Slim amps?

I was looking into getting some kind of slim amp to fit under the rear seat of my 93 s10 blazer. I saw a blaupunkt 4 channel slim amp and it looked like it would fit. any other amps that may be worth my money?
Blaupunkt - Amplifier - THA Series - THA 475 PnP

I originally wanted it under the seat but there is less than an inch on total clearance so under the front lip of the rear seat if what i want now if it can work. The size on each side is about 6x9. but how much heat would come off the slimmer amps.

Height isnt important anymore since its going to be on a slant under the front lip. im just restricted to the L x W now. so 6x9x3 would be fine.
4 channel would be nice since id like to run the front and rear speakers off of it but 2 channel in parallel will be fine

havent decided yet. im running the stock rears which sound like crap and the fosgate 4x6 ks46 off the deck. 300W sub from power acoustic amp.
id like to sorta hide the new amp since the power acoustic one is all chromed out and looks good.

Memphis has slim amps but similar power to but much higher price then the somy xm series.

Arc audio mini
here are other small full range class D's

Pioneer Premier PRS-D4200F (prsd4200f) , Car Amplifiers, Multi-channel Amps - Sonic Electronix

There is also the arc audio mini clone by elf audio hehe.

I personally run the sony xm-4s. So far so good.
