LSHD1.COM might have great prices but they are the slowest company to ship. After 3 weeks I finally received the 2nd grill. No lids but I have both grills now.
Sorry a little off topic but I am installing the Alpine PDX-V9 in my Jeep this Sat. What were you dissatisfied with? All reviews I have read were good.

  • compared to the SS PN4.520D, the PDX wasn't capable of driving the Polk MM651 to the same extent. I was able to crank the headunit up to full volume and adjust gains up to .25v and still wasn't driving the speakers to a distortion level. I can't get anywhere near 2:00 position at 3/4 volume on the SS before the Polks were being over-driven.
  • The 500w x 1 sub channel i found lacked power in a major way. It was barely able to drive the TS-D6902R Pioneer 6x9s unless I used the bass-boost **** (RUX) and then it went to distortion really quick.

No experience with the 'new style' Alpine amps,...but both of my PDX 4.150's are incredible producers of power........
