Brian, you might have something there. I was seriously thinking about those when I was in the toilet :lol:

I've heard a few of them when helping Bing tune this car: http://www.diymobileaudio.com/forum/diy ... w-car.html

I was VERY impressed by their power, but their footprint is a bit worrisome to me.

Where the best place to buy?

My M amps might go out of storage :wink:

morgan (mw3 on the phorum) can direct you to the best place. wink...nudge...

the length depends on the power you want to go with...but the height and width is pretty damn small. i have been very excited for these because i can fit them under seats for installs.

vin, I said it in an edit so you may have missed it, but the info you quoted is for an XA4000 not an EA4000. The XA has over twice as much power in a similar footprint. The size and power of the EA4000 is more in line with class A/B.

nevermind. after a quick search it's defintely a switching amp. I'm not sure what is is, but it's not the A/B goodness you're after.
