IMO, hifonics 2005 line pretty good. (no kicker or RF...but still decent)
Their XX lines are good. Like the Colosus, Goliath, Hercules, and Maxximus. (i would love to have a Hercules)
Their has always been a saying that hifonics only does ~70-80% of their rated power...but i for one think that their 2005 line can actually do their rated power. (or very close to it at 14.4V)
But i would still get one size larger than i really needed if i bought hifonics. (if i needed 1200w+ i would get the Bx1605 instead of the Bx1205d)
Maxxsonics as a whole is becoming a better company. Dam decent budget amps.
i have a BX1205 and it runs 2 new vmaxs (600 RMS each) pretty hard, i might have to invest in a new 1606 or somthin if they are gettin better. i think they realized that they were getting a bad rep and maxxsonics is probly a little more established than last year so i would think theyd be a little better
