Our Product Research Team
At Crutchfield, you'll get detailed, accurate information that's hard to find elsewhere.
That's because we have our own in-house Product Research team — they open the box,
verify contents, check the owner's manual, and record dimensions, features and specs.
We stay on top of new products and technologies to help people make informed choices.

Features
Power Supply: The MRP-F240
amplifier's power supply uses MOSFETs to convert DC battery voltage to the
higher DC voltages needed for high power. It supplies positive and negative
voltages around 0V, rather than around 6V as with conventional single-polarity
power supplies. The result is higher power levels and a dynamic range wider by
as much as 10dB.
Gain Controls: This amp has
independent front and rear channel gain controls.
Crossovers: Both front and rear
channels have independently selectable high-pass and low-pass fixed 80 Hz
crossovers with a slope of 18dB/octave.
Subsonic Filter: This amp
utilizes a 15Hz subsonic filter to eliminate super low frequencies that can rob
power and damage speakers. The subsonic filter operates only for the rear
channels, and is engaged when the rear channel crossover is set to
"low-pass" operation.
Bass EQ: The Bass EQ circuit
provides a boost of 0-12dB at 50 Hz for the rear channels only. The Bass EQ does not function when the amp's rear-channel crossover is set to "high-pass" operation.
Inputs: The amplifier offers
both line-level and speaker level inputs for 4 channels. The supplied speaker-level
input harness allows you to connect this amplifier to a receiver without preamp
outputs, either aftermarket or factory.
Line Outputs: This amplifier
has a pair of non-fading stereo RCA line outputs. You can use these outputs to
daisy-chain another amplifier without having to run additional signal cables
from the receiver.
RCA Cover: The amp comes with a
plastic cover that protects and insulates the RCA connections. Two supplied
machine screws attach the cover to the amplifier. Note: The cover adds
about 1-1/4" to the width of the amplifier when installed.
