[QUOTE="quackhead, post: 7783875, member: 573547"] The Brutus series has been revamped and actually split into two lines, the BRZ1200D and the new and improved BRE1100D I have used the older (5+ yrs old) Brutus BXI1205D. I loved that amp, never heated up and pushed the crap out of 2 15's. The new Zeus 1000 specs a lot like the old Brutus BXI and about the same price, but I have not put my hands on one yet.(same for the Gladiator line) I seen reports of the BRZ having reliability issues, but this could be due to user error as well. The BRE specs like the older BXI too, but runs about $100 more. You have to understand too that 1000's of the Hifonics are sold vs 100's of a similar competitor, therefore it would make sense to hear of a few more issues due to the sheer # of them being used. As far as getting sheer power close to rated, I feel comfortable saying "Go For It!" [/QUOTE]
