[Found] Volvo 850 amplifier

jamesinc

Hi all,

Am looking for an amp for my 850. My current amp blew up. Looking to spend $50 tops. I could repair the old amp but it's a PITA to separate the board from the heatsink so here I am.

Does it have to be a genuine Volvo one? I have an Alpine one at home that came out of my 240 that may be of use?

Yeah I want to keep all the original stuff in. Otherwise I'd just pull the whole stereo and re-do it.

No problem. I am a bit the same. Since I'm not a big audiophile, I'd prefer to keep the original stuff in the car if I have it.
The Alpine one I have is not a Volvo-Alpine, but an Alpine V-Power something or other.

I wonder if the V70 has one in it?

They put them in the top of range or optioned up.With surround sound (centre speaker ones) they had a signal processor and an amp. Alpine made all that stuff so using an amp from them may only need the wires spliced , maybe not?

V70XC should have one @Rob.
