Post Number: 4316 Registered: Jul-06 | Rovin,look into their XX line,that's Hifonics' bread and butter.Those amps are all under-rated but they're BXwtfever series aren't all that.It's like the transition between Pioneer head units and Pioneer Premier.You know you'd but the Premier without thinking twice usually but the normal Pioneer are complete trash and have build builds most of the time. |

Platinum Member Username: Rovin4 10 Pioneer... Post Number: 12003 Registered: Jul-05 | ^^very interesting u should mention that SS amp since i currently own 1 of those & reason 4 this thread was thinking about if i got 1 of those Hif brutus : if it would be an upgrade or will i be in a different seat in the same 2000wrms boat ? ... just wanted to try out a Hif since that SS is very common in my country & wanted something just to be different ......... |

Silver Member Username: Theweasel2 12 FI SSD, Colorado U.S. of A Post Number: 985 Registered: Mar-06 | i don't think the HIFO would be an upgrade, if it was it'd be minimal. you could get the 2607 and it would probably put out about 2200-2300 watts. what is the budget? |

Silver Member Username: RenegadesrunLafayette, IN US Post Number: 934 Registered: Oct-04 | Perhaps its over rated, but rated at 18v, like the new models appear to be. IE XXX10000 (6500w) *shrugs* |
