SC-901, Dolby Processor & Amplifier

Post by Ludermilch »

I had this installed in my 98 V70 XC

I want to sell this as a complete set for the person who is looking to swap out their sc-816 or other system. $250 shipped. Local pickup available in the North Georgia area.
It includes:
*SC-901 head unit with changer cartridge
*Dolby Digital Processor
*200w Amp from an 850r
*Harness for amp
*Center channel wire

Both the amp and Dolby Processor have the bracket for mounting behind the radio. Suggest you do as I did and mount the amp as designed and remove the bracket from the Dolby Processor and work into the space between the glove box and radio. The beauty of this setup is you are only opening up the dash, not running wires under the carpet or removing the seat like other arrangements.

Why am I selling this? Well, I picked up another Dolby sound system with a 400w Alpine amplifier and Dynaudio speakers and replaced the tried and true system you are looking at now. Seriously. It's a magnitude better than the standard system most Volvos get.

If you are interested in having the whole experience, I have a Dolby Digital Surround dash with speaker. It has a broken bezel on the speaker grill so I'll let it go for what the speaker usually sells for, otherwise you can just buy the speaker.

If you're ever willing to part this set, I'm interested in the amplifier and its harness.

Great! Can't be purchased from volvo anymore. I prefer to buy from you rather than scour the junkyards!

While packing up the wire for shipping, the tag on the wire said PN 8618362-004. Perhaps an old #

Did the amp and HU set sell yet?

I can't find this stuff anywhere and my amp went up in smoke last week.

I would PM you but I don't think the site allows me to yet. Sorry if the bump is pointless!
