Free amp

A buddy of mine gave me an amp he wasnt using. It is an Alpine MRV-F250 4 channel.

Will this be good to push my 10" Pioneer sub TS-SW2501S4 , I dont have other speakers hooked up at the moment so it will be strictly for the sub.

PLEASE ADVISE ME.. I will be hooking everything up this week.

Specs:

- RMS Continuous Power output (@ 12.0V 20 Hz to 20 kHz)

25 watts x 4 @ 4 ohms, 0.08% THD
35 watts x 4 @ 2 ohms, 0.3% THD
70 watts bridged into 4 ohms, 0.3% THD

- Dynamic Power (a 14.4V, 20 Hz to 20 kHz)

40 watts x 4 @ 4 ohms, 0.08% THD
50 watts x 4 @ 2 ohms, 0.3% THD
100 watts bridged into 4 ohms, 0.3% THD




It looks like your sub is 300 watts RMS.

IMO I'm not sure you will happy with the sub with only 70-100 watts.

That amp would be good if you wanted to use it for door speakers.

X2.......if those specs are correct that amp is not near enough to power your sub. It would be ok for door speakers but I would even prefer more power there.
