Default 4 channel amp in cb hole

Adding lowers to my sled. Looking for recommendations on a four channel micro amp that will fit in the CB hole on a 2015 street glide. Thank you

No personal experience but the new NVX VADM4 looks like a powerhouse.

I don't think the amp I recommended would fit that Application. When you said you wanted an amp to push lowers and fit in the CB hole I assumed the amp was only to push the lowers. That's a good catch by tailwind.

SS flhx also pointed out to me that the NVX vadm4 does not come with RCA inputs. At least it doesn't show in the pictures. This would be easily overcome with a set of adapters readily available. If you look at the input sensitivity specs it shows comparable input voltages of a normal amp.

The new nvx vadm4 does come with rca inputs and will fit in the cubby hole perfect. I am running a set of hertz off just the front channels of the vadm4 and had to back off the gains to blend better with my fairing setup. Now that being said, those sv's don't need a bunch of power to get loud. Prv's will be the same way. That amp is rated 60w per channel but independent testing shows more like 95w per channel @ 4 ohm.

BTW the box states 75w x 4 at 4 ohms but more like 100.

Thanks for the info TG!

Think two would fit in the tray?

SS do you still have the JL XD600/6?
