Also, any idea on what its worth?

 

Brand new from a store your looking at probaly 200- 250. What do you want to push front, rears, and sub all in 1? Or just fronts and sub? And whats your budget?

 

Im looking for the cheapest stuff that I can use that will sound decent. Is that amp powerful enough to power fronts rears and sub or would it be better to just go with fronts and sub? (I got the amp from someone who owed me money, so I want to use it if its any good)

 

That will be a great amp
I have an MRV F405 (the same only bigger) and a 1005 (same series, looks the same) and they are brilliant.

 

Yeah I've got an MRV F340...I love it. Great series of amps

 

I would only use that amp to run the front a rears only and get a mono amp for the subs.

 

Exactly, use it for running components, I have my 1005 running a sub.

I've got an MRV-F340 bi-amped to run my type x front components and its great. i have it mounted under the drivers seat and it barely even gets warm to the touch.

 

That reminds me, that series of amps run really hot.
I.E you won't be able to touch it and it might melt your floor mats if you put it too close. Don't let that put you off though, mine have been in for over 2 years with no problems.

 

I've never heard the type x's how are they? how much power are you giving them?

Mine's never gotten very hot at all. But then again I'm not pushing it all that hard. Only running a 4ohm load.

 

My F405 has been running bridged but it still doesn't get as hot as my 1005 running stereo

well i haven't completely finished my installation of them so right now they're running free air where i'm going to build the kicks. they do sound very nice actually, great tonal balance, the highs are clear without being overpowering. My only complaint i have about them is they're a little lacking on the midbass but that could also change with a sealed enclosure.

as far as power, i'm running them bi-amped off my MRV-F340 which is 65 X 4 but i have the gains set a little lower for the tweeter.
