Battle Tested Design

Ever since the dawn of time man has been on the quest for power. Gladiators in particular are well known for using their strength to defeat their enemy. So why not concentrate this power for the good of the car audio world? The Gladiator Series by Hifonics is a robust and power hungry new line for 2012. These amplifiers boast a wide set of features such as a built in diagnostic mode that will detect shorted speaker leads, low impedance, dangerous high temperatures, DC shorts and will shut down the amp to help prevent damage. Pledge allegiance to your empire and prepare to be engulfed by the power of Hifonics.

Hooked this amp up to 4 kenwood performance series speakers for my doors and it works great! Doesn't heat up and hasn't blew out on me, so all in all I would say this was an awesome deal!

This is one of Hifonics best 4-channel amps power is very clean and strong i have it on Alpine Type-R 6/9 and 5 1/4 components by Alpine I have a Kicker crossover so I did not use the amps the amps gain is turned up a little over half way and I can barely stay in the car had a mb quart that I think was defective and sent that back to sonic and purchased this one I have no complaints what so ever the amp reminds me of some of hifonics old stuff it would be a wise decision for anyone to purchase this amp I have been into car audio for over 20 years and with this amp you are getting your moneys worth great amp dont no how long it will last but I think it is a very wwell designed amp will post a new review if anything changes .

This amp has unbelievable power. I have a pair of 6x9 two way and a pair of two way 6.25 rockford fosgates in my tacoma and it turns heads big time. My friends think I am running subs. The design of this amp along with its built in crossover features makes it a must have. My next purchase will be the GLX 1000.1 and a single p3 DVC rockford fosgate 10.
