I'm gonna get the new FiQ12 sub which can easily handle 1000wrms, so i've been looking for a 1000 watt amp.

First, I was thinking of buying an Alpine PDX 1000.1, then I thought I should go with a used JL Slash 1000/1, but now that ive seen Hifonics new Brutus BRZ 1700.1D amp im having second thoughts about JL.

Accoring to MaxxonicsUSA this amp puts out 1700wrms @ 1ohm, 1200wrms @ 2ohms and 600wrms @ 4 ohms. I dont know much about this brand. Can anyone who has owned this brand line share their thoughts with me?

$329.99 at SonicElectronix, this amp seems like a very good deal.

Here is a video of it on Youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C2jvES0FIu8

Hifonics makes good amps. I have a friend who is sponsored by Maxxonics, and I belive is a dealer for them. He loves their stuff.

Thanks Glasswolf, I'll take your word for it.

Price tag is unbeatable for a 1700 watt quality amp. Glad I came across it.

Also look at an AudioQue AQ1200D for $250 shipped. I used to own a AQ2200d and loved it.

Here's the amp:

I haven't looked yet but if the sub can be wired 1ohm I would go width the rockford fosgate p10001bd or the fosgate. T10001bd both amps put out 1000rms at 1ohm.I personally run the p10001 and I've owned well over 60-70 amps of all brands and my opinion this is in a league of its own!! Oh yes put a meter to it at the shop and it was putting out a lil over 1170rms so its underated as well lol

I've got a single Fi Q 18 in a sealed enclosure, driven with an Orion 2250SX bridged @ 4 ohms, putting out right around 1500WRMS pre-amped with a 300PRQ and crossed over with a 200CRX @ about 50Hz. I'm very happy with it. I'm sure you'll be very happy with the Q12

Oh yes, you will be very happy with the Q, as a previous owner of a pair of 15" Q's.
