Need any information on an alpine 3532 4 channel amp

[geriatricnurse]

Hello, a friend of mine wants to get rid of an old amp he has laying around but doesn't know much about it, can anyone shed some light? I've done a lot of googling and have come up with a little bit like it being possibly 18/4 rms and 40/4 max. I recently purchased a alpine dvd player that I didn't know required an outside amplification source and was hoping this alpine 3531 would fit the bill? From pictures it seems like I shouldn't need to run another power cable from the battery but I could be wrong. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The hu is a iva d100 if that matters.

D'oh meant 3531... well hopefully that hasn't outed me as a complete noob. haha

The 3531 is 18W x 2. I did a quick search through some of our old Alpine documents and the 3532 seems to be newer than our records cover. A lot of our old manuals and equipment were sold off a few years ago.

I would still run a separate fused power line from the battery for this amplifier, even if it's only 18W x 4.

he has the connector to go into the power side but does not have the speaker level inputs which I don't want anyway.

Thanks for taking the time to look through your archives, I was hoping it wasn't too old where the manuals were gone, guess its too be expected though thanks again. 18x4 is about what I needed, the HU I got supposedly came with a small amp but was lost along time ago. This should do until I can upgrade later it was pretty cheap. I only have some cheapish Pioneer 5x8's in my car the A6885 from Best Buy they say 60 watt rms but they were distorting bad just with my old HU so I doubt they can actually handle that but i'm a old school guy coming back so maybe they can. Thanks again!
