Team Maxxonics. How would you compare the new hifonics amps to the old ones?

My guess is you are refering to the older (pre-API) XI, XII, & VIII series.

Those were fantastic amps in there day.

We make 3 levels of Hifonics Titan (good) Zeus (better) and XXV (best).

The XXV are actually as better amp then our older models.

They are not designed to run at .25 and .5-Ohms like the old ones because it just isn't necisary these days.

However, for puire SQ with low THD & N, incredibly high Damping factors, low channel seperation better components... the XXV is a better amp.

This will of course cause some of the old fans to disagree (because they have not seen the XXV series) but the engineer that designed the amps back then would tell you the same thing because he designed the XXV.

Yes they were. And still are.. My very first amp i ever bought was a Xi odin and a 15in sub. And went through a few more. For such a small amp it put out incredible performance.

Interesting comments on the XXV.

Didn't Steve Mantz design the series VIII?

Or just up through series VII?

Ya, I thought I would get flamed but you can't argue about what you don't know.

so... do these put out rated power, unlike my bx1500's and a few other models? (its been 1-2 yrs, since ive had them wondering if quality improved)...

Why are there so many models? I mean there are like 3 lines of Crunch, 3 lines of Hifonics, and a few Autotek I think. Just marketing?

It's like most things in consumer electronics.

Good, better and best.

Where do the Brutus amps fall in to your rating category??
