i liek that clipping indicator

SUX 2BU is a big fan of these amps. Pretty nice stuff, and this one looks to be in mint condition.

Mark

everyone should be a fan of those amps

Does anyone have any info on an Alpine 3518?Not the same bad boy on this post but still classic!

Those things look totally sweet... if you told me they were a 2005 model Id probably believe it !!!

Its one of the very few high-end amps around ultilizing Bipolar output devices... and you could run balanced in for 1 channel @700W 4 ohms.

Nice amps but anyone looking for over about $400 US each is delusional.

Have you seen the internals of these puppys? This is one serious amp! designed by Rich Coe & built by Alpine in "88" for serious car audio competitions.. This amp tonally, dyanamically, and control is very good... not like amps now a days.. in $1000+us level.

1000 us 15 years ago maybe

I agree that they are excellent amps. Hey I'm a big fan of them also but like Paul stated they just aren't worth that kind of dough these days.

I would say that an item is worth what a buyer wants to pay for it though. The same reason why an enthusiest will pay $250,000 for a Hemi Cuda even though they can get a '05 Corvette Z06 that will outperform it in every aspect for less than half that price.

Sweet amps and one of the best looking pieces ever. A square brick, the way an amp should look IMO.

The old skool stuff is always better. ! Why is that ?

The old school stuff is not always better!

Some old school things are cool, but you cannot generalize like that.

Looks great Chad, is that the one you picked up on RS?

those are the coolest looking amps ever. they have such a classy vibe to them...

These are great Alpine amp with a big hunger for current, I have setup a few in my time and they had almost perfect SQ for an alpine amp I remember a write up on them, almost 1200watts @ a 2 ohm load bridged

Indeed it is, Ross. Not bad for $140 eh? [img]graemlins/thumb.gif[/img] I don't mind saying the price I paid cuz I ain't never selling that bad boy! I waited 15 years to get one.

Nice score for $140 !!!
