Best low priced amp for Fi SP4

[DannyA.K.ABasshead]

Ok everyone I am doing a system update and am trying to figure out a great amp for the sub I'm getting. The sub I am looking at getting is a Fi SP4 18" and I have found an Audioque AQ2200D but it is 2200 watts at 1 ohm for 429 bucks and then I found a Hifonics Brutus BRZ2400.1D with 2400 watts at 1 Ohm for 387 bucks and it comes with the ground and power wire, speaker wire, remote turn on wires, rcas, a fuse, and a capacitor. but at 2 ohms the Audioque doesnt have a 2 ohm wattage shown but the Hifonics is at 1700 watts on 2 ohms. Also another question what is a better choice 1 ohm or 2 ohm for the Fi?

audioque amp quality > hifonics. capacitor is practically pointless if you have a stock alt.

you want dual 2 coils if you're using 1 sub. to wire it to 1 ohm at the amp

Yeah. I haven't really heard anything about Hifonics so I thought I'd ask. But Audioque has another amp that would work at 2 ohms but its another 300 bucks but if I have to I'll save up the extra 300 bucks and purchase the amplifier. But is there any other kind of amplifiers that are cheaper but just as reliable and as good as quality.

if you have a dual 2 ohm sub, you will NOT be running it at 2 ohms bud....

no vs threads are allowed on this forum, there won't be an audible difference between the AQ2200 or BRZ2400.1, they are the same exact amps internally but the AQ has higher quality components from what i've been told.

why on earth you'd want to run a like 3000w sub at 2 ohms is beyond me

cause he wont just get the proper VC single sub to wire it to 1ohm

i have owned a brutus BRZ2400 before and i dont think they do rated . there is other brands that can give you the wattage you need like crescendo and sundown. crescendo being cheaper in cost by a bit. you wont be able to tell the difference between a 2200 watt and to a 2500 watt amp so it wouldnt really matter which one you get

[DannyA.K.ABasshead]

Do you know off hand how much a crecendo would run me? I just checked their website but it said a new website launching soon.

Re audio has the xtx5000.1 that is in the same price range. Its not amazing quality but equal to the aq. Better the hifonics.
