My. Greens from NY

When i first saw this amp and read through the reviews i knew this would be a very smart choice. i just had mine installed last week and man, this thing slaps so hard its insane. i can here this thing all the way down my street behind my buddy's fence(500ft). When my wife wants a massage i dont even have to get up anymore, i just have my boy go downstairs and turn on the car. sometimes i play some of that young jeezy slap for the premium massage. when i roll into work i roll with style. inside my employees know its me comin because half the store shakes therefor its a mess when i come in. Trust me and ALL the other reviews, this amp is the best if you dont wanna pay too much and if you want serious power. honestly i dont even know how my heart hasnt stopped yet this thing is so loud. ive gotten like 20 loud music ticketts!!!!!

If you buy tis amp you better have some very good subs. if you hook this up to any thing @1 ohm that cant handle 2000 TRUE watts rms,its gone. i have owned this amp for 6 months and have been through RE's, MOFO's,COMP's...... you name them , they all faild. only thing for me to do now is buy i more HF1200.1 and sink over a grand in two 18 FI BTL N2's. this should be fun and loud. i highly recomend this amp, cheap price but not if you dont have right subs, cause you will spend all the rest of your $ replacing them.................lol

I would like to say that I recommend this Hifonics amp or any of the Hifonics Brutus amps in general! Ive had mine hooked up for about 3 weeks now and since, blown 3 subwoofers lol and thats just going to show you how underrated and powerful these amps are!
This amp has never over heated yet and/or even got warm at all!!! Must have amp if you are on a budget for sure! Also, the Hifonics on the amp lights up as a really cool blue color! Not like that matters but pick this amp up!!!

I bought this amp knowing it would make my subs louder but when we wired it up it was way above my expectations. I have 2 12" kicker comp vr's and they sounded perfect with this amp. It made clean bass but it also was very loud and shook my entire house apart.

This amp right here, Wow... All i have to say... I have had this baby power 2 alpine 10" 2012 alpines in a 2 cube ported enclosure at 1 ohm, and they pounded the living hell out of my poor little subby...
I currently have the amp hooked up to a rockford t2d2 woofer at 1 ohm.. And i was a little skeptical at first thinking, why am i hooking up a cheaper amp to a 900 dollar sub... Man was i wrong. This amp pushed the living hell out of the 900 dollar woofer... Throwing the maximum excursion of 4 inches off the sub with zero stress, at barely HALF THE POWER. Please.. please buy this amp.. It is the only amp in the price range that can deliver this much bass for the affordable price.

This amp is one ohm stable and provides the actual RMS output it is supposed to(unlike Sony xPlode and other brands I consider a joke). I run a competition sub in a tuned box and this amp has plenty of power to drive the massive motor and magnet it has. It produces clean bass and has never gotten hot. I can make peoples ears hurt and get girls wet from bass and vibrations, lots of power. If you are looking for a budget friendly amp that produces great power, this is the amp for you!

This amp has done very well. I've had it for 6 months and not a problem yet. I was running 2 10in cvr's with this amp it pushed them damn good. Now I have it pushing 2 10 in Sundown Sa's and its Not enough power for them. I will be getting a bigger amp from the brz line.

This amp is not all that to look at becauseit has a boring details but the blue neon words are nice. This is a great amp for the money and has some pushing power when wired at 1ohm and it doesn't get hot and shut down. I have it wire at 1ohm on 4 Massive Audio dual 4 0hm 12 in h subs in my sub and I have no complaint power is doing it job.

I first started looking into HiFonics products because of the value. After reading the reviews, I tried them out. This is the best sub amp I've ever owned. Plenty of power! I am pushing 2 Rockford Fosgate P1's and am running it at about 50% Subs slam! The amp lights up blue, remote adjustible gain is awesome! Buy this amp. You won't regret it!

This amp is a really good bang for your buck, plus its CEA compliant so you can have peace of mind. I have owned this amp for about 1 year and it has never given me any problems nor has it never gotten hot or went into protect mode.
This amp currently powers my 1 12" Kicker L7 sub. The sub is Dual 4 ohms and i have it wired to a 2 ohm load and this amp powers it without any problems. For such a powerful amp, it is pretty small (Digital technology For The Win) so you can install it in a lot of tight locations.

I am using this amp with 2 Sundown audio 12" subs "E series". I have 2 4 ohm subs and are wired up to a 1 ohm load. The amp hasn't had any problems at all. I bought this because I was on a budget, and am glad that I did. I have money now if i wanted to, but I just dont need to buy another amp because it works so good rite now. Great amp

I am completely satisfied with this amp it gets the job done and a whole lot more! I upgraded from my brutus 1208d to this 1700.1d and it is perfect. I am powering an Audioque sdc 2.5 15 dual 4 wired to 2 ohms in a 4.6 cf tuned to 32 hz stuffed in the trunk of my grand marquis and i love it. This baby puts out some really clean power, i have my gain set to 2.5v to match my headunit. With no bass boost at the amp or HU, i just have my eq set to 0 and it is clean as #@%$ I have a yellowtop up front and all Knukonceptz wiring.
Also, a huge thank you to Sonic Electronix for your awesome free shipping, not only was it fast (4 days total from cali to ohio) but you guys pack your shipments like gods, there was at least 4 inches of thoroughly packed packing peanuts surrounding the amp box on all sides, I am extremely satisfied. Thank you Sonic Electronix

I rated it 4.5 stars for making a day out of trouble shooting im changing it to 5* when i bought the amp i thought it was gonna put out 900watts rms to my scar vvx 12 d4... after receving the amp i noticed it wasnt possible to hook it up to 2ohm load so i went for the 1ohm load and risked my scar. My lisence plate moves in waves and my bass nob fell off my lap with 1 sub and all windows down 5* clean power looks great and its 2006 compliant cant go wrong!!! Banging on a budget or with a wallet i would still recomend 5* and like always Sonic Electronics gave me a great product! SonicElectronicx for life!

At first i was a little apprehensive about this amp because i have never owned anything from Hi Fonics but after i read the reviews i was sold! I had it running two rockford fosgate hx2 10's in a slot ported enclosure wired at 1ohm and this thing pushed the subs HARD!!! This amp barely even gets warm! unfortunately one of the subs blew a coil so now i have it running just one in a different slot ported enclosure at 2 ohm and i am tempted to say it may be even louder; it flexes the roof of my little mazda truckl! Terrific amp for the price i recommend it to anyone!

This amplifier is more than expected! I have two RF P3's at 1 ohm and they slam hard and get low. I need another battery though. Just this amp is soaking up energy! I'm looking to get another one of these for each sub and wire em up at 2 ohm for the type of music I listen to and that means double the power! I can't wait! Highly recommend.

I have two diamond d6's, was using a rockford fosgate 1000rms @ 2ohm mono which is overkill. Well this amps rating of 900rms @ 2ohm is just as good and quite cheaper. Only complaint is the plastic end caps and the fact the gain has to be all the way up. Like the subsonic filter which not all amps have. Ordered on a sunday afternoon on my phone, received it following Wensday afternoon, super pleased on that fact, price, and my 3rd order and once again great experience. When I need audio products, i'll be returning to SonicElectronix. Thanks guys!

I really have nothing bad to say about this amp. Hifonics is a name of the past, yet based on reviews I decided to give the amp a try for the price. This amp pushes some raw power. I have it hooked up to a 10" Alpine Type R 10D4 pushing 900 watts @ 2ohm and she puts out a beautiful crisp clean sound. Great combination!

I hooked this amp up to a 10 inch alpine type R and it sounded real nice but when I turned it up for 1 song it fried the sub. The sub is only rated for 600 watts RMS so I guess I'm dumb. Not the amps fault, I don't think. The amp it replaced was a 500 watt alpine mdx. I think the hifonics sounds much better than the alpine amp. Now I have to buy a new sub though.

I got this installed yesterday and had only about 2 hours of full playtime from writing this review. POWERFUL amplifier indeed and priced so low! I used to have a Rockford Fosgate Punch BD500 amplifier, but sold it and decided to get something else. I'm very statisfied and pleased with my purchase. The subs I have powering are two 15" Orion XTR Pros in a sealed box and my whole car flexes including the windshield, doors, and even the hood. I'm afraid I might blow the subs so I'm hoping to go bigger to the Orion HCCA 10" sub soon to give a good match for the amp. Highly recommend this to anyone who wants loud audio and possibly the only amp ever needed if your just need a good car system. The sound quality of it too is amazing for bass. The only thing I wish all amplifiers would use is either flat head or philips screws instead of using a hex and the heat sinks on the side of the amplifier are sharp so try to avoid touching them when installing., but none the less this amp is awesome and never gets warm on me.
Definitely can't wait to play more. I love bass and this amp provides that need.

This is my second Hifonics amp. The first was the 1000D, but I have the 1200.1D on a pair of American Bass XD8's in a custom box tuned to 36Hz and this thing makes those 8's come alive. If you're looking for a strong amp, this is the one you need.

Picked up this amp on sale during christmas. I have it setup on my boat running a Pioneer 10" competition pro. This thing is a little too much power for the Pioneer. I tested it out on a pair of old school Lanzar DC15" (back when Lanzar was some top of the line car audio equip.) and they bumped hard.

BUY THIS BEAST! it has 1,200watts! all day. never hits protect mode. draws average amount of juice. (in my '90 civic) good sound. No problems with it in three months owned. Used and slightly abused daily. :) It is very stable at 1ohm!!! No lies in the products overview. Only con is that I lived so long without this amp. (I have it bridged down to 1ohm on (2) BRZ12SQD4 Hifonics subs) don"t be scared of this lesser known Name. I have the amp's gain at less than 1/2 but It still is heard blocks away!

I have this pushing 2 P3's @ 1 Ohm and it does its job very well! The amp is pretty beefy to and looks great! The sound quality it provides is more than what I was expecting and I expect this to last a very long time. I know it's going to sound even better when a get an aftermarket battery. I have my stock car battery and it still sounds great but I can't wait to give this amp the full power it deserves.

On my latest upgrade I decided I would probably need another amp and that the kicker 1000watt amp wasn't going to be able to push 4 subs at once so I bought this amp because i didnt want to spend all that money on another kicker amp. I wanted to test it out by trying to run all 4 subs to it because it is rated higher watts than my kicker. And these subs were putting out around 1700rms, i had 2 10" kicker CVRs and 2 kicker 8" L7s the amp pushed the subs really well at just half power. Id reccomend this amp to anyone, got here in 3 days too!

This product works excellent and correctly powers two 600rms 15" p3s i have. I hooked them up and it powers them perfectly. I would totally reccomend this for anyone that is looking to throw some serious power in their car. You may need to add a second battery though to stop the headlight dimming caused by the 1200rms.

I love this amp so much, its very sweet looking with the illuminated blue "Hifonics" logo, whenever people check out my system they always point it out, This things got power, I blew out a kicker Cvr 12 from this bad boy. When both those subs worked, it was stupid, everything rattled, my phone, mirror fell off, I have a cross that hangs from the mirror and thing never stopped shaking. My 01 jeep cherokee is the loudest system at school, wouldnt doubt town, This amp pushes subs well, real well. JUST FREAKIN GET IT!

This amp is incredible. Ordering another one for other sub. Would definitely recomend to every one. The brz1200.1 is by far the best amp I've ever owned and compared to my Alpine m1000 it's by far more superior. I hate the m1000 compared to this amp do buy and good luck.

This is a great amp. I would recommend to anyone that's building a system. I've been running mine for about 6 months now and never had any issues with it. It is pushing one Kicker 12" Solo-Baric L5 in a ported enclosure running at 1 ohm and it sounds great. I've played this thing for hours on end and it never gets hot. Just make sure you use at least 4 guage wiring and do your big three up front and this amp will never let you down!!!

I bought this amp to power my Alpine type-r 12's and this thing pushed them HARD. I bridged it to 1 ohm at 1200 watts the amp never overheated. Very strong amp, great quality, even better price!

I would have never said I would recommend a Hifonics Amp years ago, but I have to tell you this amp pounds my CVR15. I would highly recommend this amp to anyone on a budget that wants the vehicle to pound. In fact I will be ordering its brother the Zeus to do my mid high duty. These amps have changed over the years passed and are built with excellent quality. There are many useful controls to adjust the sound to your tastes.

I was a little sketchy when buying this amp but im glad i did. This thing pushes my 2 kicker cvr 12s like nothing set at 1 ohm. It has clear and clean sounding bass. I like how its the perfect weight and size. Would recommend this amp to anyone that wants great clean power for a good price.

I'm running it at 2 ohms, 900 W into two single voice coil pioneers and about knocked all the pictures off my wall in my house. I would highly recommend this amp for anyone. Has plenty of power and does not overheat.

This amp is the best. This is my first amp that worked, and all i can say is wow. I've heard many of my friends amps, and they do not compare at all. This amp is power hungry so i suggest getting an extra battery. Other than that get this amp, you will love it.

I have this amp running 2 Alpine Type R 12's at 2 ohms. It produces loads of clean, controlled power. Havn't had any issues in the 6 months I've had it. The logo lights up in a cool blue color, which is nice. But my main concern is its clarity and accuracy, which is great. This is my first Hifonics amp and I would recommend it to anyone considering it.

I currently have a kicker solo baric solo classic 10 in a sealed 2 cube box on a fusion 1000 watt mono amp. let me tell you, retail well over 600 and then i find this amp 3 times as good and alpine subs way better than my kicker. The brutus amp is a beast and i will be buying in the very near future. Overall great amp, great products, and excellent prices. Sonic Electronix is definately the place to shop and i tell every one of my friends and family and everybody to come here. Highly Recommend this site and amp.

Driving Morel 10" sub in 1.0 cu. ft. sealed cabinet. I am a SQ guy and driving this with the Brutus. It never heats up and gives me plenty of power to my 2 ohm Morel. I do not think I will be able to buy a better amp for twice the money. A lot of my friends use this with 2-4 subs to thump. I do not need that!!!! If you are in the market for a good mono amp this should be in the running.

This is a great amp. Good bang for the buck. It is totally worth the cost and will hold it's on. I have two Alpine 1243d subwoofers and the total RMS for both of them are 1200 watts rms. The amp can most definitely supply the power when it's needed. It also has a bass knob which is very convenient to turn up and down when needed. The amp also looks cools and great style and the Hifonics letters glow when the amp is on. If you are tryin to supply the power needed for the speakers then this amp is a must to have. It is also good to know the amp is CEA compliant so you know you are getting what you are paying for..

This amp has POWER. I got this hooked up to two(2) 10" Alpine Type-Rs in a Memphis ported box and WOW, once you set your levels and everything right this thing has lots of potential. Be prepared to fix rattles! I had to fix multiple rattles caused by this amp LOL this involved putting a rubber padding behind my license plate, and pieces of foam in various places. It also has a nice blue glow, which looks good at night, not tacky.

I have this amp. its the best. i was unsure about Hifonics, but this amp made me think different. I'm going to upgrade to a bigger Hifonics amp. but this did the job great. Looks cool with the led Hifonics brand.
It also says watts rated. No lie about that. A lot of power for 1 little amp. GOOD FOR THE PRICE!!! SONIC IS THE BEST.

I also had it powering 3 jl audio 12s, it did perfect. it sounds great, its simple and it looks so tight haha. I highly recomend this amp, just make sure your ears can handle it. ;)

I recently purchased this amp as a budget project for my son's first vehicle...I was not expecting too much for only $240.00.... after critically listeneing to his sytem, I found this amp is quite robust and does seem to have high damping at high volumes. For so much bang their is really very little draw on his stock charging system. Really plays out well through the low tones. HIghly recommend to anyone. GREAT AMP FOR THE PRICE AT SONIC!

I'm running a Fi SSD 15" at 2 ohms off this amp. I don't have everything cranked up to the max and it still manages to rattle my mirror off. It's a great amp. Not one overheat/shut off. Would recommend it for anyone looking to do a 2 ohm setup at around 800 watts. It was cheap to boot!

This amp is just simply amazing! I went from my Alpine MRP-M500 at 300RMS to this amp at 400RMS at 4 ohms and wow!.. this amp sounds way cleaner, much nicer and so much more powerful! I just bought this amp and ran it for about 20 minutes and was amazed. Cant wait to run it at 1ohm and really push the amp. Even with my weak electrical system at 12.8 volts it produces a lot of power and stays so clean!
Pros: Clean! Powerful Highly Efficient! (Doesn't dim my lights like my Alpine MRP-M500) Low Cost Great Looks Cons: Have yet to find any real cons..... the black metal at the edges is very sharp.. so do be careful!
