I am looking at using them but have heard of some problems with the technology: 1 they pump the 12 volts. 2 The switching noise that they generate can also be quite high.

Both prolems can be over come if the amp is design right.

I've heard mixed reviews, most people that have used both traditional amps (in this case rockford fosgate) say they prefer them over the Blaupunkt. The packaging does seem incredibly small.

For reference you can fit an amplifier 25cm x 18 cm in the cubby hole. Do a search for mikeythemini, he has a pick of a kenwood amp in each side. When I was shopping for amps there were a number that would fit (at least on paper). So there's more space in there then it looks!
