hifonics brutus 1210D, I love mine. Clean, efficent, never lets me down

I heard really good things about the Audiopipe 1500d, u can get it for around $180, its rated at 1500 watts at 1ohm, or the new Audiopipe 1800d, which can be had for $200 and it does around 1800 watts at 1ohm, depending on how u wire the sub and set the gain, they wont be to much for the sub. Best bang for the buck amps.

ok guys i need a few more opinions please, im trying to order this thing soon.

so far i have heard

Audiopipe 1500d

and

hifonics brutus 1210D

and then this guy is selling his USamps XT4000D for some reason.

Which one would you guys go with???

 

[MikeyF 10+ year member]

save a few more bucks and get the AQ1200

This. Or check out Craigslist for like a Kicker ZX1200.1 or somthing around there.

 

[schackel 10+ year member]

get that US amps 4000D its super sick 175 shipped will be perfect! it in the classifieds

 

[MasonSS 10+ year member]

FML.

almost every response is a different amp.

I kinda have my eyes on that US amp shit but will i get the warranty with it?

That USamp for $175 shipped looks like a good deal. Don't know much about USamps, but I heard they are very solid. 1500w @ 1ohm for $175 is a steal.

Just bought an AQ1200 today. Too bad I didn't see that post earlier, I might have shot him a pm for the amp.

But it's all good, i'm satisfied with my purchase. Can't wait for the AQ goods to arrive.

Perhaps you can search classifieds for an ED Nine.1?

We used the xt4000d for a 6 10w1 install and it did well. It is their lowest line amplifier and doesn't get the best of reputations, but is a solid amp. No, you won't get an warranty purchasing through the classifieds here. I'd just go w/ the audiopipe.
