After market amp.

Does anyone here use a mra-f350 amp by alpine? Reason I ask is that... I started to do my install and decided to take a look at the things I have bought so far. I have gotten speakers from diamond audio to replace the 4 stock speakers (two doors and 2 rear deck speakers), a 3sixty.2, and a 5.1 amp (mra-f350) by alpine. So I opened the box for the amplifier and damn! I just found out that it has no rca inputs!!! This amp is totally different from what I am use to. My set up was going to be from stock head unit, to stock amplifier, then to the 3sixty.2, to the alpine 5.1 amplifier, then to the speakers. Now it seems that my install is at a halt!!!!!! By looking at the amp it seems to me that this amp has to take it's signal directly from an after market head unit. So now unless someone has this amp and can tell me how to make this work or I will have to get rid of this amp and buy a different amp(s). If I purchase any other amp(s) for my install can anyone suggest which amp(s)????

The MRA-F350 is only made for Alpine head units and the Ai-Net connections.

The Alpine PDX series are very good amps

I put a 300-4 channel JL Audio amp under the driver's seat. Used a Navone LOC from the rear channel out of the stock amp. I'm not into 5.1 either and don't need the front/rear fader. I put Diamond Audio speakers in front and rear. 2 channel sub amp mounted to removable 10" sub box in the trunk.
