Default TDA7850 Usage?

Has anyone here looked into this mini amp, or had any experience with it? I've done the Google searches, just want to know if anyone on this forum has tried it for any reason.

It's going into a Harley, so high fidelity is not really an issue. I'm putting it in a small, ventilated project box - attached a heat sink from a PC power supply and cooling with a small fan. I'll be feeding mp3 and Sirius to it.

I was just wondering if anyone here has experience/issues with it...I noticed on some other forums people were installing it in vehicles.

Just for $hits, grins and giggles I'm going to hook it up in my C4 and see how it behaves... That's my testbed...just wanted an idea of what to expect, of how underwhelmed I should be. Easier to hook up in the Vette than on the bench.
