Alpine 6490 subwoofer, circa 1985

Neat to see, although I'm not familiar with it. It's a couple years before my time. Probably pretty rare at this point, you might consider keeping it for the sake of nostalgia. Have you auditioned it and do you like the way it sounds?

I hope you're not the one who's been wasting alot of people's time.

My car audio is all setup (3 amps, 3 pair of speakers + subwoofer). Don't need the Alpine, & need to move it. Yeah, I was wondering if it had any value as a rare-bird.

There are 2 speakers (""folder horn speaker system")..is this really a subwoofer??

I would have to play with it to know for certain. I'm sure it is though.
