Powerbox 135.4-V5 4-channel stereo amplifier
The Powerbox 4-channel amplifiers are an entry-level series designed with a compact footprint and features that aid integration with OEM head units. All three Powerbox 4-channel amps suit smaller installs where space-saving and efficiency matter.
Compact footprint: Micro Class D technology keeps the internals small while delivering strong output for the size.
OEM integration: High-level inputs allow the amp to work directly with factory head units — no aftermarket head unit required. The Vibe Powerbox 400.1M mono amp is available if you need a dedicated subwoofer channel alongside.
Optimised functions: A bass remote is included, allowing continuous adjustment of amp levels without accessing the unit directly.
Versatile installation: The compact dimensions make it easy to conceal, and Autosense turn-on removes the need for a remote wire, simplifying integration with OEM systems.

About the Vibe POWERBOX135.4-V5
From our tech experts at CEN
The Vibe Powerbox 135.4-V5 is a compact micro Class D 4-channel car amplifier, delivering 4 × 135W RMS at 4 ohms or 4 × 210W RMS at 2 ohms. It measures 47 × 198 × 121mm and includes a bass remote. High-level inputs and Autosense turn-on let it connect directly to a factory head unit without additional adaptors.
Who it suits
This amp suits drivers who want to upgrade factory audio without replacing the head unit. The compact footprint makes it practical where boot or under-seat space is limited. For a dedicated subwoofer channel alongside, consider the Vibe Powerbox 400.1M.
Our tech experts advise
At 47 × 198 × 121mm, it tucks under a seat or into a small boot corner with ease. Autosense turn-on removes the need for a remote wire from the head unit, keeping the install tidy. Pair it with an 8 AWG wiring kit for clean power delivery — the Vibe 8 AWG kit is a compatible option. Installation is priced per vehicle; visit our car audio installation page for details.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I choose the right amplifier for my speakers or subwoofer?
A: Match the amplifier's RMS output per channel to the RMS handling of your speakers or subwoofer at the same impedance. The Specification tab lists the power figures. If in doubt, contact CEN with your setup and we will recommend a match.
Q: What wiring do I need to install this amplifier?
A: You will need an amplifier wiring kit sized to the amplifier's power draw, typically including power and earth cable, a fuse, RCA leads and a remote wire. CEN stocks complete wiring kits, and the amplifier's fuse rating is the guide to the cable gauge required.
Q: What class of amplifier is this and does it matter?
A: Class D amplifiers are compact and efficient, ideal for subwoofers and modern installs. Class AB designs are traditionally favoured for outright sound quality on mid and high frequencies. The class is listed in the Specification tab where provided.
Q: Will an amplifier work with my factory head unit?
A: Yes, in most cases. If your head unit has no RCA outputs you will need a line output converter to feed the amplifier a clean signal. CEN stocks line output converters and can advise the right one for your vehicle.
Q: Can CEN install this amplifier?
A: Yes. CEN offers professional amplifier installation from our Nottingham premises, including secure mounting, wiring and setup. Contact us to book.
Q: Does the Powerbox 135.4-V5 need a remote turn-on wire?
A: Not when using the high level inputs. Its auto sense feature turns the amplifier on and off with the factory head unit, so no remote wire is needed.
Q: How much power does the Vibe Powerbox 135.4-V5 deliver?
A: 4 x 135W RMS at 4 ohms or 4 x 210W RMS at 2 ohms, with a maximum power of 1680W.
