Silver Member Username: Kd7nfrMontpelier, ID United States Post Number: 532 Registered: Apr-05 | Hey guys. My friend is looking at getting some Eclipse subs through me (he doesn't like the internet). And he wants some cheap power. What do you guys think of Hifonics? He's going for SPL (he listens to rap 24/7). I've never owned a Hifonics amp, and am just asking opinions here. Thanks guys! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem%26item%3D5784882526&category=18797 I need about 1500 WRMS. (Almost forgot that part...) |

But if you're looking for a cheap power that's better than Sony/Pyramid/Pyle/Lanzar/Boss, then I guess it's acceptable. I take it back, that amp looks as bad as Pyramid! If you can get 1000w rms or more from that amp without blowing your sub/amp, then I'll wear a shirt that says Hifonics rule! Oh it can't be for few seconds. It has to last at least 6 months of use without breaking down. |

Thats like buying a ferrari and putting in a 5hp electric motor that only puts out 2hp in it. |
