Bronze Member Username: ArtofaccuracyPost Number: 55 Registered: May-04 | I'm wondering what amp to get? Trying to go cheap, bang for the buck. They're going in sealed boxes behind my mr2's seats, they're description says 600 watts each but my friend told me they push 750 watts each? What's up with that? |

Bronze Member Username: HardhittinpunchPost Number: 16 Registered: Feb-06 | whoa.. Im being called a dumbass? He asked for what amp, so I gave him a good Amp. Hifoncis is way under-rated also. And excuse me for not knowing about running 2 subs through a 1 channel amp. My bad. But Hifonics is definetly a great amp, and I have 2 forums of people that will back me up on that. www.forum.realmofexcursion.com www.deathbydb.com |

Silver Member Username: Nnnnick_bWeddington, Nc Usa Post Number: 585 Registered: Jan-05 | Hifonics is definitely not under-rated. They only put out around 70% of there rated power @ 14.4 volts. |
|
Bronze Member Username: HardhittinpunchPost Number: 18 Registered: Feb-06 | one line of the amps do. Most of them put MORE per say wattage out than they are rated |

Silver Member Username: FandimReno, Nevada United State... Post Number: 908 Registered: Jun-05 |  That dosnt look under rated to me.. at 14.4 volts, it's over 100 actual watts lower.. and at 13 volts, it's over 500 watts over-rated.  They are good budget amps, but DEFINATELY not under-rated. |

Bronze Member Username: ArtofaccuracyPost Number: 56 Registered: May-04 | I'm looking into the merlin md2 amp, the only thing is it sounds really shady. First of all I've never heard of USAmp before. Second, I see people selling them on ebay for 375.00 as well. Third a search on google yields nothing even close to a review of the amplifier, the only place I can find them is some german site. I'm leaning toward the hifonics because its got all these sweet features like remote bass control, 2,000 WATT Mono Block Class "D" Monster Subwoofer amplifier 2,000 x 1 RMS @ 1 ohm 1 ohm stable 1,300 watts @ 2 ohms Mosfet power outputs RCA Outputs Advanced Class Super "D" Setup All new efficient Heatsink Design Hifonics Logo Illuminates in bright neon illumination Power and Protection LED indicator Gold RCA Inputs Daisy Chainable (you can connect 2 amps and get double the power together) Built in advanced crossover system Balanced line inputs Soft Start Turn on for extra long lasting amplifier protection Subsonic bass filtration system Low Pass Filter: 35 - 250 Hz Bass Boost: 0 - 18 dB Phase Shift: 0 - 180 degrees 24 dB Subsonic Filter (15 - 50 Hz) Dimensions: 16.5" L x 10.39" W x 2.63" H S/N Ratio: >95dB THD: <0.08 |

Bronze Member Username: ArtofaccuracyPost Number: 57 Registered: May-04 | lol my bad. I dont really know why I posted that thing about sweet features, I knew it was just an advertising ploy. I'm getting the USamps because its the better sub I've figured out. Not to "prove my worth" on this forum though, I could give a sh!t |
