I dont ever make comments, but....you are excellant at describing and explaining the product, and i truly appreciate you doing it. I like your style. Clear and concise. I will be adding the ktp 445a to my alpine deck and new speakers!

Very good review bro... almost made the mistake of going with the ktp445A when I have a non alpine head

Just put in the 445u. Coming from someone who runs 100-200 watts per mod in my other vehicle. This thing has some good power. On stock mids/highs rn. Mclaren mids next week

Yeah it's more powerful than the Alpine radios. The one I had in my Jeep Liberty CRD was 45 Watts Peak not RMS. This is much more power. I'm putting a 445u in my Tacoma to power my kicker speakers with a powered sub too. I want a nice sounding system that isn't too over the top. I like the factory head unit and prefer not to have an aftermarket radio because people still like to steal those.

There’s a comment here that I can relate to. Retaining the factory subwoofer in an 04 Pilot. I had seen a video using the KTP-190U previously and was leaning that way. Having seen your video and answer about a stinger 2 channel or a Boss CE102, I’m having second thoughts about the Alpine-190U. I love my Pilot….but not enough to spend $$$$ on a new sub and amp. I’m planning on replacing the head unit with a JVC KW-56OBT. The question is, since you made the video and answered the post it’s been over three years. Is there something you would now recommend that’s newer? Truly appreciate your answer. Thanks in advance.

is the KTP-445A too weak for Alpine R- series speakers ?

The ktp445u is going in my KIA K5 in 2 weeks. I'll have a video up for review on Jan 6th. (date of install)

I only have a 10 amp fuse in my truck and I have an alpine head unit, I bought the one specific for the head unit and it’s plug and play but I feel like I need to run a power wire Atleast since it’s on a 10 amp fuse? But with saying that there is no hookup for a power wire, and I don’t wanna take it apart unless I know there is actually a power hookup in the amp.
@stereoking77784 жыл бұрын
If you are not blowing the fuse you should leave it alone.
@brandonkeithley74644 жыл бұрын
Stereo King I hooked it up and it has yet to blow one (20-30 mins of playing 2 times so far) so I should just leave it be?

Hello Sir, upgrading the head unit in my 03 Honda Pilot that has a factory sub. I'm leaning towards the KTP-190U (new off eBay) for the sub. You mention the two empty pins and an 8v line driver. What else exactly do I need to buy to allow this to work with my new head unit and factory sub? (I know this is an older post, figured I would try). V/r, John
@stereoking77784 жыл бұрын
If you are retaining your factory sub I wouldn't use the Alpine because the sub is four ohm and that amp it's power at one ohm. I would get a the small two channel stinger amp or even a boss ce102.
@JerkyTreat4 жыл бұрын
Stereo King, would it be okay to run the gains to the max, or just about max, on the KTP-445U feeding a set of Infinity Kappa 50.11cs (5 and 1/4) and Infinity Kappa 86cfx (6x8) from a factory headunit? Thanks for the information
@stereoking77784 жыл бұрын
I don't recommend it, you will sending distortion to your speakers for sure. Usually when using that amp my gains are not ever about half.

@@stereoking7778 Yeah, I tried it for a second and it sounded terrible. Tons of noise even when music wasn't playing.

Would the KTP-445U be a good option, to use with an old school Alpine (TDA-7559) and EQ (3342) ? The EQ has RCA inputs and outputs ?

It should work great as long you choose speakers with the power handling.

Have 2 Pyle 6" subwoofers and an Alpine unit. Will can the Alpine KTP-190U push them?
@stereoking77786 жыл бұрын
Not very well. I'm assuming each subwoofer is a 4-ohm load. At this impedance you'd be better off with an Alpine ktp-445u.

does the watt from an aftermarket radio stack with the watt from the 445u if you use the rca?

Someone has the 445a for $50 can it be used for my android head unit and splice into the wires ? Or should I get the 445u since its universal ? But 445u I would have to get that at regular price
@stereoking77785 жыл бұрын
I would recommend getting the 445u. I have used the 445a with other radio brands but it never seems to work out well. The 445u will allow you to adjust everything properly.

@@bornjamerican52 You're welcome. I use the 445A on my alpine CDE-193BT. Works great, just plug and play. You want to double check the compatibility list on their website/manual, but the 445A works with pretty much all Alpine stuff.
