Can anyone recommend a SMALL four channel less then 60 X 4 amp to run my dash and doors in a 1996 Somoma. The space behind the seat is gone do to the sub and amp. Under the drivers seat or in the console is were it one will fit. I have Rockford series 1 that kicks a and fits but the chance of finding another are slim. Thanks.

Small as in physically small? The new Apline PDX series amps are really compact. A 4.100 might be your ticket. ------------- Support the12volt.com

Yes, small physically. 10" or 11" wide by 8" deep and 2 1/4" high. That would be pefect for under the seat. the 8" deep seams to be the tuff one.

Sony makes a couple small amps that are specifically designed for your situation.

Alpine PDX or Pioneer Premiere will be 2 amps to look at right now. ------------- Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.

Money IS an object. I don’t intend to win any competitions when it’s complete. Just clean sound. It will only run mids and highs so it won’t need to be a killer.

The PDX series is a little thick for you I think...Alpine lists it at 2 7/16 tall. The footprint fits though.
The only thing I've found that's crazy thin is the Xtant .1 series, which are also crazy expensive.
Personally, I'm looking for something even thinner...less than 2", but I'm more flexible with the footprint. Fitting an amp under the seat of a Civic is tough.

Here is a small possibility. Has any one heard Urban Audio Works? It’s a 4 X 50W max. Model AW-4200. https://www.realmofexcursion.com/ampguts/Urban_Audio_Works_AW-4200/

It's too tall for me, and from the internal construction, doesn't look like it's a very high end product at all. Kinda disappointing IMO. It might work for the OP though. ------------- This is not a sig. This is a duck. Quack.

Um yes, it is a flea market type of amplifier, not one that I would recommend personally. Here is a link to the Pioneer. https://www.pioneerelectronics.ca/pna/product/detail/0,,32171715_226727547_438166863_tab=B,00.html?compName=PNA_ProductDetailComponent ------------- Top Secret, I can tell you but then my wife will kill me.
