Strapping amps can sometimes be easier, BUT if the strapping module on one of the amps goes bad it can take both amps out. I had that happen to a pair of Crescendo 3500's, ended up ruining both amps to the point they would no longer strap and would sometimes not work.

What didn't you like about the H1396? I like a smooth, natural sound from my tweeters with a little bit of sparkle. I want cymbals to sound like cymbals, not frying bacon. No snakelike sibilance.

My normal commute ranges from around reference level and sometimes higher. Probably not the best thing in the world for my ears, but I like to feel my music and I'm not just talking about sub-bass.

Same here only mine is a BRX1600.1D and I also run a ZRX1000.4 for my cabin mids and tweets that I love. Both are flawless amps. The bad name that hifonics has gotten is unfair to say the least...although I will mention that since Maxxsonics took over...some things changed for the worse. That being said these amps are perfectly capable of performing at rates of higher priced amps...they run cool, they are rated pretty truely, and they are tanks, that last for years and years(my brother has an old Titan from early 2000 that just wont stop, lol). I will always stand behind Hifonics amps, but the rest of their line up, ie. speakers, be it subs or mids are no good after Maxxsonics took over. Honestly their AMPS IMHO are a Tremendous Value!!! Just like the woofers you can find in this forum- They are cheaply priced but at the same time they really put out when it comes to quality, performance and endurance. A lot of people will hate on them just because of the price factor alone, but they don't realize that they just bought a BAD ASS, SSA or Fi, etc...Woofer, that was priced cheaply but will hold their own against nearly ANY other mainstream brand of woofer. Not too mention that the customer service from Hifonics themselves is very good and they are almost always vigilant when it comes to their customers satisfaction ...I currently am looking into the Brutus Elite series as a possible upgrade. The main stream woofers and amps have totally lost my attention since my current build listed in my sig.

I have a Hifonics BRX2000.1D Absolutely love it. Have had it a little over a year and not a single issue. http://www.amazon.com/Hifonics-BRX2000-1D-Vehicle-Subwoofer-Amplifier/dp/B00BHSTVQS
