alpine Beta Digital 100

Price Paid:  $230.00 from Crutchfield

Summary:
This is a really nice looking amp. Sound quality is very good as well, and power is right with it''s claims. Controls are easy to get to, and again, it is very nice looking. The big problem I have with it is the lack of highlevel inputs and the lack of a crossover. I installed the amp in my sister''s Sunfire using the stock cd player. So I had to buy an external line driver / crossover to make it work. Other than that there is nothing wrong with this amp. It pushes her single Infinity Perfect very well, and has lasted over a year now with no lose in performance or any strange quirks showing up. I also installed an identical setup in a nearly identical car (2002 Sunfire vs my sister''s 2001). Same results.

Strengths:
Looks great Good sound quality Easy to use controls Plug in wiring is nice if you need to remove the amp Doesn''t fall short of claimed wattage Did I mention it looks good?

Weaknesses:
Needs an external crossover for subs Needs a line driver if using in a stock vehicle
