    Anyone have amps under thier seat w/ pictures?

    I'm looking for an amp(s) that will fit under the seat. Hopefully it is a multi-channel amp since the plan is to power a pair of co-axials up front, and a pair of subs in the rear. I don't know if the subwoofer setup will be at 4ohm or 2ohm mono.

    The price of that amp makes it REALLY attractive. How do you like it? Not sure if I can go with it since it isn't muti-channel...but nice amp regardless!

    Thank you for the other options! Did any of you have any worries about connecting the wires at any "possible" bad angles? I don't want to ruin a set of RCA's by bending stuff in the wrong way.

    No issues on RCAs, I'll try to find some pictures and post up this weekend for you. Biggest issue I had with RCAs was on the back of my head unit. I'll have to do some fibreglassing this summer for my head unit.

    A lift, some wheels, some tires, some performance, some cosmetic and then audio.
    I had JL Audio HD 600/4, 1000/1 and 300/4 under mine at one point...the 1000/1 is long though. But the 600/4 (current) fits nice see sig.
