i have a change to get two new hifonics gx 4000D, are these reliable amps on 12 volt?

and how long will they last at 0.5 ohm?

In my opinion...NO AMP WAS DESIGNED TO RUN AT 1/2 ohm. Other than people trying to create magic smoke by over running them or their amount of voltage on hand. I am sure they are a nice amp.

MMATS would probably say otherwise since some of their competition amps are designed to run at 1/2 ohm. At the same time, they probably will recommend something other than their .5 ohm stable amps for daily use.

Regardless, .5 is too close to a theoretical short for me and I would rather run two amps @ 1 ohm each than one amp at .5.

Or get a two ohm amp!

It isn't the first time either

We also agreed in your install thread where everyone was slamming you even though you were not 100% complete. IMHO, It is pointless to make anything look neat, prim, proper, and show car ready if you aren't fricking done.

I have even come to realize that Hifonics amps aren't as bad as I once said they were either. Another one of my friends is running a BXi 1606D that has been to hell and back with him since he totaled TWO vehicles with that amp installed in each of them. It is STILL going strong despite going through two crashes.

Oh crap, it is indeed the end of the world as we know it.//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif
