Default Alpine PDX form-factor

Curiosity got the best of me tonight... Picked up a PDX 2.150 from the local shop... they were having a "private" sale. I figure they should drive the BA Pro6, but the wattage to size ratio really made the sell.

The unit slides under the driver side seat out of the box. Tunnel and seat lever was in the way on the passenger side... It may fit towards the rear of the passenger side once the seat is completely removed... mounted on half inch MDF, it might be really tight.

I totally agree with you - I have a PDX4.150 and it powers my whole system with great power and has the SMALLEST unbelieveable footprint of any amp. To think I fit this amp over the gas tank and my soft top still clears it be about 1/2"!

2 channels run my Focal K2P power hungry front components

2 channels are bridged to my single 10w6v2!

Wow....those are small. Class D really opens up a lot of options size wise.

Nice install S4play. Could almost put two of those side-by-side on your amp rack (i.e. a 2.150 and 1.1000). Any pics of the cable runs? Did you run the 4/6ga power directly to your battery?

Looks like you're bridging the 3&4 ch to a sub.... how does that sound? I heard the amp is stable at 2Ohms when bridged.

I'm putting the PDX under the seat for the time being to figure out how it sounds and tune the amp... But above the gas tank definitely looks like the way to go.
