I'll never get the whole stance bullshit, but by god that's a super clean install in the boot. Kudos!

I have been watching bid d wiz on youtube and Steve Meade they both demo some impressive small amps.
There is a small 4 channel Kenwood which produces over its rated power.

Are those amps expensive?

Looking good btw.

Hi Paul,

Steve Meade is a good friend of mine, I'm an active member on his forum and used this products for years...you may remember my Previa from a few years back...

Im not sure on what Kenwood amp your referring to, but Kenwood are extremely mainstream and batch buy their products from build houses in the far east. I know most audio products come from there, however, theres a BIG difference in the build houses out there....some you can consider being back street garages which manage to get massive numbers, others you can consider to be the Rolls Royce of manufacturers, and others are medium sized that churn out proper hardcore amplifiers for the enthusiasts

Let me know what your looking for and ill help you out

Around 400quid for the 4 channel. which to be fair is not a bad price when u can hide them and have a sound of a big system without massive amps taking up boot space.

bassboy I love steve Meades shop system thats mental not so sure on his taste of music tho lol.

400 quid. A bit dear for me but a good idea about hiding them out of the way.

Those small amps can be had for less if you look at the Gladen brand, they are ever so slightly bigger but still put out decent power

Steve Meades shop is awesome...his "towers" use the same speakers I had in my Previa, I had 16 midranges and 16 tweeters in that thing!

The other two midranges per side are inside the cabin area - one on top of the dash and one in the kick panels, extra tweeters were up on the dash to

That guy has worked hard to get where he is today...but also VERY lucky in that due to his YouTube exposure, he gets a lot of equipment free as the manufacturers know that it will sell once they see him using it lol lucky git!

How tall are the amps? Would be very interested if they are short enough to fit under the factory false floor in the boot of my Passat b6
