Default Tiny 2-channel ampflier?

I'm looking 2-channel ampflier which should be small...to hide it somewhere and it would not cost too much...

What would you recommend nowdays...

Before a MOD moves your request to the sales section of this site you'll help yourself and forum members by giving us your description of 'small' (dimension - power output). I possibly have what you are looking for as I just bought an amp to do what I think you want to do. I ended up getting a vintage lookalike radio to keep the interior of my car looking completely original. The amp has maybe one hours use and has become one more of those things using up space in my garage. PM me.

There are plenty of these "motorcycle style amps on the big auction site as well.... A friend of mine wired one up in his garage and I was amazed at the output.
I also went with a retro sound unit myself.... I am satisfied with it just remember to shop around... the unit I bought is advertised by the sponser here for over $100 more than elsewhere... I think that's taking advantage a bit myself...

Okay... i don't live in united states so...i'm planning to buy amp from ebay or local dealer here..

Retro Sound Zuma is head unit(not received yet) but i think that good and strong sound will need additional amp. 2 channel would be okay if dimensions are right...

I got one called the Left Coast Simple Stereo. It's a bit bigger than a pack a cigarettes, powers my front speakers well, and came with a USB Power, and Mini Stereo audio connection. I have tucked under the tunnel covers, below and inboard of the old stereo (non-op now), and I drilled out the ash tray to accept the small panel with inputs on it.

Not sure on their sales outside the US.

I have the Alpine version of this amp:

It actually plugs into your head unit (no power wire needed), mine is sitting behind my CD player in the dash.

The above unit should work with any stereo, the Alpine unit worked with my Alpine CD player.

Good luck
