WANTED: Amplifier - BMW 3-Series (E90 E92) Forum

afsar · 09-20-2012, 06:41 AM

I sold my PDX-5 last month, irony is now I need one. Basically I am looking for 4-5 channel class D amp, order of preference is JL HD 5 (if can be sourced within my budget), PDX-5, PDX-4.150, PDX-4.100.

Let me know if some has a spare one.

Also check out the new Alpine PDX-V9

I'm in the same boat as OP lol.

afsar · 09-20-2012, 09:11 AM

It is exactly the same as JL HD 5 mob.

Very impressive.

Someone offering me on ebay brand new PDX 5 for £170, worth it? PDX 5 can take care of rear 2 channel, center one channel and in future boot sub box too, seems a good choice.

I heard PDX 5 was a nuisance on noise issues... but don't hold me to it.

afsar · 09-20-2012, 10:44 AM

Yes my old pdx 5 was, but hoping for this new one to be good. Also I am going to using shielded cable throughout for low level signal so it should help a lot.

Even after all these efforts if there are still noises then I have to live with that as there aren't any other solution in the similar budget.

I've got an alpine amp if that is any good?

(One u get as part of the alpine retrofit kit)

afsar · 10-02-2012, 05:24 PM

No alpine retrofit kit won't work. Don't know full details though.
