Amp Rack designs

suggestions? #3 or #6 is what I'm liking the most!

Looks wise, I like 3 the best.
But I pick #1 as it has the shortest wire lengths (amps to distros n stuff)
second choice (for the same reasons) would be #5

EDIT: does the winner get that amp you have for sale????

none!
all are too close together for my liking.
i say use the space available and it out more. this will make the wiring look neater. not so jammed together.
just my opinion folks!
looks like a nice setup though

put them in a way where you can access the dials if need be.

Yuli - great idea - thanks for the input! The dials are all on the top of the amps so no matter how it's laid out. I like the fact that Audison took the time to think of the user in their amps!

nghtrdr - the space allocated underneath is what I have to work with. I'm installing 4 - 120mm cooling fan off a relay plus the spare tire is to remain underneath. There will be a second beauty board then carpet to cover the entire trunk when my wife buys some **** we don't need ( maybe she thinks the same about car audio )

Al - Setup #6 would be the shortest lengths from distro to amp the grey end caps are all the wire connections! I'm 90% sure on #3 but I may move the distros right beside the amp on the right side and move the 3sixty's closer to the middle!

I think you need to lay it all out in the car first. From what I can tell you want access to the storage space in the hatch. And from what you've told me, you will be putting the sub on one side. Do you have enough room to put all the amps on the other side, which would give you lots (sort of) room in the hatch. You could place the amps vertically and stagger them. You really don't need to see any of the other gear. But if you really want to see it, there will be lots of space for them in other locations. Are you looking for a showy install or more stealth?
