Hifonics amp Question


Christopher Talbot

Recommended Posts

And.. here goes my budget so I will be returning my hifonics amp and buying a much better quality amplifier, I already have the second subwoofer and now I want more.... so I will be getting 2 more obsidian 12 v3's for a total of 4 of them. I already have the big 3 done and I ordered 50 foot of 1/0 guage wire to replace my 4 guage from my battery. I plan on running multiple batteries in the trunk a buddy of mine got a great deal on 6 http://www.atbatt.com/genesis-np38-12b-12v-38ah-sealed-lead-acid-battery-with-nb-terminal.asp of those, I tested them and there all reading 13.60 volts after sitting for a year in his basement hes offering me all 6 for 200 dollars... so I will not miss that deal he got them wholesale and is losing out but hes a great friend of mine and hed rather see them goto use then sit in his basement. I already have a XS POWER D1200 in the front replacing my stock battery.

So my question is will http://www.soundqubed.com/Q1-2200D_p_31.html amplifier handle my 4 subs accordingly?

As long as you don't get the final DC resistance below 1-ohm.

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

Hifonics BRZ 1200.1 if you want to stay with Hifonics

http://www.amazon.com/Hifonics-Brutus-BRZ1200-1D-D-Class-Block/dp/B0036B8URK

I'd personally go with a MB Quart DSC 1500.1

clamped doing a tad over 1600 rms at 14.4v

budget amps that will do you just fine for the time being and your budget

My amp budget just went to 450 and Ill be running 4 obsidian 12's now if you read a few posts back..

I'd take the Soundstream 2500 over the AQ 2200.1 any day of the week

My deal with soundqubed is ;The Q1-3500D.1 is one of our most powerful Amplifier with up to 7500 watts @ 1ohm @ 18volts for those guys and ladies who want to push their systems to the limit. You can strap a pair of Q1-3500D.1'S for a woofer busting 15000 watts @ 2ohm. Born in the same place as our popular Q1-1200D and Q1-2200D and built with the very best parts money can buy the Q1-3500D.1 offers the best watt per dollar value in its power range.; If there next step up amp can produce that out of the box with increased voltage I want an amp thats going to draw clean power and soundqubed seems to have there shit together even though that amp isnt the one im looking at it still spells out quality reguardless of which I choose.

You aren't going to be running more than 14 volts so that rating doesn't matter.

Soundstream Rubicon 2500

Hella efficient. And will push those Obsidians nicely.

I did a little swap from my CT Sounds 1400.1 with a Rubicon 1600 with a friend of mines, and voltage went down .1-.2 of a volt while it seemed like the Rubicon pushed my XFL a tad bit harder


If you want to spend the money on the SQ, that's a fine choice. I posted my recommendation
