Customer Ratings & Reviews

OK wire if you like red wire

I received this wire because when I bought my Image Dynamics speakers from Sonic the description said it included speaker wire in the box, but when I received them there was none. I called Sonic and they sent this wire to make up for the error. I later called Image Dynamics and found out that they no longer include speaker wire with their speakers so Sonic if you are reading this you can update your description and pictures on the ID speakers to NOT show speaker wire. For the record I bought the Image Dynamics CTX65cs and the CTX4 speaker sets. Great speakers by the way. Thanks Sonic for all your great products and sound advice, no pun intended:)

Quality Product

Works very well with my Rockford Fosgate sub system in my car.

good deal!

Pretty decent value for the price. Worked out great, thanks.

Usable

The wiring has done me right so far but the only thing I don't like is the speaker wires. You have to carefully split it so the wire doesn't show. Other than that minor thing everything was great and a great value!

price is right

the price is right for this setup. the ground wire and the power wire are to big for my amp but i made them fit. better to have to much than not enough so if i upgrade to a larger amp it will be fine.

nice sound

very good product at a pretty good price lowest i could find on net and sounds good

Accessories for product

Just what I needed and made installation so much easier. Thanks

works great

Hooked it up with an re audio srx 12 and it sounds great very very happy.

decent box

i bought this box for the newest alpine type r.... lets say it sounded decent but not good enough for me, i have had many sound systems and this didnt sound so good with the type r..... if your decide to get a type r id go with a 3.0 cu ft box tuned 32-38hrtz for the best deep loud sound quality

awesome products

I run 2 12inch audiobahn exursions on this amp and it pushes them very well. The size is perfect not to big and fits right unerneath the seat or small space. The best part is it stays pretty cool even after running most the day.

Great Solid Box

This box is built very well. It's perfectly tuned for the Alpine SWR-1243D Type-R that I also got from Sonic Electronix. The SPL of this combo is ridiculous in the trunk of my '09 Civic Si Sedan, and it leaves more than 3/4" of my trunk space left for other junk. Definitely recommend. With a set of banana plugs also ordered, I still only spent less than $225 which includes the price of shipping for these three items. Speaking of which, I ordered in the early hours of Tuesday (switching over from Monday) and I got the these three items delivered to my door by 11AM Wednesday! There's no way you can find a better deal than that! Now all I need for this combo is some serious Dynamat to keep everything from rattling apart.

Great Box!

This is a nice box for the price. I normally build my own boxes but I didn't have much extra time and it is too cold out to build one anyways, so I bought this one and I'm sure glad I did. Realistically to buy a sheet of MDF, spray adhesive, bottle of wood glue, nails, and carpet costs about the same as this box and it is already made. Sure it is prefab, but its a very good prefab enclosure. This is real 3/4 inch mdf and the port is tuned pretty low too. I would guess like 34-36 Hz or so. Very solid construction and rounded off port on the inside. Carpet looks great. Terminals are nice too, although they are plastic fasteners, they will hold up just fine. I have a Phoenix Gold rsdc in this box and it slams! I can feel the bass pounding my chest. If you want a nice loud box, this is the box you want. Exceeded my expectations by far!

Not correct box volume

The box is advertised to have 1.8 cubic feet of volume. It's not, the actual volume when taking into the account of the wood thickness and the ports is 1.3 cubic foot. Plus when you add a sub in it that will also take up some volume so you can count on 1.1-1.25 cubic feet with a sub mounted. The 1.8 cubic foot might be true if their talking about total volume of the outside but that is compleatly irrelevant. The only volume that is important is the inside of the box. And yes the difference between 1.8 and 1.3 is a lot and will make a difference

Belva

I have 2 of these in my car but they do the job with Type-R's no complaints

Bela Sub Box 1st 12 box

The box is built great, sturdy. I didn't pay attention to the overall dimensions the box is bigger than your average 12" box.
So if your looking to put this box in your car make sure you pay attention to the dimensions. But if your building a subwoofer for home or small club this box will do the job.

good wires

I like the wire kit I got with my amp it seems to be holding up goo it handles the power of the amp I got but I would of gave it 5 stars all the way around but I wold of like the ground at less 2 more feet for good use but over all its a nice kit

Good stuff

Great product last a long time good value for the money.

awesome subwoofer box

This subwoofer box is great and produces a lot of loud bass. However it is huge so make sure you have enough room.

A+ product

Fast Fast shipping. For all you guys that are looking for a clean box with great value and durability this it. I'm using it to support my 12" Olympus Series Dual 2 ohms Subwoofer (OLM-1612). Buy it !!!!!!!

Sick box.

It's pretty massive. Carpet matched my trunk which is a win. Screw terminals are not the best but they work.

Cable

Good product fast shipping awsome seller... keep up the good work.....

Use to purchase this all the time

Belva brand is good affordable material when starting out but through out time cca corrodes if you have the money buy ofc cable

great box

I bought this belva 12in box last month and put a 12 in kicker comp r in it whick I'm putting 800 watts rms to it and it sounds great. This box is also listed at a great price.

well built

this is a very solid, well built box. the box is sealed well at all seams also and made of good quality mdf. I have a kicker cvr in it and it sounds great. great choice for a single ported enclosure. can\'t go wrong. by the way, i think it has great binding posts. good value, it won\'t disappoint.

Perfect kit

Comes with everything you need. Works good with my 800w system

By Chad on May 14, 2020 Verified purchase

Nice product

This box is a very nice box especially for the money. Gives a crisp clean sound and doesnt matter what type of music you are listening to.

Great box

I put an Audiobahn Alum12X in it with a 200 watt RMS amp. I had to widen the hole a little to get it to fit. It is nice and loud. I put it in the back of my Honda Element so the port fires under the rear seat toward the driver seat. For the cost it cant be beat. It would have taken me hours to put one together. What a time saver. This is the first box I have ever purchased. I usually just make my own.

decent sub box

Bought this box for my son and put a sony 12 and visonic amp and it hits pretty hard and very loud but not as tight as the sealed box he had so he loves it because he's a teenager !

Solid well built box.

This box is great. ! I have a Power Acoustik GW3-12 in this box and it really pushes some air! All my mirrors are blurry while im driving nice clean bass

great

hooked it up to re audio srx 12 and it sounds great

Sounds great

This box sounds great with my alpine 12. The terminals were easy and the box is put together well.

Good extra fine wire

This is excellent speaker wire. One wire has round insulation while the other has square insulation making it easy to identify hot and grounds. My only installation problem was I didn't order enough. I needed a quantity of 2 just to wire a single cab pickup.

Good Box for Cheap

I needed a box for a C2 Audio Threatcon 4 subwoofer. C2 cuggests a box near 2 cubic feet tuned to 35 hz. This one is tuned to 36 as a I recall so it's pretty close. It's nicely constructed. Wish that it were slanted so that I could put it up against the rear seat of my car and that it were tuned a bit lower. For 35 bucks I couldn't build it for less.

great buy

my brother bought this for his kenwood 12. it sounds like he has 2 12s. the crazy thing is he is only pushin 220watts rms. box makes all the sound. get this if you need a great box

Great

I bought this box for my Rockford P3. The box takes up half of my trunk but it slams my sub. You can't find a better deal on a ported box like this anywhere

works great

this box works and sounds great if your sub calls for the air space buy it

Belva sub box

I have owned this subwoofer box for 30 days now and it sounds great and looks great. The porting on the box makes it sound even better. And is the best box for the money

Outstanding quality & Price

Would recommend, sturdy construction with insulation.
Improved bass quality, w/new box I could hear bass notes that were missing before.

Bad.

I bought this box a while back and one of the speaker wire terminals is loose causing the connection to be weak.. its been loose since I got it but it just recently started causing problems.

pleased

I bought this to go with my orion xtr pro. it makes the deeps better mids louder and highs annoying. Make sure if you buy this product to tighten the connectors a little more. i put my system together but damn near broke one of the connectors when tightening by hand. Other than that i am very pleased with this product. Sonic Electronix never fails me! I recieved it in three days from KY to WI!

1SV12

I bought this box for an Alpine Type R 12. I usually build all my own ported boxes but I decided to save some time and buy this one. The box is built from quality 3/4" MDF, the carpet looks great, and the seams are well caulked. What you really should know when buying this box, it is around 1.5 cubic feet net, and tuned to around 35hz. A little small for most 12's in vented applications, but the 35hz tuning was a pleasant surprise. Most prefab boxes I've seen are tuned >40hz and can't quite hit the low notes. Overall, definitely a great value and a decent design.

Not to bad but could be bigger

Got this box to house a American bass xfl 12". I needed a bigger box but I have a small trunk so my options are limited. my 12" beats in this box just not at full potential. good box for pre-fab

great box

This box is great and you wont find such a nice one at this price anywhere.

single 12 inch vent ported box

Bought this box a while back and must say for the price its a great box. Ive looked at other higher end box's and they are way over priced. Good construction and seems sturdy. I would recommend this box to anyone who wants a single sub system.

works well

works well with my alpine 12". installed the sub into it myself, very easy. good value. go sonic!

great box great price

u will never find a better ported box for this cheap. it is very well built. sadly it is currently serving as a nightstand in my bedroom due to the sub no longer living there lol

Great Speaker Box

Makes a big difference in the bass. This box is good for a smaller type of trunk.

Awesome box

Looks attractive, feels sturdy, wasnt expensive. Perfect for my memphis 12. I actually ended up with the exact box except black.. so i assume the picture is wrong, although i'd rather a black box anyway.

Good wire

This wire is great speaker wire. I like the way it looks and works great.

great box for the price

It sounds great. and looks nice. fits well in my trunk also

Worked well

Was used for mtx 9512-44 worked well for what I needed it for...

Awesome

Great sub box, looks good. Its heavy, heavier than i expected. Lined with the poly fiber stuff as well

Strong Box !!!

A well made , strong, & nice looking box .Being glued then screwed is the only way for a sub box, to be made , with the vibbrations it must enduere ,this one pass the test .I have recomended them .

not the best for a type r

its pretty loud but tends to sound kind of sloppy at some notes. if your new in the audio game i would get it but i wouldnt recommend it. if you want to save a little money id go with a sealed 1.0. on the other hand if you want crazy loudness id go with a building your own ported box or you can find a good prefab tuned at 32-38 hz. but im happy with it but soon to change box.

box

this is a great box, great build quality. great port flow and absolutely no port noise. great box

Great buy!

Matched the air space to my boston g2 12'' sub have no complaints at all
sturdy, clean !

Great value

Ive had this box for a good 6 months and havent had any problems. Very durable and built right. Im running an RE 12 and an RE amp in a tahoe and this thing slams! It would be hard to build one for this price. Only complaint i have is that it stinks like they heat treated the mdf or something. My truck smelled like a forest fire for a good month or two.

Sub Box

Great box! Excellent quality, especially for the price. Have had it for 6 months now and it looks like new. Very impressed for how cheap the price was!

Great Box

The works perfect. The box is more durable than i thought it was going to be. Just the right size that i needed. I even put some poly-fil inside to enhance the sound of the subwoofer. Great price for a great box!!

Great so far!

Bought it six months ago to house an Adire Brahma 12" (old-school). I needed 3/4" MDF and around 2sq.ft., ported... Even with shipping it was about half the price of buying a similar box locally, because all my local shops are rip-offs...Sonic can't be beat for price!

So far, everything is great! Only thing that's failing is the window trim on my Pathfinder. X)

One hell of an upgrade

went from sealed .8 cubic foot box to this ported box for more volume. the difference was night and day. i have scaled back the gain on my amp and dropped the sub volume to 0 on my deck, and this box still provides so much volume i'm afraid the back glass will fall out. simply unbelievable. fyi, alpine type x and hifonics bxi1606d, 1100w rms @ 2 ohm.

THE BEST

This box is the best if you want a ported box. It just has everything you need for a well cheap price but the box is just amazing. I put my kicker cvr 12 and that thing bumps, am definitely buying another of the same box for my other kicker.

Okay enclosure

I bought this box because it was a lot bigger than the previous box I was using. I have a Pioneer Premier TSW3001-D2 in this box and it still needs more than 1.8 cu ft to show its true potential. Overall its a good box and it does have good sound quality, but I am not hitting any of those low notes with it that I really want.

Excellent value

The speaker wire is a good price for the length and gauge.

Great box for a prefab

I have a RE Audio SXX 10” in it. Sounds great in the box tight and clear. Bo is tuned to 36hz. Great box.

great box

nice well built. only thing it lacks is being pre wired. so you might have to spend a few bucks on connectors. but it is nice. buy it

im running a dvc 12inch pioneer champion series off a fli acid amp its 600watt rms 2ohm mono... bumps

Great value!

This is a great well built box. I have an RE12" sub in it and it produces the sound that I wanted. Great box recomend to all!

nice box for good price

product is durable, produces good sound and is a very good deal

great box!

When I got the box, it was broken at the face plate by the port. It was in the bottom corner. It wasn't too bad so I decided to drop the sub in anyways.
I have an nvx sub in it and it sounds really good. The lows are deep.
Overall it's a good quality box and sounds great

good box

This box does what it says. Make sure to use the right screws as this is soft wood and will strip out.

Solid box for the price!

This is a good solid box for its value, very study and looks decently sharp. obviously there are better boxes out there, but for this price you cant as for much more. i'd recommend it to anyone trying to build a system with out big spending. great product, thanks to sonic for low prices and super fast shipping as always

Good deal.

I purchased this for the value. Everything you need for a simple single amp install in one package. Good quality with good value, thanks.

Great Value Kit!

I would highly recommend this package to anyone looking to do a cheap install, i have friends who got these before and its nice, simple and cheap!
Never had any issues, great value!

By Craig on October 15, 2016 Verified purchase

Ok. not the best kit.

The eyelet connectors are flimsy and the speaker wire is hard to separate. When it does it exposes some of the copper. Otherwise the kit is ok.

By Lloyd on December 10, 2015 Verified purchase

great amp

This is great amp I have it running 2 kicker 12s and it hits hard in my 2006 tahoe I love it....Never gets hot and its clean looking with a great price......BUT MAKE SURE TO INVEST IN A VERY GOOD BATTERY OR CAP

Ok value

Good product , but not enough speaker wire to wire two front door speakers in a scion xb. I guess it would have been enough if I had run one of them with the power wire instead of running on the other side of car, but everybody knows that's a bad idea due to engine noise. You would think they would take that into consideration. Also not a big fan of the square and round speaker wire very hard to separate and strip without exposing bare wire.

Great value

Does the job does what it needs to do. It was packaged nicely.

great value

Excelent amp, works great, have it in an 02 Escalade EXT running two JL 12W3's in a JL box, just pounds :)

You get what you pay for....

Bought this kit for my 650 watt rms amp. Not true awg 4 guage, but close.jacket is pretty thick.all wires flexible. Reached under the back seat of my 2008 silverado crew cab. But not a whole lot of slack if your going to a trunk. Fuse is ok... ive seen better and worse. Bottom line, if your on a budget and running 800 rms or under, this will work fine.

Box works great.

Nice ported box. Helps get those deep tones. Very happy with the product.

Winner, hands down

When i bought this amp, i was skeptical because of the long hated line of Hifonics products.

When i got this amp, i hooked it up to my Kicker 15" L7... i had the amp at a 2 ohm load giving the L7 a good 750 rms and damn... It sounded like that L7 had a full on 1000 rms load going into it.. I had to tape down various plastic pieces in the back of my car and secure my trunk with padding...

Get...this..amp. Also check out the 1200.1D brutus series.. That is my current amp!

VERY GOOD AMP.

I have this amp pushing 2 Memphis 15's and this amp hasn't got hot at all! Played music for 6 hours str8 pounding and when i touched the amp it was just warm.

Amazing amp

I have this paired with a 12" Rockford Fosgate P3 subwoofer and this little amp gives it more than enough power! I highly recommend these Hifonics amps!!

Great value

Bought it to try out but is a really good power rating and not cheaply made for price and is really flexable

Perfect!

Was surprised with the quality of the copper and actual size of the wires compared to other cheap brands like Schoshe. Worth every penny.

true power

Wicked little amp its a true 1000 rms I have it on a 2010 Rockford fosgate T1D215 in the high output vent box running in 1 ohm I swear I think if I turned the gain past 3/4 I could make that T1 15 start popping. It hits just as hard as my buddys 2 l7 15inch with a Rockford fosgate 1000.1 amp. Great great amp.

wire kit

I have used sonic for years and all their products worked as promised, knowledgeable staff, very good prices and you can depend on their products stats being correct including watts and specs!!

Awesome quality

I have a Chevy Astro van it's hard to get speakers to thump in that big of an area. But my Hifonics amp with my two 12s, Boss speakers, really do the job. I love the quality sound i get with them. Thanks.

Great wires!!

After reading reviews and most importantly watching the video Sonic posted with this product, I decided to give it a shot for my Cerwin Vega VPAS-12. The wires are exactly as described, true 4 gauge, not all insulation like the other brands. The fuse block is solid and easy to set up. I was worried it may not fit the VPAS connectors since they mention 8 gauge, but it works and it is holding in no problem.

The only thing I did change was the actual battery and ground terminals, they seemed weak, so i chose something stronger and all is well.

Thanks again Sonic!!

For the price, this installation kit is great. You can spend 4 times the amount for killer connections but if budget and functionality are key, this is the best.

Nice enclosure.

Bought this box and put a Pioneer Champion pro series 12" in it. Only pushing about 400 watts to the 600 watt Pioneer, but sounds nice and clean. Hits the low notes well. I really like the durable gray carpet, (doesn't tear and get dirty as fast as other black boxes I've had in the past). Box is well built and I like that it has pre-filled walls inside.

Great valule

Great quality wire, plenty enough for the job. Works great and made my install a breeze.

awesome box

I have a cerwin Vega vmax that I've had in a homemade sealed box for years. It sounded great or so I thought. So I bought this box because I wanted my sub to get louder and wow what a difference. I could not believe what it did for my sub. I didn't change a thing but the box and it slams so hard u can feel it in your body. Could not be happier with this box. Appears to be good quality, mine came with a metal belva name badge at top left of box. They even painted the inside of the port black. Long story short lol, get this box.

FORGET THE RE SUBS

I've used this same sub box for 4 different brands of subwoofers and they all fit perfectly. This is a GREAT prefab box UNLESS you're wanting to use an RE sub. I bought this box with the RE Sxx and the basket is bigger than the opening of the box, so it won't work without modifications. And the only reason to buy a prefab box is not having to go through the hassle of making modifications. So it's a GREAT box, will be the best prefab you'll find for this price, just DON'T buy it if you're wanting to use an RE subwoofer.

Nice Box.

Well built box. I like the durable black carpet lining. Holds up well and doesn't tear easily like other boxes I've had. Check how much room you have in your trunk because it has a good amount of cubic space. I still have plenty of room in my 07 Honda Accord. Love that it's pre-filled. Have a pioneer 12" champion series sub inside and pairs up nicely with this box. Sounds clean and the lows hit nice.

awsome amp

This amp is great i had a 2400 watt amp an i was trying to get somthing smaller but my suprise it hits harder tgen my othe amp i have it pushing two 12 inch pioneer champion series an my whole car shakes

great amp and value

I've got 2 12' dual 4 ohm audiopipes hooked up in my van and it makes them pound pretty hard actually have people turning heads when I drive by .definitely would recommend to my friends and planning on getting the hfi 1500.1d next and hook up 4 12' to it

great vale

I had this amp for about 6 moths . it was a great amp for the price. i never had any problems with hifonics amps at all a great buy.

Wired out

Great product, great price does excalty what I needed it to do... would recommend for anyone who needs to get there AMP hooked up properly.... comes with everything you need to do the job right

By Edward on February 18, 2020 Verified purchase

Bad A**

I have this amp pushing 2 Kicker CVR 12's at 2ohm in my 95 Civic Sedan. This amp is Nasty!! My subs are currently in a sealed box that is a bit to small for the subs and it still pounds hard, everything rattles. Building a ported box to specs and they will hit even harder.
The amp never over heats (and its tucked in an area with almost no air flow).
I very highly recommend this amp to anyone. Its cheap and has more than plenty of power!!

Hifonics - HFI1000.1D

great amp the power is like no other running a kicker 450rms sub box and my Tahoe shakes. sonic is a great place to buy all of your electronic needs shipping is fast.

Powerful little Amp

I was first pointed to this amp when I was looking for a monoblock to power my 2 Rockford P1's when I first got into the whole Car Audio thing. It was cheap compared to a lot of the other amps, and the specs were better than the 2 channel Kenwood I had running my subs before.

When I got it, I must say I was a little surprised at its size. Relatively small compared to my previous one, but I had my car stereo enthusiast neighbor help me hook it up, and tune everything just right. The difference was like night and day. Maybe it was because the "professionals" who hooked up my stuff at ABC Warehouse were not so professional, or maybe this is just a much better amp, but regardless it worked great and it has been for nearly 2 years now.

I'm currently powering 2 ten inch Alpine Type R's with this 1000 watt monoblock and they still sound amazing, and right around what you need for them.

The only downside that comes to mind is that rap songs, or any song with a lot of continuous heavy bass, at loud volumes, can cause the amp to shut off and go into protect mode. This really isn't such a bad thing, as it protects the product you paid for, but its just a little inconvienent because I can't get the thing to go back to normal without turning my car off, and then back on again. I figured turning the headunit off, and turning the power off to the amp, then letting it sit 15 minutes would do the trick, but no luck.

Still works great, and I just tuned the gain down a tiny bit so that doesn't happen anymore.

Really no complaints. Good solid amp, just the right amount of power, and it was quick and easy to swap out my 2 channel amp for this one. So for 150$, this is a steal to me.

Great Amp for price

This is a great amp for the price. I have 1 pushing 2 PowerBass 2XL subwoofers and it shakes my whole car. I even have some cheap 4 gauge wire. Soon i'll be getting soon a Kicker amp kit. I'm pretty sure it will sound way louder.

Great amp

I've owned this amp for a few months and I love it. I have yet to experience an overheat problem even during extended bass sessions at full volume. I also just love look of it and the way the mounts are set in the back (while slightly annoying during install) make for a very clean looking install.

Get It

Got this amp and it works just fine with my 2 12" kickers.

Great product

This product works great. Sound quality is definitely good, and I would definitely recommend this for anyone who's looking for a ported box.

Great amp for the price

I have this amp hooked up to 2 12' kicker CVR's wired at 1OHM and they pound hard. Great durable amp never overheats or shut off randomly. Great for the money i would highly recommend this amp~~~!@~!@~!

Nice little amp!

I needed an amp to power two NVX DVC 10" subs but also take up very little space. This thing over delivers, it's compact enough it can very easily fit under a seat or in other tight spaces and is very well constructed.

I have it pushing out about 350 RMS @ 1ohm to my two 10's as that's their RMS rating, and they absolutely pound my car. The amplifier and subs paired together make super crisp and clean bass, no drool and no fuzzy sound. Very snappy tight bass but believe me this amp has no problems feeding my subs when deep lows from music kicks in, it gets amazingly low and has no problems with overheating at all even at high volumes with rock or hip hop, and it's in my spare tire area with a pastic/carpeted cover on top of it.

Overall I give this amp a 5/5 because it delivers everything it's rated for, has great SQ and SPL capabilities, great looks and design.

Buyer beware

I Purchased this hifonics amplifier and had my whole system professionally installed at a local shop. I Received a call later that evening that the amplifier was toast right out of the box. I even visited the shop a little later, and sure enough the amplifier was not outputting power. Either way i learned my lesson and replaced the hifonics product with a 500 watt kicker amp that was inspected at the factory and passed all quality control tests. Chalk this up to either bad luck or a sketchy product. Seemed like quite a few people liked this product though and had good luck with it.

Awesome

This amp pushes my 2 concept subwoofers hard and rattles my Dakota so much!

Love it!

Bought the sub box about a month ago and it was easy to install, no problem with my 12" sub. Looks beautiful and professional and my sub sounds great and non-distorted.

Decent box

Id revomend this box for anyone that doesnt need a custom box

Holy wow

This has thoroughly beat on my 12" Volfenhags and my 15" Diamond D6. The power coming out of this tiny, low-end amp is unbelievable, not to mention it stays cool even when maxed out. Granted, judging by the built-in fuse, it can theoretically only push out 960W max, but for the price, how can you beat that?

Great amp, Low price.

Well built amp with good guts. Pushes two Earthquake TNT-12s's, Off of a XSscorpion 4 gauge wiring kit. The setup has window flex.

Powerful

I have to say I was shopping for a while trying to find an amp that would give me the power i need with SQ. although this amp is not CEA 2006 compliant at 14.4 volts it will put out the rms it claims. It makes my 2 10" in a ported box bang hard but also sound good. The amp does not overheat at all for me.
I have a friend that has the hifonics colossus amp with two 12" MTx 9500
And that amp makes those subs work. I'm just giving that as an example that surprisingly enough hifonics is top quality stuff. If you have concerned if hifonics is what they advertise I can yes it is. To tell you the truth it's the name when you buy kicker or alpine.. A lot of people have those brands so that's why most people will over look hifonics. It's a win win if you buy hifonics you save money. A lot of money then take that extra money and upgrade to a better sub or maybe a nice pair of infinity component speakers. The last thing I will say

Hifonics does make cea 2006 compliant amps and either way you can't go wrong

Best Bang for your buck!

I was a little skeptical of Hifonics because of the power they claimed with such a low price, but i took the gamble and I couldn't be happier. I have it hooked up to 2 pioneer TS-W308D4's wired down to 1 ohm. It powers them very well. I have absolutely no doubt in my mind that these things do rated power. My 2 12's are louder than my friends 4. I had them metered and hit a 143! I'm about to buy a Brutus BRZ2400 for a set of 18's. Definitely will stay with Hifonics for a while!

Is power what you demand? Then power is what you'll get

This baby will supply you with all the power you need. It's one of the better if not best bang for buck amplifiers you can purchase here. It's very efficient, compact, durable and powerful. I've had this for 6 months and it still runs like new. I can't be any happier. However, I will be upgrading to a stronger amp from Hifonics after I buy an additional subwoofer for my system.

Pros:
PRICE
Big power
Long lasting
Small
Runs cool

Cons:
NONE

Tips:
Make sure you break-in the amp. Not doing so can cause pre-mature failure.

The most bang for the buck

You can't buy a better amp for the money. This is a true high power low dollar amp. Have this small footprint beast wired at a 2 Ohm load to an alpine 12 swx-1243d, and hold on this pair hits hard.

Good price and well made

I was looking to down grade to a single 12” and this box was a perfect purchase for what I needed with still having space in my trunk for other items.

Very nice budget enclosure

Been running an Alpine tye R in a sealed box for a while and have been OK with it. I have tried this 12 in a couple of other prefab vented boxes and sound quality was terrible. One box was similar in size to this but was tuned way too high and was nothing but boom. The other box was much bigger and tuned to around 32 hertz and was a little better but had absolutely no upper bass and an overly pronounced low bass impact.(very uneven response even after much time spent on setting adjustments) With only a day of listening to this particular enclosure, I have to say it's much more musical and really surprised me. It's blending with my components much better and has the advantage over the sealed box of digging into the very low bass with more authority. I'm hesitant at this time to say it's actually sounding "better" than the sealed box but at this price point you can't go wrong here. Construction is good overall and my box had no cosmetic flaws at all. My recommendation is, if you want a relatively smooth sounding vented enclosure that won't break the bank and looks real nice then this one's for you. Really, at this price point it's a steal and I highly recommend.

Quality > price, must buy!

I bought this for my nephews new civic. He has a kicker CVX that requires 1.8-2.5 cu ft of airspace. I purchased it through sonixelectronics eBay page for 44 w free shipping. Pairs with the sub and matching 300w kicker amp it produces 42hz of clean clear bass. The beauty of ported boxes is that you can get clean low punchy bass with minimal wattage (assuming you make sure your speaker is wired correctly so the resistance matches what your amp can push efficiently). Look up the wiring diagram for your speaker and amp then match the lowest stable ohm possible. Matching the ohms resistance is more important than just getting the most wattage and your system will last longer and endure less stress. Ok now back to the box. It comes carpeted in either black or dark grey and comes with a nice layer of insulation inside which helps produce the low clear bass and the knock behind it. It also comes with a removable manufacturer tag if you don't like the look. The box has really nice terminals that accept banana plugs which I highly recommend, not only do they look nice they make the connections easier. Overall the quality and value of this box far outweighs the cost. I really couldn't get over how nice it was for the price and when I install systems where only one speaker is involved I am now recommending this box if they do not want or cannot afford a custom box. You won't be disappointed with this box, & for any reason you don't like it send it right back to them.

Good box, was looking for something tuned a little lower.

Well built box for the coin. I did cut out the polyfil just so the port was clear, but left the rest in. It's got a good universal sound and is a lot more pronounced than the sealed box I had before. I have a 12" NVX VCW dual 4 ohm, bridged down to 2 ohm running a Hifonics Brutus 1000.1D
At max I am getting 700 watts RMS, but probably less. The sub is broken in properly and sounds great in the box, but would hit harder with another 300-500 watts RMS. I have my subsonic filter set to about 25HZ. I think the sub plays a little lower than the box is tuned for, not sure, but I think the lows could be better if the box was tuned lower for the particular sub I picked.. NVX tech recommended 2.25 cu. ft. @ 30 HZ. I will be building a new box when I can and tune it closer to 30HZ with a bigger amp. Like I said, this gets me by fine and I have no complaints!

Solid box

The box is solid and good quality plus it came with polyfil. The carpet on the box was peeling around the port though. Wasn't enough to me to send it back but still.

Sounds great

I was skeptical at first for I was going to go with the box made by Rockford for my P3 12'' but decided to go with Belva to save a few extra bucks and man I am happy I did. Its not to big and looks great aswell as sounds amazing for my Rockford P3.
Would recommend to anyone interested in this product!

great value

This is an awesome box. I have 2 of them holding my twelves. Very loud deep bass. Would definitely buy again.

Decent budget box

I put a 12" Alpine Type R in this box. The carpet near the port needed a little extra glue to properly hold it down but not a huge problem. The R definitely likes it. Gets nice and loud and the box doesn't have any funny rattles or noises. The tuning is pretty good. Would prefer 34-35hz.

GOOD ONE

Bought this amp a year ago.
Initially to power my Murano 2009 withKicker 10cvr10-4 2010 Comp Vr Series 10 Inch 4 Ohm Dual Voice Coil 800 Watt Car Subwoofer at 2 ohms

I have got this sub setup in 1Cbuft sub box laced with poly fill cloth inside stringed at 2 ohm in my Nissan Murano sourced from Rear speakers at full range.
The hifonics Amp is pumping out 400 W RMS to it exactly hitting the sweet spot.(Mind these are marketing wattage rates on the amps)
I did got the confirmation from Kicker and Hifonics to arrive at the sweetspot.

WOHAAA .. more than enough bass that my ears can take ;-) (Again depends on your hearing levels ;))

I am generally running the car stereo from my AUX MP3 player and some times CD. This amp and sub combination rocks.
I keep the bass level in general at half way on my deck and sub level at 3/4 TO Rock the car.

Later I have upgraded my Amp to Hifonics zx2000 1.d and put an existing Sony 300 w woofer in Murano and shifted the 1000.1d setup to My Accord 2012. As accords Sony amp was anemic and Sony sub required more power to push it to rocking levels. You know what the same rocking performance repeats in Accord too.

One word of caution. your speaker needs to be setup at 2 ohms to rock the hell out of sub. at 4 ohms the amp is not powerfull enf.

Hope it helps.

Not bad

First time bought this amp. For this price it has very high CP value.

great amp

highly Recommend this amp I have it pushing a Autobahn alum 10n and it gives the sub all it can handle would buy it again

Great amp

This amp is amazing, have it running two Kicker CVR Aluminized 12s at 2 ohms, and they bump hard! My mirror looks like a huge blur. Only got a little warm after and hour of playing in a hot garage. Light up label is an aesthetic plus. Make sure to read the manual when connecting speaker wire! Perfect for 4 guage wire, I suggest a Rockford Fosgate amp kit.

Overall, its a great amp

HFI 1000

This Amp Is Worth Every Penny. Have It Powering 2 12" Rockford P3's And They Hit So Hard

good box for the money

dropped in an old rockford hx2 12con 800w and it booms good after amp and crossover adjustments.

Good box true to size, adds lots of bass for the woofer

Nice box

I have had this box for about a month now. I am very pleased with it. I have an Orion XTR Pro 122 in it and it's very low notes. I have no complaints

The best

This boc is the best i have gotten in long time from 100w to 50000w .. This thing does it all..looks size design the best tbing about it is the sounds it put out ..good job

Has worked great for 6 months so far with no problems

I have had this amp for 6 months with my Boss sub and it hits great. Light on the amp is nice and for the price you can't go wrong. Overall I am pleased with my purchase.

Gotta Love It

This amp is so sweet! i ran it super hard all day and never even changed temperature. It refuses to get hot. It looks super cool too. The HF lights up blue and looks awesome at night. i am running an RE Audio SEX12D2 and this thing hits so hard! i love it!

I'm amazed

I purchased this box for my friend. He has a 1st Generation Alpine Type R 12" subwoofer on 300 watts and his system honestly scared me because it was that loud. He seemed very happy when I got this for his birthday, and it makes me happy too. Very fast shipping and easy to install. Loved the cotton inside the box as it helps up the cubic feet inside for the sub to operate in. 5 stars.

Great Box

Put a 500 watt sub in this box and wow. It sounded so good playing at any volume. The box is sturdy and good quality. The sub did match up with the box. The polyfill inside the box makes a big differance also.If you have a 12 and need this size cu ft air space box this one will not disappoint.

Highly recommend for that price have it running a Audiobahn 10 it slams hard and has yet to overheat and shutdown. Sonic Electronix delivered it when they said they would on time.

Great AMP

Excellent amp ended up selling it to a friend to get a bigger one (2000 watt) because it sounded so well, just needed more power. Couldnt be happier for what you get for the price.

Great

I love it. I get more bang for my buck. Will purchase again to put in another car that I own.

great amp

Would highly recommend Hifonics amps. They are under rated, more power than what they say i have this amp slammin a 15" Power Acustic sub in an Acura Integra love it.

Can't go wrong!

Great amp, runs soooo cool, and puts out some great bass, clean bass too. Highly recommend this amp. And as a plus, the lit up logo looks BA, just sayin.

Awesome all around!

Awesome amp! i have one hooked up to 2 12" jl audio w6v2 @ 1 ohm in a ported box in my Chevy Suburban can not tell you how hard it hits! Amp has never went into protection mode never had a problem lets just say i barely have the remote bass knob turned 1/4 of the way and it just hits so hard a course its JL Audio subs but this is the perfect match! Definitely highly recommend this amp if your looking for a 1 ohm 1,000 watt amp! Highly satisfied customer! Can't beat the price either!

banging

Bought this amp to power a 12' mtx t9500 that my friend gave me i was a bit disappointed in myself my friend told me to buy a 2000 watt amp i bought this it barelly powered my sub cause i ordered the wrong amp. But this amp still banged like crazy in my truck i would recommend this amp to anyone on a budget and wants to get crazy loud bass. I myself returned it for the 1500.1d wich is what i should have bought but didnt listen. My bad. But Sonic Electronix exchanged it for the other one after paying the difference this is my 6th purchase from them never had any regrets. I love Sonic Electronix

Grreat

It works great with my subs!

Pretty Powerful Amplifier

Let's start by saying this amplifier will push anything you put on it. It does not even heat up when playing at high levels and the sub almost blew off my trunk. Love for what I payed for it and will use it until it gives away. Definitely recommend this product.

Best Subwoofer Ever built!

This Belva sub box is extremely LOUD!!! If you need that solid bottom hard bass for your vehicle, then I highly recommend BELVA SUB BOX!!!!!

This box made my Type R 12 pound harder than my last box! Just an FYI It’s slight bigger and wider from the other 12in boxes. But it is definitely worth your money!!!

Awesome Prefab Enclosure

This enclosure is made extremely well. It made my NVX VSW124 sound amazing. It looks nice and will turn any subwoofer install into a professional looking setup. I’d buy this or another Belva enclosure and non enclosed subwoofers over a powered or non powered pre-made setup any time. Buy you sub, an amp that meets your subwoofer’s RMS, and the appropriate Belva enclosure, and be amazed. Amazed at not just the sound, but how much you saved over a pre-made setup.

Big surprises in small packages

At first, I didn't think this amp would be anything special since the company who makes Hifonics equipment also owns Autotek (blecch!). I've had this hooked up for about two months though and it's nothing short of amazing. Mated with two 12" Volfenhag 1000W subwoofers, it blew my old setup right out of the water. The sound is so clean, too! It doesn't sound muffled or muddy like a lot of other budget-model amplifiers. If you need a good 1000W monoblock but don't have the money for higher-end brands like Alpine or Kicker, this model is worth every penny and won't disappoint.

very good amplifier for the price

Actually the amp is in my sons car with re 12 d4 anp ported box and it sounds amazing. Would recommend it to anyone thats looking for a good amp.

Same thing happened to me but...

Got my amp ran 4 gauge to the batt and ground 16 gauge to the 3 10" JL W0s I was trying to power. Amp cut off, no thumping, messed with gains, boost knob, checked wiring. Still nothing, took it to an audio shop the next day and the guy said it looks like your amp is fried. So i got an RMA number from Sonic, and I waited entirely too long to send it back and 3 days ago I figured what the hell Ill plug her in and see what she does. Well she BANGED!!!! I have no idea what had happened to it before but she works now and thats all I care about! With the enclosure wired at 4ohms this amp has the potential to OVERPOWER 3 10" subs. Idk what was wrong in the first place but if they all bang like this it is a MUST BUY!!!

Awesome

Solid Amp. Pushes my 2 12's hard. I have a sealed and you can hear me from blocks! WAIT TILL I HAVE A PORTED :D

great bang for the buck!

I'd recommend this anyday!

It powers a couple SVC 12" Pioneers 400RMS each running at 2 ohms. It slams! Can't turn it up past half way without everything in my car rattling. No cons! If it fits the power need, buy this and don't look back!

Horrible

This dumb amp has wasted so much of my time it's ridiculous. I ordered two of these things n both turned out to be defective. The first not putting out any power at all. The second putting out very little power not being able to push my single 12" Kicker L5. I just ordered a Hifonics Brutus BRZ1200.1D hoping it will be way better than this garbage amp. If you been thinking bout buying this amp, don't. Just save up a little more and buy yourself the BRZ1200.1D which is CEA certified unlike this amp. Tech himself told me this amp pushes 600watts out at the most. Hope this helps anyone who has any doubts bout this amp.

Hifonics

Its great, my system is booming.

HFI1000.1D is BEST BANG 4 BUCK

I have had mine a month or so have it pushing 2 12'' HE2 400rms ea. Wired down to 1 ohm small sealed box.

*Grannie is NEAR DEAF and she knows when I pull up!*

While playing juice box 50 feet from grannies house in her back yard
it rattled some glass nick knacks off the computer stamd and rattled her windows and the neighbors : )

.. with a big ported box it'd B MUCH louder...for 150.00 you will be ecstatic.

great amp

I love this amp had it pushing to Quantum Audio 12's at 2 ohms at 750 RMS. Sound very good. Great amp for the price. If u looking for very good amp that won't over heat look no further.

Free shipping, what????

This is a killer buy with free shipping. I used an Infinity 1260W woofer in this and it cranks with only a 200w amp. Place the woofer facing backwards in the trunk and near the back for best bass.

Great Amp! A definite must buy!!!

This amp is just amazing. My older amp was a 2 channel Nitro 1000 watt amp and it had alot more cons than pros. It was able to push my subs but it just didnt have enough power. I just installed my HFI1000.1D yesterday and it blows everybody out of the water! My subs hit harder than ever and you can hear me come down the block. I set off so many alarms while i was powering my subs with this amp. Definately worth the price.

I like it!

I've had this amp for a month now and all I can say is wow! I have two 10 inch Kicker L7s hooked up to this amp with 4 AWG wire and they pound! They make my windshield flex a little but because they are getting true power to them. Haven't had a problem with it yet and it still amazes me!

Great box, sounds good and well built/sturdy. Only negative is that it smells really bad.

The ported box was a good buy. Very convenient with heavy bass.

nice amp

bought this amp 2 months ago. i have this amp running 2 12in kenwood kfc 3011s, and they sound really good. i bought this amp cause my other amp kept getting hot and shutting off, and this one was not suppose to do that. it has once when i turned up the gain and the bass boost pretty high, but i backed off a bit and havnt had no probs since.

Amazing Product

This is a great product that is worth every penny I paid for it.

Kicker cvr 12s

Awesome amp pushes my 2 aluminized Kicker cvrs awesomely, although i have them at 4 ohms now i will be wiring them to 1 ohm soon hopefully that would sound better.. Thanks Sonic Electronix!. :D

T1 15

It is one of the best amps that I have used. I was pushing a T1 15" tatinum in a vented enclosure and it was pushing it good.

Hifonics HFI1000.

This small form factor amp is great IMO. Was able to fit it behind my 2007 Dodge Quad Cab passenger seats w/o having to cut any thing out! Pushing 2 (SVC 4ohm) 10" Kickers, wired for 2 Ohm load from the amp and they bump! Amp is putting out great power. I have 2 (6 Ohm) Audiobahn's that will replace these Kickers for a 1.5 Ohm load in the near future (need to mod the box just a bit for size), but I have no doubt this amp can push a couple of power hungry 6ohm sub's. Light doesn't bug me as I can't see it from where it's all installed but it is just a little bright, not a downer though.

Amp is very light, puts out lots of power, nice config options and for the price you can't go wrong for the every day neighborhood disturbance! My one complaint is the cheap plastic feel the amp has. But like I said it's not a heavy amp. I mean imagine running 4-6 10" or 12" subs with two of these. Not much weight coming from amp's but the boxes and subs (not that it matters if you're actually running that kind of power I guess) would be heavy.

Solid construction and good sound

Installed a Rockford Fosgate Prime 12" sub-sounds pretty good...Definitely good for someone looking to add some punch to a mild system.

???? wow

Brought this sub as a package deal! Let me tell you it hits hard. Will not disappoint.

Hifonices HFI1000.1D

Excellent works perfectly, does the job it's supposed to do would definitely recommend.

Pretty much DOA

I Received the Hifi1000.1D amp today, I was very happy at first, plugged in all my power, speaker, remote wires etc etc. When I went to go turn it on, nothing. Only thing working was the protection & Logo light. I'm very mad about this. Seemed like it was cheaply made. It could either be the RCA plugin or + & - outputs for the subs. and also to add in, The remote bass controller seems cheap too. Plugged it in and the wires were loose and didn't have a good connection at all. The logo light on it was flickering just by touching the wire.

work horse

Has this hooked to 2 8" L7(4) in an 18 wheeler. The looks i get @ red lights, shippers/receivers parking lots. I LUV IT.

Great Value

It fit nicely under the seat in my 04 Toyota Tacoma extra cab. I dont use it at full power, but it has more than enough clean clear power to push my ported 12" sub to vibrate the mirrors so I can't see. Never had any over heating problems, even during the hot summers here in the desert southwest. If this amp should die I will definitely buy it again. You couldn't ask for a better value.

What a great buy

I have the amp connected to my two 12" Kicker CVR's in a ported box @ 2 ohms and WOW!!! It is so loud and makes my mirrors completely useless lol. I have only had it for a short time, but it has never got hot or even warm at that. It looks pretty good, and is a lot smaller than my previous amp which is a plus. I also noticed my light stop dimming even though im running twice the power I used too. This little guy packs quite a punch, so I would seriously recommend getting it. 5 stars all the way

cheap but not good enough

I have two 12' Pioneer Champion series subwoofers and I connected this amp to it barely lifts them up half way! Not what I expected from a Hifonics even though I have the wires bridged for maximum potential and with an air-port custom box. I would recommend to those who want subs to hit but not all that hard.

AWESOME little amp

Awesome Amp!!! It real kicked my twin 12" subs at 2 ohms. Wow! Now I am running in my 2 10" Infinity Kappa's so I can't wait to see its full potential!!!!!!!!!!!

High quality for the price. True power output.

I would highly recommend this amplifier to anyone needing something around 1000 watts true RMS. I have this amp pushing two 10" Eclipse SW6010's. They are in a ported box built to spec. They didn't really come to life until I put this amp on them. I have owned a lot of different brands. From entry level all the way up to top of the line. This is not the best amp I have owned, but I can tell you it is more than worth the price there asking for it. Very well build, feels like it could take a beating and keep going. Sound quality is fairly high, although I have it setup for maximum sound. Only had it a few days but I am very impressed with this amplifier. If you debating if you should get this amp, I can tell you wont be disappointed with this. This is the second MaxxSonics product I have owned, and I feel like you get a lot of product for your money with them. I definitely won't go anywhere else for my amplifier needs.

Good Amp!

Great amp doesnt get to hot. I would recommend this to a friend.

Great amp

I have it hooked up to a 15" CVR 07 and it sounds great. Its a little more powerful than i need it to be but its nice to have extra wattage to make sure my sub is running at its peak. Its never overheated or gone into protection mode and ive had it for 6 months in the spring and summer. Overall excellent buy, hifonics is the way to go.

Great Amp!

Have not had any problems with this amp. I like how small it is, it made is easy to put under the back seat. I am running it at 1 ohm and have had no problems with it getting too hot. Would definitely recommend to anybody that needs to run 1000 watts and not sacrafice a lot of room. And the blue neon light that lights up is really cool at night.

Nice Amp!!

Amp is pushing one 12" woofer hard!! You can't beat this amp for the price. This amp is made by the same company that makes MB QUART!!

pure and sheer power

you get nothing but pure power out of this sweetheart i have it pushing at 2 ohms /750 watts on two re audio 12d2 and wow they hit nasty they love bass mechanik

amazing!!

This little guy is rocking my Power Acoustic P3-12W so hard I actually am concerned it could blow it!! This is a great amp and a great price. Its putting 1000w to my sub and it shows!! The rating is accurate and produces just what it says, a lower quality sub would have been ripped apart by now. HIGHLY recommended! Anyone needing to push 1000w this is what you need. It is really amazing what this little amp can do, (i say that because it is suprisingly small). Don't doubt this one, its got the power it says.

Nice!

Had the amp 3 weeks and not one time has it overheated. Gotten warm because of hot a** Texas but it keeps going! Great, smooth sound for the price. The level knob comes in handy as well! I recommend this amp for subs within the RMS range.

NEED MORE POWER

I have two kickers 12" 400 rms each need more for them to push the power it needs but its ok for now.

HFI1000.1D

Amp is great. Simple as that. It's got great SQ and the SPL is there, no delay on it at all. Suprised by the qaulity. I'd say it's up there with JL and Rockford and everyother high end amp.

Great Value!

Best power for the money! I have used Hifonics for at least 15 years. These new hfi still put out the power but for less money. I think the only difference is the signal input dosn't have the same range as their higher grade amps. Good power and good versatility on ohm loads.

Great amp.

For price you can't beat it, gets the job done and allows me to very the bass on songs that could use more or less punch. I'm completely happy!

Sounds amazing.

I've used for a few months now and it has definitely delivered.
Currently I have one powering 2 12" P2's at about 750W RMS and they sound beautiful. I can go on long road trips just blasting Dubstep and the amp doesn't heat up much at all.
Overall one of the best amps that I've worked with.
The only thing that I can think of that can use some improvement is the mounting points and the bass knob. The mounting points are plastic so be careful when mounting it to something. The bass knob on the other hand seems to get a little sloppy after a while but it still functions so its not really a problem.

boom. boom. pow

Wow. All I have to say. Its such a small looking amp but the output is amazing. It has 2 CVR 10's in a ported box slamming the junk outta my friends car. running at a nice clean 2 ohms and never gets hot, warm to the touch, but far from hot. Definitely recommended this to anyone wanting to bump

Badass

Pushing a couple shallow mount subs at 2 ohms with this. Monster hits, can feel the air flow from the hits between the front seat of my cab, make sure to read the manual to make sure you tune it properly, plus the remote looks good and even has emblem that lights up. looks great and works well!

Great value, great name and great bass

If your looking for a budget happy bass build you'll be happy with this one. I purchased one of these not thinking about my box being a single 15" box. Well I had a piece of solid hardwood flooring that I cut a 12" face out of and put over the 15" whole. I have an Infinity Reference series 611a amp on this thing turned almost halfway on the gain, nearly full on the bass boost and 3/4 on the variable bass optimisation. I ported and tuned the box myself and people think I got two twelves instead of one. Pros. Alpine Great price Cons. Don't hit the low end bass notes as well

Great Vaule Amazing power

This am really does push out around 1000watts rms @1ohm, For the price it simply cannot be beat. Do some research before you buy most people are happy with these series of amps.

great amp

I'm powering two Orion XTR pros getting the 1000 watts @ 1ohm. It doesn't get hot and the bass knob is awesome and it has two non bridgeable channels. Later I can run them both at 750 watts @2 ohms each once they get broken in. Great size also.

solid first amp

Basically it functions well for my two Alpine R's. Very clean sound.

Great Amp!!!

I have just installed this amp on two 12" alpine type R's and wow! this thing makes my whole car flex! most people say that running a setup at 1ohm make the amp heat up more but i can hold my hand on this thing the whole time its playing even when its all of the way. I like that it doesn't draw and excessive amount of power and i can play my car in acc position for about 45mins with my jam cranked all the way. Just get it. It has everything in store!

Great Buy!!!!!

I bought this amp 2 months ago and at first i bought this amp to try it out. I have to say that I'm impressed. I have the amp running at 750 Watts @ 2 ohms, the amp never gets hot never shuts down, it performs 100% up to this point. I am going to really test it by pushing it to the limit at 1000 watts @ 1 ohm. This amp really takes abuse because i play my stereo for 5-8 hours per day on Fr, Sat, Sun. I even turn the van on and let it run all night long till 4 AM and the thing does a perfect job. I will wright another review when i test 4 of these amps @ 1ohm with 8 woofers. Lets see if this amp would perform just as good with another application.

Slams!

I havent had a sub since the 90s. I installed this with an Alpine mono amp in my son's cx5. I'm absolutely blown away at how deep this sub pounds, just floored. I don't even like rap, but this sub makes it enjoyable. I have it in an Atrend sealed box and I'm contemplating buying one for myself now.

Two sets of terminals?

Does anyone know why these have two sets of terminals when it's supposed to be a mono block?

Aweosme amp

This is a great amp. Using a 4g amp kit on a normal car battery and just 13.8v @ the amp, I was able to get 690 watts from just a 2ohm load using the clamp test. Not to bad. It claims 750w@ 2ohms. But of course that's probably a bench test @14.4v. I need to get a yellow top battery soon. Anyway, i'm gonna enjoy this amp for a long time.

Good amp for good price

I would recommend this amp because it is a very well built amp that does have the right rms spec and is fairly small at a good price. Both of my CVR's feel like they are getting the right amount of power.

A Must Have!!

The amp does what its suppose to do and that's give all the power to my subs that they can handle. No cons at all...not really any pros other than it does what it is suppose to do and hasnt failed me yet. Ive only had it for 2 weeks so I will be back to do another review. Everything came in the box like it said and showed up on time. Easy to install. Im just now realizing if the blue hifonics badge lit up or not...I'll let you all know.

Great amp!

This is definitely a great amplifier, has really good power and is an awesome value. Only thing to complain about is once on a cold day the amplifier started to warm up and developed condensation and went into protection mode because of it. Reset the amp and it has been working without any more issues.
I guess this is a good thing rather than a complaint, just was odd that it would condensate to the point of protection mode. I wish the neon could be switched off as well. Badass amplifier otherwise!

Barely Works

I recieved this amp, hooked it up, and was amazed when it barely even moved an L3. I had to turn the gain and bass boost all the way up before i could feel anything. Yes, everything was hooked up right. I took my chances on an iffy, non-CEA 2006 compliant amp and it backfired on me.

Great deal for people on a budget !!!

I bought this amp to even out the small stereo hook up I had on a Chevy Astro Van, and the amp performed 100% without any issues. I had it hooked up at a 2 ohm load. I really put this thing to the test and it never shut down. As far as never heating up, I let this thing play for 8 hours straight and NEVER A PROBLEM!!! I've been doing installations for 20 plus years and I like to push equipment to its permissible limit and this one passes with flying colors. Hifonics amps are great on power and great on the pocket!! If you are looking for CEA certified, look at BRZ models. These are not CEA certified, but do the job 100%.

Everything I Needed

Used this kit to run an amp to the trunk of a 2015 Kia Optima. Ended up trimming about 1½ft of excess to help clean up the install. Everything seems to be good quality. Ran the power wire down the driver's side and RCA & amp signal wire down the passenger side to avoid any interference. Plenty of length of everything for a full size sedan.

Good Amp

This particular amp is performing well. I am very impressed and satisfied with it's performance. I have it pushing four 8inch Polk dual voice coil sub woofers and they are hitting. This is a great amp at a very reasonable price. And most of all it does not get hot and shut off. I drove from New Orleans to Dallas, TX and that is an eight hour drive and the amp performed all the way without getting hot and shutting off.

Very good amp. No distortion stays ice cold after 2hrs full blast at 2 ohms .I'm very happy with the versatility. Very heavy strong well made amp. Didn't know what to expect but it seems to be made as well as kicker/ Raf/eclipse /pioneer amps I have owned and better than all but rf/ eclipse. Great power and all connections are high quality.

AWESOME!!

This amp exceeded my expectations by 1000. I paired it with two massive audio 10s, and I absolutely love it. Has plenty of power and never gets hot. A little bigger than expected in size, but everything is bigger in Texas, so im cool with it, I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to run two 10s or 12s at 1ohm at 1000 watts.

Great amp!!!!!!

It's a good amp for anybody that doesn't want to tear the trunk up but be heard coming.

good power for a low price

this amp was just what i was looking for. it has good power at a low price. i have it on 2 jl audio tw1-12 woofers on a 2 ohm load it stays cool even after hours of playing.

Alright amplifier

I have this hooked to to a alpine type r 10" and it sounds great WHEN IT TURNS ON!! Have had problems since day one with it. I should of returned it back in April.

Amp

Bought this for my alpine 12 sub. Was not easy to install. But it works. So that's good.

good amp

They didn't post my other very detailed review. Probably because they sent me a factory refurbished amp and not new like I paid for. I was very upset about this but went ahead and installed it. Besides it not being new this amp pounds. I have it hooked up to a single 12 cerwin Vega vmax at 2 ohms, in a slot port box and it slams so hard u can feel it in your body. Appears to be good quality, its heavy. The light up HF badge is cool. It makes my lights dim slightly at 2 ohms, getting a cap to fix that. I bumped hard for a hour and it never even got warm, not even slightly. Not sure if the RMS are true but it pounds.

By Richard on March 11, 2016 Verified purchase

Really nice

The product is great quality the shipping was fast and the pricing was reasonable would highly recomend purchasing a second item soon

Hifonics HFi1000.1D

I never give feedback on anything so this is a first. I must say this amp is no joke at all. I'm running two 12 JBL-GT subs in a custom box that fits my mustang. I'm 43 so I need room in my trunk for things that pop up. I have this amp at 2ohms (HALF WAY) and brotha this thing pounds. I've had Rockford and many other amps in the past and this thing hangs right up there. One thing that's nice to is it comes with a bass control knob. It's a little cheap but it does the job for sure. If you are hesitating on this purchase, don't you wont be disappointed at all. One more thing, this amp runs real cool.. Go get a more expensive amp, but why!!!!!

Speakers and amp bought from sonic....THANKS

True to Reputation

I've owned & will continue to purchase HiFonics amps,for me there size & the power there capable of is more than enough,I'm running 2 cerwin Vega 10's & 1 HiFonics12" and this amp just continues to slap them around without missing a beat,this amp is more than just entry level,I'd put it up against any other(I have)brand and feel confident if not the victor it'll give one hell of run.As I write this I'm ready to purchase a second,one for each of my tens,only problem is I haven't had the chance to give the 1500 a go.I'm completely satisfied with the price,I knew the quality and would definitely recommend this amp to anyone who is looking to expand to the next level.

Quality Amp

I like that this amplifier is a true thousand Watts not just some random number that is no where near the correct output. It's well-built heavy duty design fits perfectly underneath the driver seat of my ext-cab Chevy truck. Plus it doesn't seem to wear down as fast like some other brands! In closing you can't find a better amp for the price! In my personal opinion!!

Not Impressed

This amp doesn't seem to put out the RMS it's rated at. I replaced with a higher quality name brand amp that is rated a lower RMS and it's night and day difference. New amp hits harder and cleaner with gain at 1/4 while this amp was around 1/2 and did not produce near the same sound. This amp also seems to be very inefficient. Runs battery down extremely quickly while tuning in the garage versus previously stated replacement amp. I would not recommend the amp unless it's the only thing you could afford.

By Anonymous on January 22, 2019 Verified purchase

Great budget amp

I have this hooked up to a single 12" Alpine Type S wired down to 1 ohm. It doesn't quite put out 1000w, its more like 800w rms but thats plenty for my Type S and it sings loud and clean.

There aren't that many amps on this site that can wire down to 1 ohm and can put out 800-900 watts rms for $130.

For the price, this is a great buy.

Great Price, even better performance!

Amp runs my subs hard! One ohm stable for this price is amazing.

Absolute Best Purchase in Audio

I bought this amp as part of my first and current system in my first (and still current) car, an '03 Jetta, shortly after I turned 16 and got my license. I paired it with an NVX VCW12 and I can confidently did not make a mistake in my purchases. I am turning 21 in a few months and the system is STILL going as strong as it was when I first installed it. I don't think I've ever gotten such a value out of any product in my life, and to have every component it's built of last and continue to perform at 100% for almost 5 years at the price that it's offered, is honestly unbeatable. I would recommend this amp (and the NVX) to anybody looking to buy it! Hope this helps to anyone considering this amp

Decided to take a gamble on a hifonics amp .did some research and my brother told me to go old School with the hifonics 1100.1d on a 10 inch pioneer champion sub and it hits hard,I'm eventually going to slap it with a 12 inch kicker cvx ,it definitely pushing the rms as advertised.

Hifonics 1000 amp

The best this amp give the right amount of power and everything i want for my 1500w sub

Awesome!!!

Awesome amp! It thumps my 12" pioneer champion series all day and never gets warm! The only thing I wish it had is speaker level inputs because I installed it in a 2015 altima that I'm leasing so I didn't want to rip the dash apart. I used a line out converter and t-taps into the rear speakers so as not to cut any wires. Love the lights and it's been over a month now and working awesome!

These guys make a good product.

i personally havent owned this but i am good friends with a guy who has a brutus series. I have to say they make a good product, is pretty cool to look at too with the led lights and stuff. I would recommend this amp to anyone not wanting the absolute top of the line.

I have this guy pushing a kicker 10" L7 at 1ohm in a sealed box. I have it running roughly 800 Watts constantly and haven't had any hiccups. After about 2 hours of running at that rate, it only feels warm to the touch.

Pushing a dc level 2 12 and a Memphis 12 cleanly and efficiently. My whole car is shaking with clean heavy bass that doesn’t drown out the rest of the song. As far as I can tell bass knob is actually an external gain knob that won’t exceed what you have your gain manually set at. Don’t know why it says boost on it. I set my gain where I wanted and boost at zero, when I plugged the knob in set at zero there was no sound.
