Alpine MRV-M1200 V-Power Mono Amplifier

Alpine MRV-M1200 V-Power Amplifiers

The MRV-M1200 further elevates V-Power's reputation of reliability and performance with an enormous output of 1200W RMS @ 2Ohm. Its fourth generation all digital-design enables high efficiency and extreme power to drive hard hitting bass without distortion. Priced at $599 it provides an amazing dollar per watt ratio.

Its Class-D technology provides continuous, clean power and superior sound quality to the subwoofer so you can enjoy powerful bass, even during extreme power demands. Moreover, dual feedback modulation technology previously found only in the PDX and X-Power amplifiers is now integrated into V-Power mono amplifiers. This means that the audio signal is analysed, compared, and corrected twice dynamically as the signal is processed through the amplifier. The result is the widest frequency response, higher damping factor and lowest noise in its class.

With the enclosed RUX-KNOB bass knob you have full control for remote on-the-fly bass adjustments, without adjusting the amplifier itself. Additionally, you have the ability to control up to 10 V-Power mono amps using just this one RUX-KNOB with simple telephone jack adapters. What's more is the advanced non shut-down performance design. Thanks to the Thermal Management processor, it takes longer for protection mode to kick in, and a gradual gain down is used so that there is no abrupt interruptions in playback. Plus, the heat sink capacity is 30% larger in volume than its predecessor, keeping the amplifier from getting too hot even in high power demand.
