Hey Greg,
   I just worked through a similar audio upgrade.
Based on passed experiences with amps in tight or
confined spaces like under the driver's seat or in the
back closet I chose a more open location.  I've had
bad things happen to/with amps in confined spaces.  I
knew I was gonna have to give up a littls storage
space one way or another and after lots of thinkin' I
put my amps under the sink.  I removed the false
bottom in there and have a 4 x 75 watt amp and a 200w
sub amp under there.  I also installed a cooling fan
in the back.
   Obviously the first thing I did was re-check and
double check all my sink/water connections.  No leaks
thank you very much. :)  With the false bottom removed
both amps fit under the shelf.  I also "just in case"
put a bead of silicone along the sides of the shelf in
case of sudden water problem.  The shelf will then
protect the amps as any drips will run down and off
the back of the shelf.  Oh ya, I also tilted the shelf
back like 3 degrees just for the purpose.
