Looking for a good mini amp to go in the fairing of a '08 Harley Davidson Street Glide motorcycle. Without spending a ton of money what do you recommend for a good quality (no flea-market amps) amp? Say like $75-$150! Thanks guys!

2-5 1/4" speakers, I need an amp like 8x6x2 or smaller. Will need a converter. Thanks.

This is the smallest and most affordable quality amp I know of. Alpine Power Pack The problem is Alpine still hasn't shipped them to the dealers yet. Zapco also has the I-force I-250 which is 7.625"L x 10.75"W x 2.25"H and has awesome quality and output at a reasonable price. ARC Audio makes the KS-125.2 mini which is TINY at 8.25X4.8X1.7 inches and would offer great quality. I have no idea what the price is on the ARC but you can put your zip in here ARC dealer locator and find out pretty quick. If you go with the ARC, make sure you tell them where you got the info. We Zapco guys like to mess with the ARC guys every chance we get.

Let us know which way you end up going. Also keep in mind that you can upgrade the Head unit and keep the factory handle bar remote controls if you want. PAC makes an interface for the Harley Davidson Motorcycles.

I read a big article on the Arc Mini that said it is a card that just comes from a manufacturer and there is a lower end amp company that has this same card in it! Does anybody know anything about this?

It's no Zapco or Arc, but Lanzar had a line of small amps that got some good reviews. Allaudioexpo has the opti2x150 that's 100x2 for less than $150 shipped. It's low profile and narrow at only 6.6 x 1.7, but it's 9.5 long.
