CUT BUDDY Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 What are you guys thoughts on the XX Colossus II (note: note the big long 40"+ amp...the one before the one thats out now)? Got a chance to buy 2 for a steal to power my 2 dual 1ohm BTL 12s Quote TEAM MechMan Alternators Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bass lover Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I've heard good things about the XX line of Hifonics. The amps aren't over-rated at all. And I think they are rated at 12.5 volts, I might be wrong on that though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AI James Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 i loved mine have even thought about trying to find one again to run the new setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1LoudCelica Posted August 5, 2008 Report Share Posted August 5, 2008 I ran the xx-colossus, the long one, loved it one of my favorite amps.. I dunno about the new ones though, friend tried his and I was less than impressed powering a single 9515 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
