Posted February 21, 201213 yr Has anyone used or heard about this amp. http://www.sonicelectronix.com/item_23550_Hifonics-Brutus-BRZ2400.1D.htmlI'm pretty sure I'm buying it but want to see if any of you guys know anything about it. I have the big 3 and a yellow top under the hood and a fairly large stock alt so I should be good volt wise. Any help??
February 21, 201213 yr What's your budget? What subwoofer(s) do you have? Better options can be found.
February 21, 201213 yr Admin What are your needs from an amplifier? Many times sacrificing power for quality will pay off in the long term.
February 21, 201213 yr Author i'm running 2 sa-15 in a 7cuft box. My budget is probably a max off 350 and i just figured the hifonics would be a decent amp because it is cea certified so i would be getting 2400 rms
February 24, 201213 yr Author if there are better options in my price range where should i look. I want an effecient amp at around 2000-2400 watts rms
February 25, 201213 yr If you don't mind used, you have several nice options with a budget of ~$350 or so. Crescendo BC2000, DC 2k, DD M2, SAZ1500-2000 are just a few that come to mind.
February 25, 201213 yr where do i go about buying a used amp? Right here at SSA in the classifieds section you'll find some.... DB-R has refurbished/repaired Sundown amplifiers
February 25, 201213 yr You don't need any where near that much power for those woofers. Yes, people do it, but they usually know what they are doing and have been doing it a while.You only need around 1,500w to get full potential out of those 15"s in that size enclosure.
February 25, 201213 yr Author i know how to hook it all up and avoid clipping and all that junk and everyone one i've talked to including the dealer said they don't really start to get loud until around 1000 rms a piece so i'm going big.

In fact, once you reach a certain level power compression begins to set in and each successive increase in power will increase output by a successively smaller amount.
