RMS of Hifonics amps?

[icemayne696 10+ year member]

Does anyone know the Rms wattage of the hifonic amps at 1 ohm? Like the hx1000 and hx1500d amps? On their website they say 1000 and 1500, but not rms

That is the RMS. Realistically, expect at least 100 watts off of that, since the amps are rated at 14.4 volts.

its about 1500 watts rms

I don't know I have seen 2 Hifonics 1500's metered and both their output was significantly different maybe 150 watts. Just what we noticed, could be nothing or everthing.

On this amp and many more a 2 volt drop can make a big difference. Most cars run somewhere in the middle @13.8 and that is why the 14.4 is misleading, always take a good 10% off or so on the RMS when they rate the amp at 14.4.

1000wattsRms@14.4

800wattsRms@12.5
