ROCKS

I have this thing running 1 kicker 12" solobaric and it ounds hard i would def recomend it to anyone...

By Ryan on October 26, 2005

WOW

I have this powering 2 12" AW1206T's each taking 750watt RMS at one ohm they are wired in parallel for the 1ohm load.... cant barely breath in my front seats let alone the back.... It barely gets warm after 1 hour of pure pounding at 1500rms and keeps on going... i ran it for 3 hours before it started getting warm which is amazing considering i had it in the 1 ohm load. Great amp. Make sure when you wire it your wiring to spec..... it is not stable at all ohm loads

Nice Amp

Overall, I say its a nice amp for the price.

The first one I purchased was defective, but the second one I recieved operated fine.

Don't believe the specs for the amp. I've been running it for a few months now, it pounds pretty hard. Wired at 1 ohm, there's no way it pushes 1500 rms. You'd be lucky if you gets 600 rms out of it. Amp is a power hog too. I have a 200 amp alternator /w a cap, but I still get dimming lights. Better amps out there if you have the bucks, but still good for the price.

Eh....

I had this amp for 3 weeks and it POUNDED. I was so happy with the price and everything. THEN it started going into protect mode anytime it got loud, it was hooked up professionally and checked by a different shop. THey all said it was the amp!!! I have seen other reviews about this amp with similar problems but others that are SOOO happy with it. Hit or miss I guess!!

Hifonics BX1500D Brutus Class-D Series

Love this amp, this is my second one and have recomended it to all of my friends. It hits hard, I am running two Alpine type R 1042D's at 2 ohms... plenty of power for them... I also like the bass knob that allows me to tune from the front seat for the type of music I am listening to.
