Okay I have been looking for a nice 5 channel amp and the ones that I came up with was the following:

1. Eclipse XA5000
2. Fosgate Limited Power 1000
3. Kicker ZX700.5

Those are the three that caught my attention. I am looking for opinions and if there are other 5 channel amps that would be better.

I understand that but I like to use as little space as possible.

If you have a king cab you are limited to about a 17" amp if your are installing behind the rear seat. It you have a crew cab with power rear glass you have even less space back there. Under the front seats will allow for about a 13" amp if you do not want anything hanging out and you can fit closer to a 20" amp in the factory jack location. If you build a rack within your enclosure length is of no issue.

Tech12volt custom built a box with a Boston G1 12" woofer and a 5 channel amp "all in one" and it looks really nice. I heard this setup and it sounds really great too! James, maybe you should post some pics of Transformers setup!

Thanks for the info. Now I am going to re-think what I am doing now fromm that info. I was thinking I would have space back there but I don't know now....Well I will do some more research and let everyone know my next move. All by the way what do you guys think about the Kenwood DNX7100 DVD/Nav receiver?

Thanks but I have already talked to him about the box I wanted in my truck. If I didn't go with 2 tens I would go down in sizes to maybe some 8 inch subs. So I will look at the items that you guys have listed and post back.
