[QUOTE="kr15, post: 6722863, member: 620194"] yea, 200 is about my limit. I supposed I might afford 250. If i sold the Fosgate, I might be able to add another 50$ or so. I seen some good deals on Brutus amps. Ive seen the BXi1600d for as low as 150...I know they wont do rated power, but what can I reasonably expect? Will the 1600 do 1200 at 1ohm? Meaning about 75% of its rated power? More, Less? I know they draw current because I believe the bxi1600 has 2 80 amp fuses Many people have told me that if im gonna go the way of Hifonics, Im better off keeping my Fosgate 800a2. I had a small 2 channel Hifonics, and I was actually impressed with it for the price. A TXi 4008 brand new for 80$ and it pushed 2-12s at 2ohm mono (which it wasnt supposed to do) and pushed them fairly hard and rarely cut out..I supposed if the Brutus can do at least 75% of rated Id get one. Even 1200rms for 150 or so is still a good price. Although, I know the watts Hifonics throws are kind of "sloppy watts" if that makes sense [/QUOTE]
