my dad has a pretty old alpine amp in his explorer that he said i can have. it cost him around $700 in the early 1990's. on the top of the amp it says Alpine 6/5/4/3 Channel Power Amplifier 3566. does anyone know anything about this amp? with todays updated technology, should i just get a decent $200 amp? any help is appreciated.

Yeah I have friends who have said good things about older alpine amps. As runriot said, the tech hasn't really changed, and they built the old amps (both car and normal) real tough - I use a 20 year old $80 Rotel amp with my sound system in my room and it kicks ass, much nicer than a friends new $400 Denon.
But as I said, I have no hands on experience with them so good luck This post has been edited by kamixZR: Jun 26, 2003 - 9:01 AM |
