- 200 Watts x 1, at 2 ohms <= 1% THD+N
- 80 dBA Signal-to-Noise Ratio (Reference: 1 Watt Output)

Alpine 4 Channel Amp - (retail for $500 new)

- 150W RMS x 4 (2 ohm @ 14.4V)
- 100W RMS x 4 (4 ohm @ 14.4V)
- 300W RMS x 2(4 ohm @ 14.4V)

ALL FOR $120! In good condition and working well. At the moment i have a new Philips 4 channel 75W RMS x 4 amp (900W peak) which sounds good for it's value of course but the Alpine will definitely sound a lot better and powerful right? After all you can't go wrong with Alpine...

Alpine stuff is decent, they do have cheaper entry level stuff though.

Sound like good prices depending on age.

Your speakers may hold you back if they are not matched well to the amps though.

I've got JBL's in the back and they've never let me down. Sound unreal and so clear. And Soundstream splits in the front (Rubicon I believe) set me back about $500 a couple years ago. So the speakers are obviously not Focals but they do sound good hooked up to an amp and I'm sure a better quality amp like Alpine may top it off.

That first model number is the Alpine model number, not the Pioneer model number. The Pioneer power ratings are also backwards... It does 400W at 2 ohm and 200W at 4 ohm.

Sounds like a great price if the amps are working. Probably stolen for that price :eek:
