good for a while but not to long

i bought this amp from a buddy of mine and it worked for him for a while then when i hooked it up in my car is was working for a week and it just stoppped working. i have power lights and everything but no sound. it produces good bass when it works but i wouldnt recomend buying this amp. every person ive known that had this amp always had something happen to it.

great amp wonderful settings

I really am a fan of hifonics now, I have had kicker, power accoustic, rockford Fosgate, Kenwood and Clarion amps. This amp is very powerful, its not as clear as some other amps but I had it hooked up to 4 cvr 10s in a 4runner and you had to roll the windows down or you risked damage to the car. I would highly recommend the amp as well as a cap to go with it. Ive had this amp for a year then sold it to a guy who sold it to a guy who traded it to a gurl and she still had the amp on 2 alpine type rs and they sound great.

Great amp for money

I upgraded from a pioneer amp. This amp has 60 more watts rms at 4ohms than my old one and thumps a lot harder, drives my kicker cvt12 great and doesn't even dim my lights on my avalanche like the old one did. Best amp I have had but haven't used many others.

No amperage drain!

this is my third amp to power a pair of 10W6's and i must say: this is the cleanest and tightest i have ever heard my subs hit. at 2ohms i once gave the subs 125 a piece for a total of 250w. that was the TMA 250.1 and it dimmed my lights 5x as much as this amp does AND the subs are now seeing 450w a piece! that's almost 4x the wattage power for 1/5 the amperage cost. this amp is legit too; with an 80amp fuse rating, that places the power right at 900 watts if you do the math. for this to be a 2ohm load, i am amazed at how cool this amp stays, and the length of time it stays that way. the only downside i have found in this amp is that there are three key sizes for the wire: OH MY GOD!! but seriously, no problems, and no catches. just cool, clean, "cheap" power.


oh yeah, and power from the gods included!

Powerful amp

This is a good amp. The class d feature is a must buy with today's amps. This amp puts out a lot of power and makes my subs beat. My subs sound alright now but I'm sure when i get around to messing with the amp my system will sound great. Hifonics amps are affordable and compete with all the expensive amps out there. I like the Hifonics blue light, and the chrome. This looks great in my truck and is just what i needed. The only thing i don't like about this amp is how the controls are designed, there kind of hard to get to but this amp is definitely worth it.

Older model.....

I have the older model of this amp! I will say this, my wife will not let me turn up the radio when our son iz n da car! Also wish a few adjustments to what iz in the trunk, she has to keep relocation where the rear view mirror sits at!!!!!!!!!!!

Would recommend this in a millisecond! In fact sold some of my older amps to get this one.

Awesome amp

This amp is awesome. I have had 3 or four subs hooked up to it now including a 12" rockford POWER hx2, a 12" orion hcca, 2-12" mb quart premium's and currently a 12" eclipse titanium. It has powered all of these subs with no problem... never gone into protect mode and i have it for over 2 years now A++++

Horrible

This amp is horrible I only had it for a month and it went out on me. Sent it in received a brand new one and it went out again. Technicians said it was working fine the second time I sent it in but I told them it was putting out no sound. Stay away from Hifonics.

Nice

This amp will make your subs hit hard without a doubt. mono is the way to go, dont get a 2 channel. packs a mean punch without necessarily needing a capacitor or extra battery if you have a decent one in your car. with two 4ohm DVC subs wired to 1ohm on this amp you are guaranteed to get noticed. nice job hifonics!
