Premium Audio Amp

Does anyone have the Volvo part numbers for the two premium audio amps?

Now that I'm in Cali, all my drives appear to be much longer, so I think it's finally time to upgrade the audio.

I'd rather buy the Volvo parts than the Overpriced Aston Parts...

Thanks!

I have been looking for a new amp as well for my premium audio system. Are you having issues with yours or are you looking to upgrade from the standard audio?

Hoping someone has some pictures of the Volvo part numbers

There are two Amps screwed together in the right rear fender well.

Oh, I am very familiar with where they are and the differences. I have just been trying to find a solution for my intermittent sound problem. I do not have the bluetooth module in my car so i am presuming my amp is going bad. I have searched for the Volvo part number too but have had no luck finding what volvo vehicle it comes from. There are many volvo part numbers and similar looking units but none exact to the Premium AM unit.... I will look back through and see if I can find the AM "volvo" part photos I took

Thank you ArtB!
Any photos of the labels on your premium amps would be much appreciated!

My wife took my X-Terra for a wash this weekend, and made a comment about how much better the stereo is in there than my Aston

No, the wife doesn't usually wash my cars, but I think I've washed the X half a dozen times since owning it. It is a 4x4, and a proper wash is a little rain

Nonetheless, I fear she is mocking me because I spent hours attempting to cross reference the part numbers yesterday while only half listening to her while she was attempting to have some important conversation with me about something or another

Used ones are around, Volvo sells exchanged ones for top dollar. I have 1 extra one. Volvo # 30775455. Do a search on this forum. There is a thread of all the maps and speakers with part numbers also.

If you at all care about fidelity consider having a good car audio shop upgrading with after market components. Most of the time they fit just like OEM and offer better quality.

I used official Aston Martin parts to upgrade my audio to Premium.

All part numbers can be obtained from Aston Bits or Scuderia site break out diagrams.

All speaker wires should exist in their stock locations, taped down to prevent rattling. Easiest test is to lift up on the rear grill to pop it out and take a look around.

I had installed all the components, then took it to the dealer for a flash upgrade to activate.

I believe I had a thread on this forum I used to document all my part numbers.

Let me know if you cannot find it, and I can try to do a search when I'm in front of my laptop next

Also, feel free to DM me for my mobile if you have questions.
