Brutus Series Amplifiers

When it is time for some serious power for your car audio system, Hifonics is the way to go. The Brutus Series Amplifiers are in line with the high power output that Hifonics is known for.

Incorporating Super D-Class circuitry allows for dedicated, efficient power for higher bass response without sacrificing sound pressure. The Ultra-Fi MOSFET outputs chosen for the Brutus Series are typically used for music production where high power, efficient cooling and minimal distortion are key. They allow these amps to produce high power with minimal distortion.

The included bass knob can allow you to adjust your bass to match any genre of music you listen to. The Brutus Series also has RCA outputs for daisy chaining multiple amps together for even more power. Designed to get loud, the Brutus Series Amplifiers are ideal for a pounding audio system!

Great Amp

Called up Sonic Electronix and asked them what amp to use for my 2 12" RE Audio SExv2's and they said this amp. I hooked it up and wow is all I have to say! It delivers clean power at 1 ohm giving out 1500 rms all day on my multimeter and only gets somewhat warm after a good hour on full blast. I would recommend this amp to anyone looking to power bigger subs cause my subs hit the lows now like never before. This amp make for a clean install, looks nice and the blue led logo shines bright. A+

Good product

Amp is working well. Looks nice. Couldn't fit 0 gauge. Did 4 guage instead. My lights dim a little when system is turned up. It pushes a 12 i have comfortably. I wonder how better it would be with 0 guage. Overall good quality amp for price.

Big Bang for your buck

I was a little unsure about using tis amp because I had never heard of it. This amp pushes two L7 Kicker Solo Baric 12's with ease!! And the bass knob that comes with it is also a blessing! I was building the system for my son's Honda Civic while he is deployed and really wanted to make it jam for him when he gets back stateside and this a does the job well. The extended warranty was cheap also and gives it a 3 year warranty. I would definitely recommend this amp to anyone wanting power for less money! 1500 watt amp that rated at 1695 watts!! I'll take it!!

Awesome Sound Quality & Power

I have this amp at 2.67 ohms pushing 3 Alpine Type S 10s in a sealed box in a Jeep Wrangler. Sound quality is very good, power is impressive. I have used JL, Polk, Alpine, etc. in the past, this amp sound as good as any high end amp. Do not hesitate to purchase this amp, of course from Sonic!
The bass knob is well made, good ergo design and look!

Beast of an amp!

This may be the last amp I might ever need to buy, at least for everyday use. Quite possibly the loudest system I have owned, it is paired up with a PA gothic series 12” in a ported box. Very satisfied with this amp.
