Hi All,
Looking to purchase a 2008 W216 CL500, however the radio amp is cooked and needs replacement. £800 is the replacement cost, so obviously scouting for alternatives other than sendin the unit away for repair.
Does the OEM amp do anything more than a similarly sized and rated aftermarket amp? A W216 amp is now 10+ years old, a newer amp can only be better? Or does Merc Command not like new hardware?
Thanks in advance,
Rob
