Default Searched for amp verticle amp rack.

I found various people with this setup but no place to buy one.. does anyone offer premade racks the once that go agaist the back wall of the trunk on driver side making the amp stand up vertically?

Maybe this is just unique to my amp, but my Alpine PDX 4.100 specifically voids the warranty if it is mounted vertically. It must be mounted parallel to the floor.

I think Crutchfield where the ones spreading that rumor. There is no reason why you could not mount it vertically. My Alpine rep laughed when I asked him that.

agreed, that's BS, more so with a digital amp, I could see it with a class A, or A/B amp where it needs crazy cooling fans

the PDX owner's manual says
"Stack installation should always be parallel to the vehicle floor
