I can't say it would be completely waterproof but it comes with rubber boot type thing that goes over the ends of the amp to protect it from water but I'm not sure how much they will help I mounted in the little side compartment where my tool kit goes it fit well an is out of weather just incase

It is, but 1) like Adam said you should buy separate sub speaker wire 2) make sure that those big round terminals will fit on your amp. Mine needed the small spade terminals. Not a big deal, but didn't notice until I had my car apart. 2 Long walks later and it sounds great.

Oops, I forgot to add that the unit is sturdy and definitely waterproof. You won't be disappointed:)

No. Its not waterproof. You can see a black speaker below the grill and nothing in between. Brgds

Yes the speakers are water proof. The controller is water resistant. I sealed the seams of the controller and its perfect

This amp is clearly intended for indoor use. However, if it is shielded from rain, in moderate temperatures without too much humidity it should be okay. You may void the warranty if it fails due to exposure to the elements. You are taking a risk by putting it outdoors, but it's not that expensive.

Our speakers were installed in a cooler and run off of a marine battery. We use it when we go canoeing. Our canoe was flipped and the cooler was floating down the river still playing music. They still work even after that. We have not had any problems. So in my opinion YES they are water proof!

I don't think it is waterproof but I have used both parts of the unit outside with no problems.

The unit should be waterproof. For more accuracy please call 800-835-5011 and inquire about item DPP400W-0-8.

There is an on board amplifier. We installed one of these on my friend's boat and it turned out quite nice!

I think you'll definitely be able to hear the speakers even on a highway. It is fairly compact, the amp is very small. The only thing you'll have to think about is finding a waterproof enclosure for everything. They are marine speakers but I think that mostly protects them from splashing, not submersion. So I think the best you can protect them from rain fall the better.

I am not sure if the unit is waterproof, I am guessing it has some water resistance built in but I am guessing if it was they would say it on the packaging.

No, but not bad for a non-powered sub. Then again, if you are concerned enough about a powered sub you shouldn't buy an all in one system.

The speakers are water proof and the ease of use if amazing as well as the sound!! This is truly a fantastic unit for a motorcycle.

Nope. External amps or powered speakers are required. ..as is the willingness to work with unreliable gear.

No... but you might be able to buy/build a waterproof enclosure for it. Otherwise check out the SWR-M100 if you want to stick with Alpine - it's the only marine sub I know of that Alpine makes.

Yes, when properly installed it has proven to be completely water proof both when providing power to an accessory or when closed and not in use. This is an outstanding product as far as I'm concerned.
