There are several amps sold. Is there a difference in front and rear amps? Has anyone seen those listed on ebay? I realize I should deep six the bose but I would like to keep the car as stock as possible. Thanks for the input.

here is the rub... new amps are not Corvette specific, they are generic amps.

if you can fix yours, that would be best.

Bose does offer replacement, but they are not specific amps. This means they are not equalized to the Corvette interior.

Another option is good used parts, and then making sure they are good... and installing new drivers. Bose sells the drivers.

The main failure part on the bose amp is a capacitor. This explodes goo everywhere and causes all sorts of problems.

The factory amps are not only front-rear specific, but also coupe vs. vert specific. At least on the later cars.

To me, there is no audible difference between the coupe and vert amps, and a huge difference between front and rear amps.
