I love Hifonics

I think they're great for the money and the Brutus line is 2006 cea compliant too, I had this one pushing 2 Alpine Type X in a ported box and it absolutely slammed! it was in an explorer but you could feel a breeze in the car from moving so much air...I just didnt like the neon blue logo that stayed lit during play. Whats your set up?

Audiopipe apsm amps. Do rated and cheap. The brutus, I've heard do rated, but are quite a bit higher. I've personally ran, and sold Audiopipe amps
and have had great success with them.

doesn't like cheap amps and only looking to spend 250-300 for 2000W+ rms LOL

what about your charging system? H/O alternator? 2nd battery? big 3? 0+ gauge wiring? custom built to spec box?

my RD 1750.1 was $350 which is cheap for a nice class D that does rated+ power. but you probably need more power than that. but if its going to work right your going to want to look into what i've mentioned above.

and what is that "foot to the floor" nonsense

I never seen any ap amp do rated. Let along clean power. If an amp as fuses on it. Its pretty much no going to do anything near what it's rated at. A real amo will require external fuses and take 0 gauge wire for power and ground inputs. Just a FYI. And also glad to hear you did the big 3 already.

Honestly on my l7 15's I had a powerbass xta 5k and never had a problem.
Dc audio
Sundown
Cresendo
Rockford fosgate cp addition
American bass.
Something along those lines
But remember the more power - true power the more money you will spend. You just need to shop around. If you need any help pm me and I have no problem helping out.

Apsm2000 is external fused, 1/0 input. Not as clean as a Sundown or other Korean made amp, but for a little over $200 they're freakin great. Haven't clamped a 2k yet, but have clamped an ap1500. 1584 watts

I have 2 hifonics amps running all my speakers. I have a Brutus running my 2 kicker L7's. I am getting old and they are getting to loud.


Why not get the blown amp rebuilt. Will run around same price
