  • Buy it!!! Don't think about it, just buy itttt!!! :)
Size: 3000 Watt Style: Mono Block Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
Yes, Go ahead and buy it💯✅️ This thing is worth every penny and I can assure you will not regret this as long as you know what you want and you understandyour setups. For the first time in my life I'm getting quality base out of my subwoofer. With this brutus you get power and quality at the same time....even if its old school, still its 2024 and all i can say is that old is gold :) I have been really saving for one year to buy this mono and finally the long wait is over. I bought this a week ago and took it to my local installer to set it up for me on my head unit. During the test, it pushed his two rockville d415" 1500rms(both at 3000rms) at 1 ohms like they were nothing.....it made those two subwoofer speakers beat hard and properly like its supposed to, lol. I'm now running it on my skar evl 15 d2 single at my house home but I'm planning to add same evl but swap it to two d4 to get 1 ohm . I'm telling you this mono with my single 15" evl runs very well, its 1250rms....i think it was made for it. I feel the base all around my Skin and skin hairs😄 all the way to my chest when it pounds or hits the base and at the same time its deafening in a very good and soft way. The mono doesn't even get warm with my single evl d2. But during the test with those two 15s rockville it got warm but nothing beyond that as we ran it for some few hours to make sure the item performs like it should. So its fair to say its build quality is superb 👌 👏 👍 and also it lights and glows very weĺl at night which makes me more happier when i look at it. It also has a good subsonic filter to protect my subwoofer from extremely low bases and the best part is that its lpf starts from 30, I am a die hard fan of soft, low and quality base and this brutus does it✊️✅️💯. My wiring is 2awg and i use power supply of 240 amperes to run it independently. Soon enough im upgrading it to 350 amperes then swith fully to two 15"D4s. I can agree its power hungry and for those planning to buy it make sure you use 2awg or 1/0awg cables and good furrels and good power or serious battery and it'll serve you well. It came with base knob, lan key, mounting screws stickers and small manual. Ooh, item is very big and heavy but still like it the way it is Ill upload small videos soon....Otherwise I'll keep posting how it is with time but for now I'm very happy with this thing, thank you hifonics! Update....1 I remember during the test with my installer, my 100amp fuse blew, so ive ordered 500amp and 300amp new fuses from amazon, atleast I'll be able to run it hard...for now, not much base and volume ... show more

  • Budget meets power. Not exactly 3000rms but huge power.
Size: 3000 Watt Style: Mono Block Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
300 dollars for this amount of clean sounding power is certainly a great deal. Amp does get hot, although I run it for at least an hour straight on 90 degree weather with my gain just a bit over matching my head unit. This needs power. 2AWG or 0 g international is a must and it needs at least a 200 amp fuse just after the battery (for 1 ohm load). I have a 300 amp alternator with the proper big 3 upgrade and it absolutely slams. Dual yellow optima batteries in series. Should be about perfect for this monster. You need well built subs to reach full potential. Set it up correctly. Use large decent quality wiring and the big 3 upgrade. Having a better alternator and more than 1 battery will help. SET YOUR GAIN RIGHT IT IS NOT A VLUME KNOB. Find out your rms watts out of your receiver. My Kenwood is 2 volts rca out. I usually draw out the gain knob and measure lines to find what is close to matching since I do not have any equipment from Steve Meade. Gain can commonly be between 1/2 and 2/3rds tops. For best quality don't bass boost. Once the amp reaches full output it overrides it anyway, not worth clipping. Other nice features are phase shift, center frequency, wavelength adjustment along with the more standard hpf and lpf. You don't see these on other budget amplifiers. I am assuming the efficiency is fair. Never blew a 200 amp fuse. This Brutus 3016.1 D is paired up with my CT Sounds Exo 15 D2 wired to 1 ohm. This sub is rated at 2500 RMS 5000 watt peak, and believe me... it pounds. At least a 3 inch excursion and I have not had a mechanical bottom even with frequencies between 25-35 hertz. Absolutely worth every penny. The sub-woofer weighs 75 pounds. I fit these in a tight spaced convertible trunk and I've already had police complaints. This is the biggest mono-block class D amp Hifonics makes currently with the exception of the Elite and Goliath etc. It does get hot, but it's on the brink of insanity. It's not exactly a certified 3000 watts RMS, but I bet it'll pass a Dynamic burst test with good voltage. Get this amp. Thumbs up! Update. I purchased this in 2016. it is almost 2023. I sent it to hell and back and then again. Although the blue led lights stopped working this thing still sounds like I just bought it. Non stop hearing loss and loosening objects on vehicle. Verified heard from 3 or 4 blocks away. Sounds incredible in my Mountaineer aka ford explorer. Flexes the darn roof like a wave pool. Amazing for under 300 dollars. ... show more

  • Cost versus quality
I used to work at a stereo shop a few decades ago. I remember Hiphonics from back then and had very good luck so figured I’d try it on my son’s first car audio install. So far it seems to have good sound quality for 2 10” subs. I ran 1/0 power and ground knowing about voltage drop ect. The terminals were more for 6 to 8 gauge so had to cut down the larger wire to make it fit. It brought back great memories and a new one of a very happy son! Mom however is not so happy since we now know when he comes home by the vibrations in our house. Great little amp and very impressed by the price!!! ... show more

  • You HAVE to wire it correctly ya amateurs
Size: 3000 Watt Style: Mono Block Product Packaging: Standard Packaging
I’ve had the Brutus 3016.1 for roughly 3 years, problem free. It makes my 15” RF P2’s pound so hard you can feel it vibrate your skin. It’s rattled the rear lights loose on my SUV. The rear view mirror is now just for looks because it rattles out of adjustment within seconds of positioning it. Based on a large amount of the less than stellar reviews that I’ve seen, I’m lead to believe they’re not installing it properly. Every complaint about it going into protect mode tells me that they weren’t using a proper ground. If you aren’t using AT LEAST 2ga wiring, you haven’t earned the right to complain. Period. If you feed this amp proper power and proper ground, you won’t have any issues. That being said, it is not reaching 3,000 watts. With the gain set to the half way point, and LPF all the way up, using a 40hz test tone, it hit 2200 watts at 1ohm on the amp dyno. Even still, to get 2200 watts out of a Rockford fosgate amp, you’re going to pay $1,500. All in all, it’s a nice amp at a nice price, it’s cost per watt is very low versus most name brand amps. If you power and ground it with a minimum of 2ga wiring you won’t have issues and your ride will set off car alarms within a 50 yard radius. ... show more
