nice protection built in to address voltage drop but over all is very efficient and sounds very nice. I scored a deal on mine used locally they are pricey new IMO. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kade Posted June 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 So, for the average joe, the MRV and MRX series should be fine for me? PDX has a lot of features I don't think I'd use. 2009 Dodge Caliber SXT (Silver) Deck: Pioneer X3600BHS Amps: RF P1000X5 Front: RF P16-S Rear: RF P1694 Subs: 1 RF P3D2-10 Cabling: Stinger 6 channel RCA, RF 4gauge kit, SkyHighCarAudio 16gauge speaker wire.

Markous Posted June 29, 2013 Report Share Posted June 29, 2013 Not impressed with the fact that the PDX only have a switchable 15 and 30hz subsonic filter and not variable like the MRX. I do like the one sided layout of the PDX's and the quick connectors though.

I have my MRX-M55 set just over 25hz.

BoomZoom808 Posted July 2, 2013 Report Share Posted July 2, 2013 I'd have to agree one place the PDX is lacking is the X-over section you get for the price. Its pretty basic. 2010 Mazda 3s 2.5L Pioneer DEH-X9600BHS Knu OFC 1/0 SS Platinum AGM / XS Power XP750 Alpine PDX F-4 / Morel Maximo 5 + Coax 5 IA 10.1 / SSA XCON 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
