Performance meets Value
The new 2010 Hifonics Brutus amplifiers are much more than a good-looking amplifier. Underneath the solid aluminum casing, you will find quality amplifier components that are sure to satisfy any compatible subwoofer. The new BRZ amplifiers have changed the heat sinks on each side to vertical aluminum fins. Since heat rises, these fins draw the heat up and allow it so effectively dissipate from the amplifier. The vertical aluminum heat sinks are located on two sides of the amplifier and effectively maintain the temperature of the amplifier to prevent any overheating. Combined with the other power/protection indicators and the 4-way system protection circuitry, the Hifonics Brutus amplifiers prove to be a safe, efficient, and reliable amplifier for your subwoofer.
Every Brutus amplifier is CEA-2006 certified. That means you can be confident in knowing that you are paying for real power. The wattage that the amplifier is rated at is the wattage that it will consistently produce and supply your subwoofer with. This is typically a feature just found on the higher-end, expensive amplifiers, however all the Brutus series amps are CEA-2006 compliant with a low price tag. By choosing one of these amplifiers, you will be high-grade performance and still have money left over. Performance meets value with the Hifonics Brutus amplifiers!

BAD A$$ AMP! I've ran it at both 1 AND 2 ohms and it slams hard either way, although it obviously hits hardest at 1. If your looking for both SPL and SQ than you've found it in this amp. I recommend beefing up your electric system by AT LEAST doing the BIG 3 UPGRADE and getting a couple STRONG subs that can handle this kind of power. This is not a small, novelty, amp that you get with a $250 system kit. This is a no bull ****, playen with the big boys, rattle your brains out, kick *** amp. I had my system turned up in my back yard while I had to run back in the house for something just to find that not only all the windows in the house rattling but also all the dishes in the kitchen cabinets rattling too! I totally recommend this amp with no question.

I installed this amp along with an auxiliary battery, cap, and big 3 running a single t2 15 and it impresses me everytime i listen to it. With the volume up it shakes the dash and whole car so bad i have to use the remote to turn down the volume or wait for the song to end, no joke. After listening for hours the amp is still relatively cool to the touch, even with it installed @1 ohm. My gain is a little over halfway turned up and bass boost is right at the lowest setting. No distortion or clipping. i also reviewed the rockford fosgate t2 15 dual 2 ohm on this site. might post another review after i get the set-up metered. I'm hoping for low to mid 140's. I also ran the amp on two type r 12s @4 ohms in a sealed box before the t2. The amp was barely turned up and made them slam even @4 ohms with phenomenal sound quality. Put the time and effort into a quality install and you wont be disappointed.

Just installed the amp a few hours ago. very nice finish and very easy and sturdy connections. I had a power acoustik 4000 bamf which was rated higher at 4 ohms then the hifonics, but the brutus was easily louder and cleaner. I am pushing a Fi Q 18 with the brutus and it is hitting cleaner and harder then ever. If i had a choice to buy this amp again i would do it with out thinking. i would recommend this amp to anyone.

I've been building great car audio systems since 1993. In the past I would only own Rockford Fosgate amps. All of that has changed cause of value I get with the Hifonics Brutus amps (More watts per dollar). This beast is whamming 8 12s (Pioneer TS-W309D4) @ 1 ohm. Everything shakes from the front bumper to the back bumper. The box is sealed @1.35 cu ft per woofer. The gain is all the way down. In 6 months of ownership, its never ran hot or shut down. I do suggest the big 3 upgrade and extra batteries cause it is power hungry. That is normal for what u get in return. I could write great things about this amp all day-everyday, but I'll stop here. Go get 1 and you won't be disappointed. P.S. If you are looking for a great amp for your highs, Try Hifonics Zeus ZXI Series.
