I bought the Hifonics GLX1000.1D 6 months ago and it has performed better than my expectations. Never has the amp cut off or given me any problems whatsoever. It performs to its specs and is true to what it says. I have it hooked up to 2 12 inch JL Audio W1v2s in a factory spec box and it SLAMS. sound quality is great and sends plenty of power to my subs, i would recommend Hifonic's amps again and again, great products

I have this amp hooked up to a 750w rms GCON saa 12 and it is easily able to supply more than enough power. It runs very cool and even after hours of use remains cool to the touch. Sufficient power without draining my battery when my car is not running. Very satisfied with this amp overall, only con is i had to remove the mesh wire because it would rattle at certain frequencies and the plastic frame for mounting it is a little flimsy.

Descent amp for the price.....I put this amp on 1 alpine 10" type r and I smoked the sub after a few days of abuse (wanted a newer, nicer sub anyway). Looks good, performs good, no problems with the amp. Great service and fast shipping from sonic....I will be a returning customer.

I got this amp to power my 15 Kicker L7s in a 2.6 cubic ft ported enclosure. I had a Vibe Audio Slick A7 before I got this one and let me tell ya, it's like I have a new system. This amp hammers the you know what out of that sub. Get it. You won't be disappointed.

I'm the king of research and discounts. I found the best amp at the best price and was recommended by one of their techs. They habe the best customer service and are very knowledgeable. On top of everything when they are not the lowest price they will match it! Amp is great and powers the two 10" subs excellent in the back of my Ford F-150 superb.
