Same board DOES NOT EQUAL SAME AMP.........


Same board means jack sh!t, it's the quality of the components used.

chauncey is right, that being said what does it matter. if you don't have problems mechanically with your hifonics then it's good to go. i ran my 1500d for a while with no problems.

If you really believe that you're a total moron. If they use cheap and high resistance conductors inside the board and use the cheapest parts that are at times faulty versus an amp with the same board using great quality conducts and parts you'll have a much stronger,cleaner and reliable amp. Stop posting retarded statements please. Do you even think about what you're saying before you post? Now I'm not bashing either amp here but you guys really need to use your brains before you go posting random bullsh1t.

^^^^^^ right on

And obviously I didn't build either amp. Hifonics and AQ both have reputations for how good their quality is, and most of know which ones a lot better.

Like I said you will not be able to tell a difference besides in your wallet...And if you feel comfortable believing so, thats all up to you

"And obviously I didn't build either amp. Hifonics and AQ both have reputations for how good their quality is, and most of know which ones a lot better."

Honestly I have heard of about more DD/Audioque subs blowing then Hifonics amps failing..Its all about how you use your equipment, I have seen Cheap a.s.s amps running for 5-10years+ without a single problem, and still work fine...

Not saying i would choose the hifonics over the Audioque, just stating facts...

Thats all you can really go by, the company's rep for their quality.

I hope DJ from Audioque sees this thread. I'm sure he'd have something to say about the 1200d being the same amp as a hifonics........
