i just bought the new 2005 model hifonic amplifier. it is the bx2005d. this is the new one and i herd that they are supposed to put out their rated power because hifonics changed the ratings or something like that. can anyone with info fill me in on the ratings and reliability of the new hifonic amps??

It is wise to know what a product is about before purchasing it, unless you have a good return policy available. This amplifier, luckily, sounds pretty beastly.
RMS @ 4-Ohm: 1 x 650-Watts
RMS @ 2-Ohm: 1 x 1300-Watts
RMS @ 1-Ohm: 1 x 2000-Watts

i think what he was asking was whether or not Hifonics amps perform as good as they say on paper. If bench tested at 1-ohm...will the amp really push out 2000 watts or whatever it says

I know previous Hifonics amps POUND, (zues, colossis, etc) and still fetch a pretty penny on ebay. not sure about the new ones but for a long time they were UNDER rating everything for competition I.E. if you amp sayes 200 watts at 1 ohm it could handle pushing 500w at 1 ohm, ya know what I mean?

the was one amp from Orion rated at 1 watt @ 16 ohms, but it was HUGE...lol and 1/4 ohm stable.

thankx for the debating guys. . .i hope this amp will perform like everyone says it will. I really want to take pics of my camry and make a name for myself here on the forums. I have a 40 farad batcap, 2 awg wire going to it, 2 12" mmat P.3 subs in a slot ported box. Gets pretty loud. Oh and i am running the old soundstream rubicon 1002 amp. i herd these was mean back in the day so i grabbed one and come to find out. . .it is solid. Thankx again guys for the help.

Sounds cool man, looking forward to some pics. What kind of camry do you drive(year/model/eng/trans)

good luck with it...I had the same questions when I was looking for an amp, went with MTX for the fact that they had the birth certificate in th box....answered all my questions, more companies need to do this
