Exceptional power and sound quality, Alpine PDX-M12 ultra-compact Mono Power Density amplifier.

PDX-M12 Alpine PDX Series mono reference amplifier completely re-engineered for outstanding performance, sound quality and maximum reliability.

The PDX-M12 is made to satisfy sound quality enthusiasts in the car, all in a format.

The exceptional frequency response of the PDX-M12, one of the best available for products in this category, is comparable to professional use products. 5Hz-100kHz for 4ch, 5Hz-400Hz for Mono (+0,-3dB)

Alpine's PDX series of Class-D amplifiers is able to reproduce the entire range of audio frequencies. The PDX-M12 has excellent reproduction of high frequencies.

THD is actually better at high frequencies, with a consequent clean and clear signal, where the ear is more sensitive to distortions. - <0.005% THD + N @ 1W, <0.05% THD + N @ rated power.

Signal Noise
These amplifiers have an S/N ratio up to 95dB S/N @ 1W, 122dB S/N at rated power while maintaining clean and clear sound. Forget unwanted background noise or static. PDX amplifiers deliver crystal clear sound for every musical track played.

Damping Factor
With ultra-low output impedance, the PDX have ultra-precise low bass control for unprecedented sound quality. The ratings are > 1000 for Mono and > 500 for 4 channels.
Extreme Output Power

Enhanced Power Supply
The new PDX power supply section has been refined to ensure low distortion and noise. system efficiency ~80% (power supply is rated at >90%, output stage is rated >90%).

Power Management Processor
Alpine PDX amplifiers incorporate the new Power Management circuit. The Power Management Processor controls all aspects of amplifier performance, monitoring voltage, temperature and output to ensure uninterrupted power production for non-stop listening.

If the amplifier becomes too hot, the thermal protection circuit gradually decreases output power until it cools down. Once the temperature has returned to normal, power automatically increases to the previous level. If the circuit detects a low battery condition, it will progressively decrease output power, when the voltage returns to normal power will be restored. This seamless design allows non-stop enjoyment without hiccup or drop-out.

Stable at Low Impedances
These amplifiers are stable at low impedances and are capable of their rated power at 2-4 ohm for all models. This allows high flexibility with multiple speakers and subwoofers and is adjusted automatically.

Birth Certificate, Guaranteed!
Every PDX amplifier comes with its own birth certificate. PDX amplifiers are tested and documented to demonstrate their actual output power.
Application Flexibility

Rack Mounting System
The new PDX series amplifiers are 20% thinner than previous models, with only 2" thickness. The new stacking system of the finals allows you to have no gaps between amplifiers and thus not waste space in the trunk. The cooling system was also designed with multiple amplifiers in mind.

Speaker Terminals
The terminals for the speakers allow you to use 10 mm² cables and have unique design, for plugging in or simply disconnecting speakers without the possibility of error.

Power Connector
The new removable power connector has very low resistance and accepts 25 mm² cables, to always guarantee the necessary power for amplification and to simplify installation.

A Personal Touch
The trim ring of the amplifiers is removable easily, so you can personalize it. Authorized Alpine installers will be able to offer you modifications to personalize the aesthetics to your taste.

RGsound is officially recognized by Alpine as"Excellent Partner".
