Bronze Member Username: HiphopanonymousPost Number: 86 Registered: Dec-03 | these two amplifiers are basically in the same price range. which would you buy? I'm thinking on either one of these two for an upgrade. if neither of these, then which other amp? I'm looking for a mono class d amp that goes down to 1 ohm. |

Silver Member Username: JayjPost Number: 210 Registered: May-04 | Dude I know stuff about these things you couldn't even dream about. And I can tell you from hands on experience that audiobahn products are a piece of sh!t. Just because it has 10 amps more doesn't mean sh!t. That kicker would blow it away. You still didn't answer my question. Do you even know what a mono amp is? |

Silver Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 652 Registered: May-04 | That amp at 1 ohms will be the most unreliable piece of sh*t in the car audio world. A stereo amp bridged to a 1 ohm load from a horribly unreliable company? That thing will put out enough heat to keep your car warm in 0 degree weather. And it'll sound horrible, but that's not only b/c of a 1 ohm bridged load, also because of a crappy amp, 1 ohm bridged will have NO headroom at all. If it was truly a reliable 1 ohm stable bridged amp, it'd be stable to .5 ohms stereo. Get the Kicker. Audiobahn is very poor quality compared to high end audio brands, if you read my post a while back , you'd read that Audiobahn was responsible for about 3/4 of the returned items in my shop. |

Silver Member Username: Jonathan_fGA USA Post Number: 653 Registered: May-04 | By the way, 10 amps will NOT put out 1200 more watts. It takes over 120 amps to create 1200 watts RMS |
|
Bronze Member Username: Car5_14Post Number: 68 Registered: May-04 | so how many watts rms and total does the kicker 1200.1 have and the audiobahn a2300hct have? |
|
ThatGuyYouKnow Unregistered guest | wow i think we really have a newb here, you better knoe what RSM is or you are stupid... |

New member Username: CbigchrisbPost Number: 2 Registered: Jun-04 | from that post it seems someone else might be stupid |
|
Bronze Member Username: Car5_14Post Number: 69 Registered: May-04 | lol thanks chris. RSM what the hell r those? i think ur the newb. and rms is USUALLY half the total output it means root mean square. and i wnt to know the rms for those amps not what rms is? |
|
ThatGuyYouKnow Unregistered guest | look it up, and i spelled RSM on porpose cuz you made me lose 30 iq points due to lack of your knowladge |

Bronze Member Username: FlashfloodMN Post Number: 14 Registered: Jun-04 | Ahem... Just because a company says an amp can hit a certain rating, doesnt mean it actually can... For instance, the AudioBahn POS sub I just tested was blowing smoke out of the port with 150 watts less than its "rated" RMS. I wouldnt doubt the fact that Audiobahn puts as much effort in building their sub-par subs as they do their amps. -Joey (Audiobahn hater-in-training) |

Bronze Member Username: GrmncrsnbrVA Post Number: 78 Registered: Jun-04 | Hey when you get done arguing over the same crap that flows through here a millions times a day maybe we can answer the guy who stared the threads question. From what i understand they are both good amp companies but memphis cant be bought online so really there isnt a way to get lower prics. I personally am planning on getting a hifonics amp to run my two oz audio tens later this summer. What are you planning on running with these and maybe i can help ya find a hifonics for less. |

Bronze Member Username: HiphopanonymousPost Number: 87 Registered: Dec-03 | i was planning to run an amp on 2 12" type r's. they're DVC 4 ohm, so i figure, i might just wire them down to 1 ohm instead of 4 ohms, which i currently have them on right now. i know that if i get a 1000 watt rms amp on them, i might be overpowering them, but they seem like they're taking 800 rms just fine, and they seem hungry for more. plus, i wanted the class d technology, so it'll be more efficient. from another post, someone said that he's seen hifonics break down so many times. is that true? |
|
Silver Member Username: JayjPost Number: 213 Registered: May-04 | Dude those subs have an RMS of 100-300. You got them 200watts over powered. You would be best to stay with what you got. Are you could get a JBL 600.1 the power them right. You are lucky you still have them. And I'm the one that said I've seen Hifonics amp fail. This is because I have a friend that has bought 3 of them and all 3 failed on him in about a 5 month period. Plus he has some friends that have had the same problem. So everyone can say I don't know what I'm talking about if they want but I've seen them fail so say what you will.Maybe they just got bad products but 3 in a row give me a break what are the chances of that. |

Bronze Member Username: GrmncrsnbrVA Post Number: 89 Registered: Jun-04 | lol now see why could you have posted that when i was looking for amps hahahaha well back to the ol drawing board for me |

New member Username: OnthelowFt drum, Ny Us Post Number: 10 Registered: Feb-04 | by the way, I think they both are good amps. I have the 16 MC1300D, love it. Also I have a friend with a Mono Hifonics amp great sound & output. |
