why are old school amps worth so much?

[jol50]

I don't follow prices on these that well, but at $35 for an alphasonik DP200 shipped. Hour to go.

Is that the booster? I have one here I'll look at the number. Many of those older small amps have wires for speakers and also wires for high level input. Usually they are green for left and black stripe for neg. Most of the time the two neg speaker wires will be connected inside and speaker output may be larger gauge. Some only have three wires input for common ground. This one I have has some extra wires connected to itself for what input you use, changes gain or something I'm not sure. You should probably start a new thread for this.

My new OS amp arrived today!!!!

The Sony XES-M50 (the holy grail of Sony amps) to bad Sony went the other direction....they had a real chance to do something right.

This is by far my most rare amp....I have been looking for one of these for about 2 years!!!

Sure looks sweet! I'm working on my treat, finally got hold of a HK ca260 but it has issues and is not so nicely laid out inside. If I get it going I'll have a 260 and a 240 to run together.

 

[amc32]

Jol,I have 2 hk 260 if interested.Will trade for something interesting.Heatsink has some scratches and I don't know if they work.This is how I got them,was going to back in my chevelle for retro-install but gas for that car is getting to exspensive.

Soundstream lil wonder stars and stripes board. 260260841835
Does that mean it is a 1976?

 

[jol50]

Furi? Made in USA. Kinda beat but never seen one of these. 260261029117

 

[amc32]

Are you thinking of buying both of them.JOL

 

[jol50]

Amc32, sure send me an email or PM.

 

[amc32]

I'm talking about the Furi and Soundstream amps

 

[ppia600]

That furi doesn't look "old school". I could have sworn they popped up in the late 90's. Maybe I'm wrong

I wish the car audio section had a sticky thread that would allow people to post their car audio stuff before doing the bay.

The market place traiding post here is over run with everything other than car audio.

BTW: AMC....I would of given you more than 37 for the SS flag

 

[jol50]

I'm talking about the Furi and Soundstream amps

Only for the right price as I have a couple rubicons and too many odd amps...though not near as many as some here, not even close. I have not used the SS amps yet either; want to try those and sets of HK, Nak, alpine, LP, maybe some others and some new amps too. Well you know I had planned on having that done by now but no time yet. Have to rewire the car and that is holding me up, wire new HU and more amp wire. Never cut your amp wiring to size if you are me.... Then I will know for sure they all sound the same right, lol!

 

[jpruden]

I'm with Jonny... I've got quite a few items I'm going to be selling off and I'd hate to ebay all of it... it's gonna take *hours* to type it all in. Besides that, I'd rather give you guys first crack at it.

Do you think the powers that be would mind if we posted a "Hey guys, check out the Trading Post" post? I surely don't want to aggravate anyone's day...

Who should we ask about the sticky thread?
