Sq 2200 or B2 mono v4?

I've read nothing but good reviews about both brands but just wanted to know from peeps that ran these before, which is a better buy and more efficient? The cost of these are not that much of difference and can't make up my mind.

I have the Quattro. Have had it for 2 years now. Love this little beast has nice features as well. Haven't played with the sq tho

There where some videos and people saying the sq2200 had the same guts as a hifonics. I don't know if that I'd the case. But you can't wrong with either. I have the soundqubed 1200 and love it.

Edit: here is the video


So i wonder if you couldnt get hifonics for cheaper.

I see...yeah I'm leaning towards B2 as well but just came across an Alpine PDX M12 yesterday. Do you guys know if they are 1 ohm stable?

This questionable. I see sq2200 being run .5 all the time but no one dares run the Hifonics like that

I agree, I would still rather have a sq2200 over a hifonics, i was only pointing it out. I just wondered how big of a difference there was, i mean that price is cheaper.

I ran a bxi1610 d like that. Took it fine and worked okay got only warm. Ran two brx2400.1 like that, got hot, didnt gain too much and efficiency tanked, a dc 3.5k at 1 ohm utterly destroyed the two combined. A banda 7k utterly destroyed the dc 3.5k and they both costed me the same.

Tldr: just my sub amp history in the past few years

Sound wise and actual real life performance is completely different. @C1500martin can attest to how many ppi/hifonics to soundqubed swaps he did and everytime the qubed always turned out noticeably better in actual sound quality and output.
