Good deal?

Hi guys,

while looking for an amp to power my sub, a friend of mine mentioned he has an Alpine PDX M6 in storage. It looks to be in very nice condition but have yet to test it. He said he'd let me have it for $250. Is that a fair price, good price? Is there a way to test the amp short of installing it?

Thanks

Pic is not the actual amp.

Absolutely correct, it puts out 600rms. That's more than I need to run a 450rms SI BM mkV. I'm looking for a quality amp that puts out clean power in that range. Just wondering what the going price is for one of these units?

2000rms? Which amp would that be?

idk about clean vs dirty power. all I know is rated certified power and that's what this amp does. but I'll let everyone else take it from here. if you wanna lay $250 for 600rms when you can have 2000 have at it.

Well, I looked at several of those listings too. A lot of times listed stuff doesn't correspond to sold stuff, that's why I asked here. I didn't mean for you to do my homework, my apologies for making it seem that way. But thank you nonetheless.
 
Seems like a decent price for the Alpine. As far as pretesting your amplifier, I never did. Wire it up and turn on the stereo!!!! You could look on youtube for videos of folks testing them.
 
That is half the new price, which is a decent discount imo. But demand for that amp has to be low. Id offer $200. The SPL crowd wont want it and people looking to spend more for perceived quality will be looking at amps from Zapco or JL.

It is an expensive amp for only 600 watts and there is probably no chance in hell that you will hear a difference between it and many other amps that make more watts per $. But for $200, I would go for it.
 
There is very little info on the Zapco budget ST line, but one video featured the ST-1350XMII and it came up short in just about every test. Can I post a Youtube link here? If not, feel free to remove it:

That leaves me with little confidence in the budget ST line.

Terrible amps. Lightyears away from other Zapco series.
