Seems like a lot of people with power hungry subs use Hifonic amps to power them. Are they good amps? Anyone here using them?

 

ive got the 1800d and love it
'
had the 1500d prior to owning this one and loved it too

 

got a bx1500d pushing 2 RE SE 12's mad loud. killing stock alternator tho. need a cap

 

Where online can I find specs on RE subs?

 

http://www.reaudio.com/

 

any overheating issues?

 

none for me...

ive got my 1800d on my stock alt and its not hurting it at all... yellow top also

 

They are high quality amps, check ebay for a lot of great steals on that brand!!!

 

I went from the 1500D (loved it) to the 2200D. Both run/ran at 1 ohm with no problems. I have a stock alt too.

 

2200d ... wow

what you pushing?

 

I have a few subs I play with. Orion H2 15.2, Eclipse Titanium 15, Audiobahn ALum 10Q(3), RF HX2 15's.

 

jesus that must be loud ^^^

 

anyone have birthsheets on their amps?

 

If I'm not mistaken, Hifonics doesn't do the birth sheet thang....

They are good amps if you are looking for raw power and if it fits your flexibility needs, on the flipside, the adjustability/crossover controls suck- not a real refined product, obvious from price- I've seen a few posts in audio forums indicating that a tested 1000D did not put out rated power

 

so there's no real way to see how much those amps are really putting out? for the price, they seem like a good choice.

 

Nah, not really, unless you get a bench test. I compared my 1500D to my Memphis 16-ST1000D (1100 watts@1 ohm), and the Brutus caused my subs to hit just as clean, but harder, and no one argues that Memphis doesnt put out its rated power.

 

The 1000D is the only I've seen in question- I say they are good amps, and if it fits your budget even better, they do put out plenty of power and are 1ohm stable

I personally would rather spend a lil' more and get Kicker or RF>>(i didn't just say that )much more refined products

The 1500D seems to be a econo-favorite amongst the caraudio forums crowd, must be pretty diesel

 

My friend has 2 Hifonics amps and i wouldn't hesitate to recommend them to anyone. The next amps i buy will mastly be Hifonics. you cant beat the performance/price ratio!
