i need an amp that can power 2 12" kicker cvx subs

the subs are 750rms a peice, so 1500rms total

i was looking at the audioque aq1200d amp, which does 1200rms @ 1 ohm

should i go with that amp, or a hifonics amp? the aq1200d amp is 250$ and does 1200rms @ 1 ohm but the hifonics amp is 1600rms@ 1 ohm for 200$

what amp would give me better sq? and theres other hifonics amps i could get thats just one, should i get a hifonics amp over AQ or not? why or why not?

you don't need to post a new thread when you already had one...

since your on a budget and your looking for more power i would get the hifo. amp... but WHICH EVER amp you get i would think about upgrading your charging system..

should i go with the

AudioQue AQ1200D
HIFONICS BXi1606D
HIFONICS BXi-1206D
HIFONICS TXI1508D

which one will i benefit more from? and what one will put out the most power, and the actual power it says?

well all those amp claim they put out different amount of power.. theoretically if you get the BX1606 you will probably get the most power out of all the other amps... if that is your question. How big is your alternator?

dont go with the crunch... i would most likely just stick with a hifo.

in my experiences i have dealt with more problems related to crunch amps then hifo. amps. But like i said, the hifo. amps are overrated so even with the 1606 you will prob get 1200-1300 watts

I'd take the AQ over the Hifonics any day. Prolly put out the same power, but I would think build quality is greater with the AQ.

well yea the built quality is going to be better... its comparing aq and hifonics lol but like i said if your strapped for cash hifo. is ideal, but if you can shell out a couple more bucks, (i think the aq is like 250) get the aq

Good choice. That is by far the best amp mentioned here. Hifonics are way overrated in power.
