i am working on low budget.. i was looking to buy 2 amps for around 300 each so i was looking more at the kicker refurbished amp. i dont think there will be any problems due to it is refurbished??? thanks

i dont think refurbished amps are bad, ive read around this site from dozens of people buying refurb. products and they run great.. just make sure that it comes with some sort of warrenty though, its good insurance

hifonics are decent amps but from what everyone says there overrated with the specs.. i have a hifonics amp myself and its decently good, no problems are anything... but i know its probably not putting out the recommended watts... other than that, hifonics are great budget amps

um...please don't give advice anymore //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif thx

OP: you can get zx1000s refurbed, from AUTHORIZED dealers for less than $300 ea. Personally...I'd go that route.

edit: Does the 1606 do full power @ 2 ohms or 1? are your subs d2 or d4?

wow. little off there bud. kicker would be the better route if you got the cash. the hifonics is overrated and not as clean as the kicker amps. good luck on your choice

of all the amps i've ever had, Rockford had the cleanest SQ of every amp i've used //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/imo.gif.3a57bcc70a4835dc53e86ffae1a0b041.gif was expensive but great quality. I've never had a Kicker amp, i guess i should buy one and see how they compare. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/ponder.gif.ec2527b23f1d287b60dcbba54f95edba.gif

may i ask why?

Probably because you have no clue WTF you are talking about?

 

[mike dressure 10+ year member]

may i ask why?

give advice but dont say something you truly dont know. hifonics amps arent that clean especially compared to a kicker. its ok we all make mistakes lol. god knows how many ive made:crap:

 

[stratastic 10+ year member]

and why do you say that

maybe i havent worked with that exact hifonics amp but in my experience they have **** good sound

but then again i have friends that can afford the more expensive stuff

 

[mike dressure 10+ year member]

if you can get your hands on any both of these amps, test them and you will see why we say this. ive owned a bx1500d and a kicker 800.1 and the kicker was way better in the clean department and it gave plenty of power

this is the amp ive heard

ive never heard any kicker amp

i just know that everybody likes a different sound and we will disagree most of the time

we all like to voice our opinions, so how can you say one is better than the other when we like something else

no hurt feelings here
