I am not sure if this is allowed or not, and if not, then please just delete this thread. But here is my problem.

To begin, I am being rather meticulous with my new audio setup. Right now, I have 2 Alpine Type R subs, with an Alpine amp built to power the subs at their RMS. I have 4 Alpine Type R component speakers, but no amp! Once I get the amp, I will fiberglass a sub box and build an amp rack that displays both the speaker and sub woofer amps side by side. The only problem I face right now is not having my speaker amp.

So here's my request: I am looking for a particular amp. Since I already have my subwoofer amp already purchased for the subs, I need the same model amp for the speakers. I want this to look sleek. And placed together, I'm hoping that will be the case. The amp I am looking for is the Alpine V12 MRV-F540. It's a 4 channel amp, with 150x4W- peak.


So if anybody knows a seller of one of those amps new, or used without scratches, please let me know.

But here is where my exotic offer comes to play. I received my paycheck yesterday, placed it in the bank today, and then bought it today. Yesterday, the Amazon seller I bought from had 5 amps in stock and today I bought the last one. But I received a phone cal about 2 hours after my transaction saying that somebody else beat me to the punch about 15 min (sucks, right?). So here is the result of my long winded stories: I was going to pay $429.99 from Amazon for a new Alpine MRV-F540 ampz: http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-V12-MRV...7691714&sr=8-1. But since they're discontinued, I cannot find a way to get my hands on one. If somebody owns one, I am willing to buy them this amp insteadand we can trade: http://www.amazon.com/Alpine-PDX-4-1...3090972&sr=8-1

That amp is the new line of Alpine Amps, has similar specifications and will fit as a direct replacement. Why would I do such a chaotic deal? Because I don't want to have to buy 2 new amps. So if your old Alpine MRV-F540 is clean and unscratched, I will consider it a fair trade to get you the new PDX amp, since I was going to pay that much anyway. Or you can choose any amp really, within reason, around that price range.

If you are interested- PM me, email me at BringMeASunkist@gmail.com or ask and I'll give you my phone number so we can talk more efficiently. But this isn’t a classified ad, necessarily. This is mostly me asking help in finding a seller. I’ll take used sure, but new is most certainly much more preferred. And points in the right direction would be fantastic. Thanks for reading my novel/ sob story

try this one.....auction up in 4 days i believe.......

 

Ya thanks man. I checked that out but so far the seller has not been replying. Will see how it turns out though

 

Well, as for a recent update- I got everything situated. I ended up completely redoing the audio in my truck. Here are some pics, I took an assload...






The tweeters are located in the A-pillars. The enclosures for both the doors and subs are wrapped in the same suede and leather that the car is trimmed and upholstered in. So I managed to work everything out. Albeit a hassle, a success in the end. I appreciate the help.

 

def. looks good man congrats.....
