Age is probably the major difference; mrd-m1005 is in the current range, it replaced the m1001. The m1001 replaced the mrd-m1000. they are all v12 class d mono amps.

difference between the 2:

1001 is the older digital amp, maximum RMS @ 2ohms
1005 is the newer of the 2, as above. Neither are F#1, Alpine never made a F#1 sub amp...

register @ www.alpine.com.au for manual downloads thats way you can compare features on the 2 different models...

difference between the 2:

1005 is older, NOT 2ohms stable bridged
1001 is DIGITAL, has time alignment, and is 2 ohms stable, but NOT F#1...
I assume you're thinking of the mrv-1005, old v12 2 channel amp.
MRD-M1005 is the current class d mono amp...

I am setting up a sub in my civic. I just want some help with my amp choice.

I have already bought a:
Pioneer 10" Subwoofer Model TS-W254C 250watt RMS

I am now looking for a cheap but functional amp.
I am concidering a relatatively old alpine MRP-T406. Bridged into 4 ohms this puts out 120W and a max of 240W.

Will this do the job? I realise it isn't going to use the sub to its full potental.. Using a amp which will putout less than the RMS isn't going to damage the sub is it?

Thanks in advance

Always try to get a amp that have more power than the sub required, the more the better.

Remember the specs to look for when purchasing an amplifier. There is a sticky thread at the top of the audio section about it. :):)
