Got my system in finally. Had everything under my bed now for 2 months. Wow, I must say its incredible.
Now, I was hoping to get some quick tips on setting these amps up properly.
I'm going for sound quality not loudness.

What do you mean by "set-up"? Hook up? or tuning?.

Make 100% sure that you use feather pillows and comforter, other materials absorb sound at a exponential rate and may leave you wanting to put more equipment under the mattress. A queen size mattress and box spring will have the best results. If the speakers are too close to the bottom of the box spring, damage to the speakers may occur when the roomate breaks your box spring. To prevent this from happening, install a new lock on the door and electrify the door handle.

Replace all gear with marine grade equipment. I recommend the waterproof Eclipse SM6500 speakers and Infinity amplifiers.

And what if it's one of those beds where you insert a quarter for vibration & extra-love-mode, any tips on securing the gear?

I dont recommend the "vibration & extra-love-mode". The motors are way to noisy, both mechanically and electrically, and generally speaking, just not necessary, if you are doing things right... Rob and Jeff will probably agree.

It all reminds me of something that Molière once said to Guy de Maupassant at a café in Vienna: "That's nice. You should write it down."
