Need a good 5 channel. I have a PG Xenon 100.4 to trade.

If budget allows, the PDX-V9 from Alpine is a great choice. Its the only 5 channel I use. But the NVX will be a good budget friendly amp but less overall power than the Alpine.

sundown audio sae 1100.5 is another and is cheaper than the alpine. DD makes a 5 channel D5.1000 also but its expensive new, you can sometimes find them around $350 used and it is a super solid amp and probably puts out more power than all of the above.

The nvx 900.5 is a cheaper amp, but it does put out the power. I just noticed you need a smaller profile if possible.

Yep! I run an Alpine PDX-V9 and I LOVE IT!! Except the 500W sub output gets bogged down and heats up and safeguard shuts it down before I burn up the amp! The four 100W RMS outs work just fine!

Might help if you re-write the software for the sub ch only.

Oh no!! I LIKE useful featured which WORK!! And so far, every time I get a little BOOM-greedy, the overload protection WORKS for me! Shuts down the sub amp to cool off AND brings it back up after cooling off! And ready to cycle again!

Excessive heat is NOT A SOFTWARE FIX!! Heat is REAL!! It exists INDEPENDENT of all your cheap fast prototype software! :-(

There's a reason why it's doing that....50 bucks says you can't figure it out.

I'm no PM'ing that idiot.

Original poster, I know of a new 5 channel amp that is a step or 2 better than the nvx 900.5, and it puts out way more power on the sub channel for only $299.
