Demo402 Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 So lately i have been thinking of upgrading my amp, and was looking for a day or 2 and came across this Brutus. Right now I'm running at 4 ohms for 600 Wrms, with this Hifonics i would be running 600Wrms at 1 ohm. What do you guys think? Upgrade and sell the Alpine?

puyallupn8ive Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 It just didn't seem to put out rated, and I bought that amp to replace a RF 500, and I was happier with the RF.

puyallupn8ive Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 I think for that price range AQ has a 1200 wrms amp that will do rated or more that rated, check them out.
