cjN Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 Nothing wrong with the hifonics brz series, i think it'd be perfect for an aq hdc3.

Yea it would move it but, he might be able to get a decent true 2k amp, if he can get a good deal on a used amp that's what I'd do.

cjN Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 The trouble is finding a 2k amp for $230 shipped to your door. That does a true 2k.

photochrisb931 Posted October 22, 2011 Report Share Posted October 22, 2011 (edited) A few questions before I say anything. What condition is your electrical in? Have you done the big 3? What kind of battery do you have under the hood? Will you be adding a battery in the trunk? How much spare amperage do you have on your alternator? I know I, like many others, have burned up amps starving them for power. If you are going to upgrade to a level 4 or decided to do an HDC 3 which are both 1k rms rated then your 1200 will be solid for a while. If you have not done any, I would invest in electrical upgrades then start looking for another amp or think about an H/O alt then another amp.
