New amp, is it any good?


Recommended Posts

Mb quart onx1.1500d has anyone heard this amp before looking to get it just curious on the quality of the build and how it sounds

They are a Maxxsonics-manufactured amp. For they money, they aren't bad. I personally stay away from Maxxsonics stuff, but if you find it for a good deal, I think it'll work just fine. If I am not mistaken, it's a cousin of the Hifonics Brutus series. It's got good reviews @ Sonic and should do near-rated power.

If im correct its very similar to the BRZ1700, which im running currently. Cant beat them for the price!

You might be a Redneck if you use your leftover gutters for a speaker box port...

if youre on a budget......i suppose theyre alright...theyre stout and can take a beating..prolly the best thing about em

This isn't teeball. YOU DO NOT GET A TROPHY JUST BECAUSE YOU SHOW UP. Put the work in and then maybe get the respect when it has been earned

I want to see a gut shot. Doesnt it have 4 gauge inputs not 2 gauge like the BRZ 1700. The sides look identical almost to a BRZ 1200.

I wonder what differences there really are on the inside. Is it CEA compliant like the BRZ line...I know it doesnt mean alot for actual numbers but part of me feels like they put a MB Quart case on a BRZ amp upped the rating a little and called it good.

Kinda like how they have Autotek and Crunch under the Maxxsonics name...and that Mean Machine is 4000 with 4 gauge inputs. and the side of the board has two 70amp fuses identical to the brz1200

In fact a quick look at Sonic electronics the sides of the MB quart 1500 BRZ1200 and MM4000 all have the same number and look identical. But they could still use different components inside right?

maxxsonics amps never do rated, good for the money though.

would like to see some clamp scores on these or hifonics

id love to test my actual output, but A. My voltage drops to 12.9 at full tilt while idling, and B. I don't have a clamp meter, just a Fluke 88...my grandfather, who's a retired electrician might though....if i can find one without buying one, ill do the tests.

if it weren't a bitch to get mine out id take a gut shot for ya, but it requires removing my back seat completely and all, and its too fucking hot for that.... my BRZ1700 takes 0ga knuconceptz wire.....
