I still have my 15" sundowns and I've recently been offered a pretty good deal on this amp. I was wondering if it's better than my current amp found here.

Probably not

Why wouldn't it? Just curious

There would be no audible difference.

isn't the hfi series kind of crappy though? Just what I've heard on here and SMD, i'm thinking more along the lines of longevity not necessarily audible difference

Meh.

You personally would stick with the hifonics?

Only garbage on SMD

If the price is THAT great then why not.. but why change when there are no likely benefits?

I just question the longevity and overall quality of the hifonics. I got it for free so i'm really not losing if I blow it I was just wondering if the AQ is of better quality than the hifonics

What are the specifics of the "good deal"?

Dont really want to put the full specifics out but let's just say damn near free

Dont really want to put the full specifics out but let's just say damn near free

Well if you don't want us to know then why ask? Are you performing sexual favors for it or something?

No but last time I put out a good deal I got tons of pm asking for hook ups. I was just wondering if it would be worth it to sell my hifonics and pick up the aq

Its always nice to have a spare amp or two...... or half dozen or so

i would most likely sell the hifonics to get the aq

Sell them both and buy a real amp.

The AQ is a much better choice than hifonics.It may not be the best but they are good!

Sell them both and buy a real amp.

define a real amp

A genuine, not counterfeit, artificial, or imitation electronic device that takes a small electric signal and converts it into a large one.

I meant what amp is he thinking. I don't like this hifonics at all its makes my subs sound muddy no matter how I tune it so an upgrade is in the near future. Really don't want to go over $350-$400 and probably right around 1500 rms

I do not like anything owned by Maxxsonics.

List of my choices-

Crescendo Audio

Sundown Audio

DC Soundlab

Audiopipe - APK

All of these offer great CS and expected performance.

M5, what amps were you thinking?

I don't like this hifonics at all its makes my subs sound muddy

That's more than likely not the amp's fault.

Than what is it? It's the only thing that's changed in my system. This is the only amp i've used that sounds muddy. I also have 2 people i know that have similar issues with the same line of amp. just saying
