n8ball2013 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 because its cheap. some people dont quite grasp that an amp that claims 1500 watts at half the price isnt the same as an amp that does 1500 plus watts reliably because its twice the price.

HatersGonnaHate Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 BRZ and BXI line have done close to rated, if not rated. Same with some of the older models of amps. The new lines like the HFI are complete bullshit. Nate and Joe are correct though, BRZ1200 for $140 isn't that bad at all. And you'll hear the argument a lot... "it's not bad for the price"....

HatersGonnaHate Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 I gotta agree, those terminal lights are overkill lol My name is AdamThis is my Civic Build.7" Samsung Tab 2Kenwood KDC-X896Clarion EQS746Sundown X-15DC 3.5k @2ohmHatersGonnaHate's 02 Civic UBLELD Bypass for Honda Civic/Accord/FitDon's Jeep Grand Cherokee Rebuild N8ball2013 - i think you'd stick your dick in a blender if it told you it was 40 wtih two kids your age. lol srp365 - If posting were picking up bitches, I'd be going home single tonight looks like tony montana sneezed in your car.

AI James Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Not to start a war or anything but for those of you saying you hate hifonics and would never run them is there a true reason? Have you ever run them? Or do you hate them because they have lights and because they make other brands that you hate? Or because youve heard stories of them? Ill admit they not be the greatest amps but the good lines they do have (brutus collosus brutus elite) are still some damn good amps. The "don't judge a book my its cover" pops up in my head. I run the brz 1700 and if I had the money I'd get the new one. Current one is at sonic for rma on the bass knob or something. But I've ran that amp hard as hell the last 7+ months and it took every second of it like a champ and never got hot never failed. They are a great budget amp and really arent power hungry like everyone seems to say they are. What if I said I hate one of the respected brands on here because they are built in the same build house as a POS amp? Same thing. Don't knock them unless youve tried them personally. But it does depend on the application for those angled terminals. They can be good or bad just depends. End rant. i wouldnt be giving any amp line credit for lasting 7 months and then say something about it being RMA'd for any issue whatsoever. Yours or anyones amp for that matter should be working indefinitely. Angled terminals...i hate them, i hate them on expensive amps all the same as i hate them on this cheap amps.

Omega5002 Posted January 23, 2013 Report Share Posted January 23, 2013 Hifonic's is actually probably one of the better entry level mainstream brands that does rated, rather pick it over power hungry Kenwood, Alpine monoblocks, Soundstream, and definitely over Audiopipe( in my opinion ). 2003 Kia Sorento Team Subsonic LowsTeam Bassin' on a Budget2016 Rebuild Under Construction Best score: 150.2 at 40hz (3k, 2 Custom HDC3 15's) Usaci style(door open, in the kick) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yours or anyones amp for that matter should be working indefinitely. Angled terminals...i hate them, i hate them on expensive amps all the same as i hate them on this cheap amps. I am getting it rma'd because the bassknob got shorted somehow and blew that control section of amp. Only have the problem when knob is plugged in. No problems. I just like the use of my bassknob so I'm getting that figured out. I can say that amp can take a beating and will keep going. It would last much longer probably. I planned on upgrading but no money at this point. But to each their own. I like the amps and will continue running them.

They are electronics, they degrade which world do you live in....ive never had an amp blow at all. but then again i dont use entry level in any of my personal stuff. Ive messed with a TON of amps and hifonics are more prone to dumb endings then more quality based amps. i love that every single year a new "line" comes out at hifonics and all the entry level guys chime in that they do power and they are awesome amps lmao no thanks .
