after waiting a month i finially got this in the mail today.

it was a big step for me to move into hifonics because of all the controversy that surrounds this company. but regardless, can`t wait to hook it up.

 

haha yup I remember reading how their marketing department put out a company biography that was blatent bullsh!t


anyone have a link to that ??

 

that thing is pretty slick looking

 

Mine's been going strong for a year and a half at 1 ohm, bx 1205d by the way. I think they had a soldering problem in pre 2004 models. Anyway, a close to 1200 watt amp(even if it's over rated by 200 watts) for $300.00 brand new is a great deal in my books. I'll knock on wood just in case though!

i saw some birth sheets for the 1500 models and the actual ratings were around 1200 rms. regardless hifonics gives you good bang for the buck.

 

Sweet!!! Get it hooked up yet to those animals?

 

I assumed it was over rated based on the fuse rating of 80 amps for a 1200 watt output. It would have to be 104% efficient at 14.4 volts. They do use a maxi fuse though and it is possible that the engineers decided to place a smaller than normal fuse as added protection, given that those fuses may allow a significantly higher amount of current to pass for a longer period without blowing. As it is, I have yet to see an actual un-biased test report as to the actual output...I know it's more than enough power for my set up, so it really is a non issue for me. It would be nice to know though.

 

i pulled this from another forum.
