New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 1 Registered: Jun-06 | i was think about getting a 2000 watt hifonics amp for my ride. i can get it for $329 , but my buddy has 4000 watts audiobahn for $400. is the brutus serie any good and same question for the audiobahn 4000? |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 807 Registered: Feb-06 | what are you powering? the hifonics is overrated so you wont see all of the power is says it puts out, but at least it isn't audioburn. |
Silver Member Username: Jonez788Post Number: 155 Registered: Jun-04 | I would go with Hifonics over the Audiobahn. I will also be getting that 2006D. |

New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 5 Registered: Jun-06 | he didn't tell and i didn't ask.. lol but it is still in the box , he had it for awhile but never come across a full setup he wanted.. well that is what i was told. lol see no evil.. |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 810 Registered: Feb-06 | i can tell you the same story on audiobahn than that link in fewer words-crap and yeah, you better do some upgrades before trying to run that much power in your car. |
New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 6 Registered: Jun-06 | i don't mean while as in months , weeks , once again, so i was told..i found one on line for 1300 also .. |
New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 7 Registered: Jun-06 | just like a more power alternator? capitor? what is all needed? i had a mtx 1000d and it had my volt meter jumping like crazy and ruined one.. so apparently i don't have to strong a charging system. i was also told old school mtx took alot of extra power though.. |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 812 Registered: Feb-06 | ho alt, new battery, and upgrade the big 3 and you'll be set. and don't get a cap. you don't need one, and if you get one, only get it AFTER you get the ho alt. |
New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 8 Registered: Jun-06 | ok not really sure what a ho alt is or the big three. hey but i understood new battery. but what kind are good? |
New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 9 Registered: Jun-06 | ho alt = high output, ok figured that out. what is big 3? |
Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 133 Registered: Mar-06 | Gte a High Output alternator i suggest www.excessiveamperage.com for that (200A +). Get drycell deepcycle batterys for best result (ex. Optima Yellow Top) and probally a run of 0 gauge and somthing around a 200A inline fuse. Upgrade your ground and positive wires under the hood also... 0 gauge from frame to battery and alternator. and do the same with the positive(not connecting it to ground thought DUH :-P ) |
Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 134 Registered: Mar-06 | another thing, i completely agree with those people saying audiobahn sux, i bought one of there 18001DT amps i think it was 1800RMS 1ohm whichever model that is, it burned up as soon as i turned it on, never bought another amp from them again, i bough 2 immortal series 12'' subs from them QVC 2ohm, they suck @ss can give some loud bass you can hear for like 5 blocks away but sounds like $heit what are leaning for SPL or SQ or SQL |
New member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 10 Registered: Jun-06 | i just want sumthin that will beat down the block when driving around. think i will go with the hifonics bxi 2006d. i heard brutus was pretty good. |
Silver Member Username: JohnfiacIl USA Post Number: 138 Registered: Mar-06 | Well what do you mean by beat, SQ is more of the type of bass that you feel. SPL is the kind that you here for a far distance(and makes your ears pop alot)You would probally need bigger then a 200A alt if your going SPL. |
Gold Member Username: Dustin3Tigard, Or U.S. Post Number: 1579 Registered: Oct-05 | what kind of subs are you plannin or runnin? |
Bronze Member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 11 Registered: Jun-06 | http://www.cardomain.com/item/ABNAW1206T these the speakers i will be running. i have two right now and depending on the amp , i might get another. i want to heard from far distance.. |
Silver Member Username: CtmikeCt. Post Number: 836 Registered: Feb-06 | you get those subs and all people will hear is lousy, distorted, crappy bass coming from your car, and only for awhile cause those piece of sh!ts wont last you long. what's your budget for subs, someone here will point you in the right direction. |
Bronze Member Username: LoseronriverBeaumont , Texas Usa Post Number: 12 Registered: Jun-06 | most i casn spend right now is about 400 total. wifey runs a tight ship around here lol.. |
